Overview

Bergen’s nearly 1,000-year history has shaped the city’s character, architecture, and culture. From its founding as a key trading port to its role as a bustling Hanseatic hub, Bergen’s past is filled with fascinating stories waiting to be uncovered.

On this tour, I’ll guide you through the city’s most iconic sites as well as hidden gems that many visitors overlook. We’ll explore how Bergen evolved through the ages—from the medieval Hanseatic era to its vibrant, modern-day charm.

The tour is thoughtfully divided into two themed parts, offering you a deeper understanding of Bergen’s unique heritage. Join me to experience the stories and sites that make Bergen truly special!

Part 1 - Exploring Bergen’s Center

Activity itinerary

Bergen
  • 1h 15m
Part 1 - A walk through the city In the first part of the tour, we go for a walk through the lively centre of Bergen. On our way past the fish market, the theatre and the old fire station, we encounter personalities such as Edvard Grieg and Henrik Ibsen. On our tour, however, I don't only want to bring you closer to the historical sides of the city, but also to the people of Bergen and their life in the here and now.
Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf
  • 45m
Part 2 - Bryggen and the German Hanseatic League The picturesque, colourful wooden houses in the Bryggen district are the symbol of the city. Today there are cafes, restaurants and bars among the houses, which are frequented by locals and tourists. 400 years ago, however, there was the smell of dried cod in the air, which was stored here. German merchants bought the cod from Norwegian fishermen and then exported it to all of Europe. This fish made Bergen the most important trading metropolis in Scandinavia at the time. On our way through the Bryggen World Heritage Site, I will tell you what made the fish so special, what the Hanseatic League was and how life for the German merchants played out here.
