History, spectacular views, an ancient Viking church, walking through Bryggen Wharf, and a museum! This compact trip showed us the old, the new, and many wonders of Bergen in only 5 hours. The Viking church was unique and seemed a combination of many cultural elements in its architecture.

We hit all the highlights in charming Bergen. The ride on the funicular to the top with amazing views of Bergen. It was a rainy day but that did not stop our day. Our guide has complimentary large umbrellas to use. The Grieg museum and home was so interesting. Five hours was not enough time but we experienced the most from our trip only made possible from our organized snd delightful tour guide!!! We will be back to Bergen and stay days to enjoy the culture of the city!

We got Vlad as our driver/guide and had the best time ever. Our group was late and he patiently waited for us, and then gave us one of the best experiences ever. We were a group of yarnlovers and he took us to 2 yarn factories, arranged a small tour for us there, showed us some waterfalls outside the city, stopped for toilet breaks and chatted and laughed with us. He was so knowledgeable and this was an excellent way to see the sights of Bergen. We can highly recommend him and this tour to anyone.

Vlad is a great tour guide. He met us at the cruise pier on time, and his Mercedes V fits 6 of us perfectly. He loves Bergen and he tried to present all the best things about Bergen to us. He also made the best effort to introduce the history and culture of Bergen and we all felt that we were getting so familiar with this pretty city at the end of the tour. Well done, Vlad.
