Exactly what I wanted for a day visit. Janine was informative and genuinely interested in sharing Bergen with our group. I learned a good deal and appreciated her patience in answering questions while sharing interesting personal stories.
I highly recommend this tour.
The owner of the company is a delight as well and keeps a caring eye on the group.

We loved this tour and our guide Fabiola was excellent! She effortlessly blended historical information with personal stories that made us feel very connected to everything she told us. Besides visiting a number of beautiful location she also took us on a few spontaneous stops when the opportunity presented itself. We also really enjoyed learning from a local about present day Norway and how the country is run. Overall an unexpectedly fantastic tour when we found ourselves with a few extra hours in Bergen!

We had a 2-hour city tour in Bergen with our guide Neil. Neil took us to all interesting sights of the city center and gave us a lot of information about the city and the country. All in all a very nice experience and a great way to get a basic orientation of the city if it is your first time there.
