Bergen, Norway

A Snapshot of Bergen

Sites and Heights See Bergen both up close and from a bird’s-eye perspective on this expansive tour. With your guide, pass the medieval fortress at the entrance to the harbor. Stroll along the seafront to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bryggen, the picturesque wharf that helped put Bergen at the center of the Hanseatic League. Visit the Schøtstuene Museum and explore its multipurpose rooms in which wealthy Hanseatic merchants gathered during the winter months. Embark on a scenic drive through the city for a visit to the elegant Fantoft Stave Church. Built entirely of wood in 1150, it was moved to this site in 1883 to preserve it as part of the nation’s heritage. Return to the city where you will ascend Mt. Fløien via funicular railway. From the summit, enjoy spectacular views of Bergen’s seaside setting before returning to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
