A fantastic private tour that takes us literally all over the city from the top to the wharf along the cobblestone streets and into the neighborhoods. Not only did we get information on how people are living today our guide even had Internet photos of what it looked like back at different times in the history. Shared with us the different Countries that have occupied Bergen and explained why the city is built as it is on an active seaport based around fishing in timber. Couple streets were amazing and the tiny pathways between the small wooden homes definitely needed a guide so you would not get lost! The fish market with his fresh seafood was a delight and really enjoyed the funicular to the top of the mountain to see the view of all Bergen. Pointing out the historical features from the dates on the buildings to the special designs that indicated what type of business it was all the way down to the special colors of paint on the houses indicating the wealth of the neighborhood the historical tower and Fort were amazing to have been built so long ago. Perfect weather ordered for a day walking around the town we covered almost 10 miles in and out of the tiny corridors and special areas of Bergen.

Tommy is an outstanding guide through beautiful Bergen. As we walked the old town, he shared the highlights of the history and geography of the town. He was also very open to sharing about life in Norway. Also gave us excellent tips about other stops on our trip.

We were wondering when we found out our guides name was Teresita Maria Ortigoza Nunez, but she has been here 20 years and she was GREAT! We went up the mountain for beautiful views, visited St. Mary’s church, and the historic Bryggen district. Teresita shared a wealth of information about the city and life in Norway. Private tours are worth it because you get ALL your questions answered and see the sights that work best. She gave us a great recommendation for dinner and told me to txt with any questions while we are here.

In 15 days and over 10 guided tours throughout Norway, Teracita was the most impressive, knowledgeable, and personable guide of all the guides on our tours. She was wonderful. She avoided repeating all the statistics of Norway as was standard in nearly every sightseeing tour, instead highlighting family and social life in the country. After each colorful description she would say “This is Norway!” She was so much fun and the type of guide we hoped for.

Our guide was ok and she took us to some interesting places. However, there were some things that she didn’t take us to which we were expecting (eg Bergenhus Fortress) and some info was incorrect (such as opening times). She did provide lots of info about like in Norway which was interesting.

This was an extremely disappointing experience.
We asked for an English speaking guide and were promised a local that will share the experience of living in Bergen.
We got 2 people that showed up. Both could not speak English beyond few words!
In addition, they had no idea where to take us and asked what we want. I don't think they were local. They suggested to travel in a their car, though this is a walking tour. They looked a bit shady and we had to give up on the tour before it started.
