The journey includes a minimum of four stops for photo opportunities and encompasses the historic city centre, the Nordnes peninsula, the Puddefjord shoreline and park, the hillside community hovering over the city, and the age-old Sandviken fishing village. All locations are locally-curated, making it far from your typical bus tour! As we progress from stop to stop, your guide will enrich you with stories about Bergen’s past and present.
