Summary

Your private 2-hour tour starts with a hotel pickup around 10am or 10:30am. You’ll be transported by private car around Bergen. This tour takes you to places by car, but then lets you also explore on foot, so please be prepared to do some walking during the tour. First begin at the UNSECO World Heritage Site of Bryggen. Walk the wharf, and take in stunning sights of the area while your guide fills you in on important historical tidbits. Hear stories about the wharf being a secret hideout during World War II and daily life during the medieval times. Next, your guide takes you over to one of Norway’s oldest castles, Bergenhus Fortress. Catch a glimpse of Rosenkrantz Tower and Mount Fløyen before hopping back in your private vehicle. After your tour ends, your guide takes you back to where he or she picked you up from — your hotel.
