Welcome to Bergen! I am a Private Guide that offers Private Tours all over Bergen. Bergen is a city I welcome in my life, always! Come rain or come shine :) I was born and raised in Bergen. Bergen is known as a City of Culture as well as Gateway to the Fjords. I have International experience from working for SAS, Scandinavian Airlines, several years. I am also an Authorized Bergen Guide and Oslo Guide, and speak English fluently. Presently I love to walk around Bergen while taking you to the historic sites and telling about the city's fascinating history. A walking tour may also include a ride with the Funicular, Floibanen, up mount Floien for a great view of Bergen and it's surroundings. A short walk or hike on mount Floien is an option. Among my other favourites are visits to Troldhaugen, the home of composer Edvard Grieg, the art museums (Munch and other Norwegian painters), organic bakery (the best "Skillingsbolle" and sandwiches). At the Bergen Aquarium I love watching the feeding of the penguines and sea-lions - they even have tarantulas and anaconda there …. all behind glass; thankfully! Tours can be individually customized. Looking forward to be seeing you soon in Bergen! I can also guide you into the fjords surrounding Bergen. Authorized Bergen Guide since 2007 and Oslo Guide since 2017. Air Purser for SAS, Scandinavian Airlines. Registered Homeopath. In Norway you need a professional driver license to drive for services. My tours are either by public transportation, walking, or I need to hire a car with driver. It is also possible to use taxi. This must be paid on the spot. You may pay by credit cards.

This tour gives you an introduction to Bergen on our way to Troldhaugen, Home of the composer Edvard Grieg, 1843 - 1907. Arriving at Troldhaugen, the home of the composer Edvard Grieg, we'll visit his villa from 1885 where the furnitures and memoribilias are originals and kept in the same way as when Edvard Grieg lived here with his wife Nina. The lovely wooden villa is located in picturesque surroundings by the Nordaasvannet lake. A walk down to the burial place of Edvard and Nina Grieg, by the Nordaas lake, is optional. This tour may be extended to include a lunch time concert at Troldhaugen, at additional cost.
