Visitors' Testimonionals
This is a great tour of local historic landmarks and the history of Bergen. Of course it was made super interesting by our lovely tour guide Caolon (who happens to be Irish). 2 hours long and all level walking. Like all these types of tours, you need to pay the guide what you think the tour is worthat the end. There was a party of 5 in our group - half the group - who gave nothing. Sad as this will probably lead to the end of such tours. Remember you will pay $40/person for this tour with a large tour agency.
Caolan was interesting and engaging- took us on a great introduction to this lovely and compact city. His warmth and openness helped plan the rest of the trip and bring the city to life for me. Thank you also for taking us to the fortress and the history. I also enjoyed meeting the other people in the group and hear their different priorities
We attended the english tour with our guide Caolan and it was a great experience! He is well-informed, friendly and kind. We've gotten a good overview about historical facts, norwegian lifestyle and the city centre.
Caolan is an engaging and very knowledgeable Bergen tour guide. I saw his effort to provide his listeners many bits of historical side of the famous sites in Bergen. Even he's not local, he diligently put together local context and stories on people, history, a bit of politics, economy and Bergen's position in the national scene. Which made it overall a good city tour! Plus a (relatively) nice weather and it's easily 5 stars walking tour.
Our guide (he was Irish - we never got his name unfortunately!) was fantastic. Very engaging and gave us so much fascinating information about Bergen and its history. The tour was well structured and went to all the main attractions so it was a great introduction to the city. Highly recommend!
The walking tour was a great introduction to Bergen City Center! It’s quiet compact, so you don’t need to walk very far to cover all the stops. Caolán was knowledgeable and added some humor to the history, making it a lovely way to spend the morning!
