Beschreibung
Ride the Ulriken cable car to 643 m, explore UNESCO Bryggen, medieval Håkonshallen and Fantoft Stave Church on a guided 6-hour coach tour of Bergen's highlights.
Spend one unforgettable day discovering the very best of Bergen, from its medieval waterfront to the summit of its highest mountain. Meet your local guide at the Tourist Information by the Fish Market and settle into a comfortable coach for a scenic drive through the historic Nordnes peninsula, with a photo stop at Tollbodalmenningen overlooking the harbour.
Your first stop is Bryggen, the UNESCO World Heritage wharf whose crooked, colourful wooden houses have lined the harbour since the days of the Hanseatic League. Wander the narrow passages with your guide, then step into Bryggens Museum, built over the archaeological remains of the medieval city, to see how Bergen's merchants and townsfolk lived 800 years ago.
A short walk brings you to Håkonshallen, the great stone hall raised by King Håkon Håkonsson in the 13th century, when Bergen was the royal capital of Norway. Stand where coronations and royal feasts once took place and hear the stories of Norway's medieval kings.
Leaving the city centre, the coach continues to Gamle Haugen, the elegant Art Nouveau manor built for Prime Minister Christian Michelsen and now the Royal Family's official residence in Bergen. Stroll through the landscaped English park beside the lake before heading on to Fantoft Stave Church, a dark-timbered wooden church dating from around 1150, crowned with carved dragon heads that echo the Viking longships.
The day ends on a high note, quite literally. Board the Ulriken cable car and glide up the mountainside to 643 metres, the highest of Bergen's seven mountains. From the summit, take in sweeping views across the city, the fjords, the islands and the snow-dusted peaks beyond, with time to explore, take photos and warm up at the mountaintop restaurant before riding back down.
With coach transport, a professional local guide, cable car tickets and museum admissions all included, this is the easiest way to experience Bergen's history, heritage and mountain scenery in a single relaxed day.
