Hi! My name it's Héctor I moved to Bergen from Spain 10 years ago. My original plan was to stay for 5 years in Bergen and go back to Spain, but unfortunately for me the city of Bergen has so much to offer that it's making it very hard to go back home. I'm passionate about the history and culture of Bergen and therefore I got into the world of guiding 5 years ago. It started as a side work/hobby, but now I'm committed to a full time guiding summer session showing those who come to visit Bergen, this awesome city from a special perspective that is my own experience. From fjords to mountains, walking among 1000+ years of history, walking between streets with more than 3 centuries old, wandering between the resilient neighborhoods that survived the numerous fires that devastated the city that once was the most prolific city of wooden houses in Europe during its years of development, and of course understanding how the Hanseatic League formed the most lucrative office of dried fish trade of the Middle Ages. With this said, it will be an honor for me to guide you on your visit to Bergen and show you the wonders of a city that makes you fall in love even if the rain does not stop. I will show you the past and present of Bergen and Norway in general through its own history and my own experiences . I will also make tour recommendations or assist you in creating that special, unique schedule that is tailored to your preferences in accordance to your interest in a way that we can visit and enjoy the city while we have fun , I truilly believe that tour guidng is all about sharing knowledge, experiences and stories and having lots of fun along the way! After 10 years in Norway and 4 years guiding as a hobby I decided to give a more professional touch to guiding. I recently have taken a course to sharp my guiding skills improving the way of guiding and comunications relating with guiding. bby None

For the more adventurous and those who are not afraid of feeling the stiffness the next day, in this tour we will take a ride in the funicular up to Mount Fløyen and we'll walk through its most hidden corners! Along this half-day experience, we will discover the magic of enjoying the city from the top, feeling like an authentic Bergenser and understanding why the local people of this city have such a strong bond with the sea, the mountains and nature. You will end the day knowing how to relax taking a walk from the sea to the 400 meters above sea level where Fløyen is located. This is how we forget about rainy days and get rid of any stress.
Let's have some fun! - Pick up at your accommodation/port - We will meet at the funicular station we'll take the funicular up to mount Floyen where we will enjoy the view of the city from the highs. - After that we will begin to immerse ourselves in the dense forests of tall pines of the Bergen mountains walking along ancient transport and commercial routes from Viking times. - We will walk near the lake where we will find cabins in unexpected places and parks built in an artisan way because carpentry in Norway is an art that we will corroborate for ourselves. - Drop off at your accommodation/port * The difficulty of this tour can be modified according to the visitor physical level.
