What people are saying about Bergen

Dane is an incredible guide! He is immensely knowledgable and very personable. This tour is a fab way to introduce you to Bergen/Norway and its history. You are taken down the less trodden paths of the city, whilst learning about the charms of the buildings and its people. Ask any question and you get a detailed and well thought answer. Dane also had plenty of tips on what to visit after the tour, where to eat and drink, and where to find good live music. This company is very professional and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!

This tour was wonderful due to our excellent guide, Dane. He made the history so interesting that we were all captivated. He took us to places that only a local would know about, including a lookout over the city. He was so happy to answer questions about Bergen, but also recommended places to eat based on our tastes. After the tour, a few of us had a coffee in a local bar/Cafe with him. I would highly recommend this tour!

With only 2 days in Bergen, we wanted to get familiar with the area quickly so we could enjoy it and not miss anything. The tour did exactly that, and our guide Emma was knowledgeable and made it an enjoyable tour. The areas around Bryggen were covered well, and we neither got bored nor felt rushed. In the following day and a half, we had a great time doing what we wanted instead of trying to find our way around.

Neal Hoffmann was an excellent guide. He explained in detail the history and present Bergen. We had a great tour in the city. we learned a lot and the other group members were excellent as well.

Our guide was wonderful ! Knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend this tour to see and hear some history of Bergen .
