Tour was excellent. Our friends have visited Bergen and recommended us food tasting Tour suggested by Vinoltours. Tour program is logical. Firstly walking Tour in Old quarters of the city. The second part return Funicular trip, at the end food tasting program. The main part of food tasting was suggested at the Fish Market. Creamed Norwegian fish soup, pieces of 5 types of local goat cheese, pieces of smoked salmon and salami from game meat and delicious dessert with apple pie. Excellent program and knowledgedebl guide!

We have spent in Bergen 4 days. We ordered 2 tours from Vinol Tours. The idea to book three summit hike came after our firstexperience with Vinol Tours. Food tasting was perfect. Smoked salmon, king crab legs, creamed fish soup, brown goat cheese, salami made from reindeer and elk meat. it was delicious lunch with considerable portions. Finally we got sweet presents from the tour organiser - arctic cherries and arctic blueberries covered in dark chocolate. Delicious production from Tromso

We have booked a private tour. We have chosen Vinol Tours agency. My wife prefer tours with food tasting in every new country when we are traveling . One of tours that includes local food tasting was on the list of Vinol Tours. 3 hour tour offers walking tour in the medieval parts of Bergen, return Funicular trip to the top of the city mountain and local food tasting in restaurant. Amazing views of the sea and islands along the shore line stored now in our camera. Food tasting in reality was 3 course lunch (more than we expected): fish soup, different types of smoked salmon, cured meat, and delicious dessert! Full picture of local history plus nice examples of Norwegian kitchen!

We ordered this tour, because of the maximum information that you can get from walking tour in Bergen. Just walking tour without Floibanen trip in Bergen, this is not enough to become familiar with this historical city of Bergen. Old quarters of Bergen gave us enough information to understand why Norwegian kings decided to move their capital from Trondheim at the North to Bergen Fjord area. Great location. Big bonus if this is sunny day and you can enjoy panoramic views of medieval city from the top of Floien that is the most popular mountain in Bergen with the lookout place at the summit. That was good that our guide brought prebooked funicular tickets, We escaped long waiting time with people buying funicular tickets. My recommendation is always to add funicular return trip to your walking or sightseeing tour in Bergen.

Bergen is a city that is always mentioned as the city with wet weather. our guide told us that a couple of years ago Bergen became the city records-man with the period of 81 day with rains. Bergen used to be the capital of Norway in medieval centuries. The city became the center of trade. German trading Hanseatic League opened in Bergen its international trading Office. Stock fish, cod liver oil in barrels and round wood - there were main export articles at that time. We were impressed by medieval spirit that preserved merchant houses at Bruggen. This area is protected by UNESCO today. Funicular brought us to the summit of the city mountain Floien from where we set on a walking tour to the view point at the top of Blamanen mountain. This is a nice place!
