Heisan og velkommen til Bergen! My name is Thierry and I live in Bergen, Norway. Many years ago, I came to visit the city and fell in love. Few months later, that little inner voice, that was constantly questioning me about the purpose of my life, pushed me to change! I couldn't continue to ignore it and decided to move to Norway and start something new! Since then I became an authorized guide for the city of Bergen and have been doing few-hours-sightseeing excursions in the city as well as multiple-days-trips with both small private groups and up to 100-persons groups all over Norway. I take a tremendous pleasure in showing my new home town and the amazing sceneries we have in the region! I'm also keen on sharing stories with visitors on culture, history and what make Bergen a unique city. Apart working as a guide, I also work as a CrossFit L2 trainer in a gym which is my second passion. As hobby I enjoy taking photographs. Bergen is a colorful city with an autenthic Norwegian spirit and has a small-town charm and atmosphere. It is the perfect gateway to visit the two most important fjords of Norway that are accessible in a day trip from the city. Bergen is famous for the seven mountains surrounding the city centre, the Hanseatic Wharf, the fish market, the composers Edvard Grieg and Ole Bull and contemporary musicians like Kygo and the band A-HA! I can suggest tours or help you plan that exclusive, individual and personal itinerary which is exactly to your liking (or dedicated to your interests), informative, and above all, fun. I will guide you in Bergen or into our superb countryside and typical fjords. So welcome again to Bergen and let's make your time here fantastic!

Thierry, our tour guide was absolutely wonderful. He is very knowledgeable, patient, with a great sense of humor. He made it both informative and entertaining, while adding a personal touch to the dialogue. We highly recommend Thierry without question. Stuart Siegel
Glynne H.United States
Our guide was excellent and very patient with our differing needs (one of us had sustained a minor injury a couple of days before which restricted mobility a bit). Highly recommend.
Ann K.
Excellent tour and guide. With a 3 hour investment, we had an informative and fun tour of the city’s highlights. Thierry is engaging and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
Bonnie N.United States
I mistakingly scheduled the tour for a time that was before our cruise ship was to arrive into Bergen. At the moment I realized, Thierry happened to message me the day prior to confirm our information. I so appreciated hearing from him to confirm as it allowed us to discuss our options. Although not able to do complete tour due to my error and Thierry being booked up, he made arrangements to meet us at the end of his day and before we were do back on ship for an abbreviated tour, which we very much enjoyed. I highly recommend Thierry and the Bergen tour.
