Pictures from Bergen, Norway

Bergen Fish Market by Robin Strand, Visit Bergen

Enjoy pictures from picturesque Bergen –

the doorway to the Norwegian fjords. Bergen is beautifully located by the fjord, surrounded by 7 mountains.
You will find authentic areas with tiny wooden houses and narrow streets on the picturesque hillsides.
The old wooden wharf houses at Bryggen – a Unesco world heritage site, is the most famous sight in Bergen.

The heart of Bergen is the Fish market square, located in the inner part of the picturesque waterfront bay, the older part of the town.
A short walk from the Fish market you will find the Funicular; a steep railroad taking you to mount Floyen, offering a marvellous view of the town below.

Bergen coastal area

Bergen is beautifully located on the western coast of Norway, with easy access to main Norwegian fjords – the Sognefjord & the Hardangerfjord; the ideal starting point for fjord tours and fjord cruises.

The amazing coastal area of Bergen consists of several scenic island communities.
Until 1991, it was not possible to reach Bergen by car without crossing a fjord by ferry! Now several long tunnels & bridges ease the access to Bergen by car.

What our customers say:

  • Thank you for assisting us with our trip to Norway. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Kirkenes and the Snow Hotel. The arrangements you made for us were perfect. The lodging was comfortable and the excursions were fun. Tom and I rarely use the services of a travel company when we travel; you enriched our trip and made the planning easy.

  • I wanted to thank everybody. We had a wonderful trip. Everything went well and fortunately we had the chance to see the lights while on the cruise. All my friends in Turkey would like to go on a similar trip. So I will be in touch with you. Thanks again and best wishes to all of you.

  • We just recently completed the Tromso, Northern Lights & Arctic Coast tour. I am writing to say what an amazing tour we had. Everything ran smoothly without an issue, the accommodation was fantastic and the tours were brilliant. We cannot fault the package at all. I would also like to thank Franziska and Lene, they both were fantastic in answering all my questions promptly, whilst booking the tour. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable holiday!
