Join authorised, local guides for an authentic, small-group experience around Bergen - both the city and off-the-beaten path.

The first half of our tour focuses on Bergen's history. We wander the fortress complex, covering Bergen’s medieval history and short period as Norway's capital. After this crash course in Norwegian history, we make our way to Bryggen, Bergen’s UNESCO Site. Here, you learn about 1,000 years of trade history and the reason for Bergen’s founding and growth.

The second half of our tour is about life in Bergen. We leave the ‘touristy’ part behind and wander into the neighbourhood surrounding Bryggen. As you explore Bergen’s best kept secret, you’ll learn about everyday life. The tour ends by passing by our top picks for restaurants.

We consider this a moderate walk with stairs. The walk is approximately 3km (2 miles).

Once you book, you’ll receive a confirmation email with all the details — including where to meet, what to wear, and our contact info.

The Rosenkrantz Tower - Bymuseet I Bergen

Our tour begins by visiting the Bergen Fortress. When Bergen was the capital, this is where the palace was located. It's the best spot to start a walking tour!

Không Có Vé

Haakon's Hall - Bymuseet i Bergen

We pass by Håkon's Hall, the major part of the medieval palace still standing today. Here you learn about Bergen's time as an independent country and we also explain Norway's unions with Denmark and Sweden. Please note that we do not enter Håkons Hall (it is a museum that costs money). On rare occasions, the fortress is closed due to a private event.

Jeff was super knowledgable & friendly. He shared a mixture of historical, political & foodie facts (I won’t spoil it but there are some shocking ones in there for Bergen!). We covered lots of different areas from the fortress to hidden streets with epic views. You can tell he loves Bergen & is a great advocate, Highly recommend this tour!

A perfect walk tour and orientation to Bergen, from the balance of a historical perspective and then a walk through local neighborhoods and popular places to see, eat and explore later. Emma was our delightful, entertaining guide and we learned so much from her about historical Bergen, The Norwegian culture, and then what it’s like to live in Bergen. Topping it off, some great suggestions only a local can provide. Highly recommended!!
Amazing tour with Jeff

Absolutely brilliant tour with Emma! The first hour was historical and the second hour was focussed on what it’s like to live in Bergen and Norway, which was so insightful. She also showed us some great coffee and dinner venues. Couldn’t have been better!

Our guide for the day was Eirik and he provided my wife and I with a fascinating insight into the history of Bergen from the early settlement days right up to the present day. Of particular interest was the detail and happenings around the time of the Second World War and Norway under occupation. Also to see the old buildings and to appreciate the preservation work which is going into retaining the authentic character of the city.
Wonderful tour!

Jeff was so friendly and knowledgable. We expected to go into the city centre to be told about the main attractions but instead were over the moon to be taken from the fort into some of the back lanes and out of the way spots. He kept us entertained with facts and stories for the whole 2 hrs. It really felt like we were taken on a local tour and were discovering secret gems of places including a stop where we bought the most delicious coffee. This was a really good experience walking tour that I would highly recommend.
1000% recommend!
