  • 5We had a fabulous time in...

    We had a fabulous time in the islands. Even though it was raining, we had lots to laugh about and our guide was super upbeat and engaging.

  • 5Wonderful trip, great way...

    Wonderful trip, great way to experience Norway. It rained on and off during our trip but they provided rain proof gear across the board, including gloves and hats. One of the highlights of our trip for sure.

  • 5Norway Kayaking

    Very knowledgeable guide. Superb kayaking in and around the islands north of Bergen. We are experienced kayakers and would rate this as one of our best experiences.

    Iris and Simon were simply outstanding! We were fortunate to have perfect weather and flat water, but the knowledge they shared and their friendliness and hospitality made the trip so worthwhil.

About Bergen

Bergen is Norway's rainy fjord capital, a harbour city of colourful wooden wharf houses, mountain funiculars, a fish market and the gateway to the fjords.

Bergen sits between seven hills and the sea on Norway's west coast, with the wooden buildings of Bryggen, once the Hanseatic League's trading wharf and now a World Heritage site, lined along the harbour. The steep gabled houses stand in rows with narrow passages between them. Bergenhus Fortress, with the medieval Haakon's Hall, guards the harbour mouth, and Bergen was a capital of Norway in the 13th century.

Top-ranked sights in Bergen: Mt. Floyen (Floyfjellet), Hardangerfjord, Fantoft Stave Church.
