"Heia" and welcome to Norway! My name is Romain and I am an authorized guide and driver offering guided tours in and around the beautiful city of Bergen. I am bringing together two of my greatest passions - my admiration and love for this beautiful country in which I've lived for 17 years, the lively and inspiring city of Bergen in particular, and my desire to share and allow others to have the best experience possible to make lasting memories. Tours are covering all major sites, like the Mount Fløyen with its funicular and awe-inspiring views over the city and Fjord, the Fantoft Stave Church or Troldhaugen, the home of famous composer Edvard Grieg, as well as hidden gems and treasures that add the little something special and let you discover Bergen in its most authentic way. I like to add colour and a personal touch to my tours and let you benefit from total flexibility concerning itineraries and timing. This tour is about you and your experience; I operate on no other schedule than yours and your comfort. You feel like getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city? Let's escape the crowds and explore the 7 mountains surrounding Bergen or cruise one of the many Fjords nearby. More in the mood to immerse yourself in culture ? We can get to know the famous composers Edvard Grieg and Ole Bull a little better by visiting their homes or explore Bergens lively contemporary arts scene. Contact me today to have a chat about what your perfect day in Bergen could look like! Authorized Bergen Guide since 2013

Romain was excellent! His communication was great. He picked up six adults and our luggage from the airport and stowed the suitcases for the day in his trailer. He was on time and offered us water. He gave us a six hour tour, which included a lunch stop in an excellent restaurant that he recommended. We toured a stave church, Bergen, and took the funicular up the mountain. He is polite, funny, and very knowledgeable. He delivered us to the dock for the 4:00 ferry to Balestrand. A great way to spend the day before heading to the fjords. I highly recommend Romain!!!

Romain went far out of his way to accommodate us after we made a mistake in scheduling. He worked overtime and even at night to give us a very good experience in Bergen we won't forget. He is a remarkable man.

This tour is a wonderful introduction to the beautiful city of Bergen. It is nice to be met at the airport, for your tour starts on the way in to the center of the city. Romain is very knowledgeable about the history of Bergen and Norway. He also shares information about Bergen and Norway today. And, there add some hidden gems along the way. He was also helpful with logistics for the rest of my stay. I'd highly recommend Romain as a guide here in Bergen. Thanks again, Romain, for a great tour!

Romain met us as exited the airport, had water for us and talked about Bergen on the drive to our hotel. Very friendly and set the stage for the next two days of tours

Your Bergen tour itinerary

Arriving in the city centre we will visit "Bryggen" - the historic hanseatic quarters located in the heart of Bergen still a very popular and lively area. Strolling through the charming narrow alleyways I will tell you about the history behind these wooden houses and why they played such an important role in the history of Bergen and even Norway as a whole. Afterwards we will return to the car to take a panoramic drive around the city, discovering the peninsula of "Nordnes" and other central areas giving you even more of an insight into the fascinating stories that make Bergen the city it is today. Please contact me if you wish to personalize this transfer in order to visit interesting sites slightly out of the centre of Bergen, such as the Fantoft Stave Church or « Troldhaugen », the home of famous composer Edvard Grieg - most well known today for having composed the music to Ibsens play « Peer Gynt »
