Immerse yourself in the charm of Bergen from the comfort of a modern electric bus on this intimate guided tour. Led by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, you’ll be treated to fascinating tales and historical insights that breathe life into the scenery and architecture of the Gateway to the Fjords. 

 From the port, we’ll head into the centre via Nordnes, a kilometre-long peninsula that stretches into Bergen harbour. This historic neighbourhood was where merchants developed their trade in the 16th and 17th centuries, and for many years it was also the site of public executions. We then continue to Muséplassen for a short photo stop by the famous Christiestøtten statue in front of the University Museum. 

 From here, we’ll drive to the city’s most famous attraction – the charming, UNESCO-listed harbour district of Bryggen. This stretch of colourful wooden wharf houses was first constructed in the Middle Ages but has since been re-built several times after fires. Walking through its narrow alleyways feels like stepping back in time.
