We'll show you Bergen's highlights, hidden corners, and everyday details that make locals smile. Expect laughter, legends, and plenty of "wow" moments along the way.
Guides & Languages
All tours are led by authorised local guides who live in Bergen and they're the city's best mix of storytellers, historians, and entertainers. Our team speaks English, Norwegian, German, French, Spanish, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Danish and Dutch. We have guides with PhDs in medieval history, guides who work all over the Nordics, and guides who love telling stories! Most of our guides have been working for more than five seasons – we really love this city and our job!
Who we work with
We run public and private tours for cruise guests, travel agents, private groups, and independent adventurers. Every experience can be customised - shorter, longer, with more food, more history, more hiking, or less rain (we'll do our best!).
