Overview

Take a trip to Bergen on your Norway Vacation

Bergen is a coastal city cradled by seven towering mountains that will immerse you in a unique balance of urban vibrancy and small-town Nordic charm. Step back to the Middle Ages and wander through Bergen's historic districts, nestled between the dramatic Hardangerfjord and Sognefjord. Indulge in Bergen's vibrant culinary scene, boasting an array of international cuisine options, and discover why the city holds a UNESCO City of Gastronomy title. A delicious tour of the historic Fish Market, Fisketorget, will showcase the diverse fresh fish available to you and Bergen locals. 

Discover the city's renowned street art, ignited by the visit of famed graffiti artist Banksy in 2000, which inspired the Bergen city council to foster a flourishing street art culture and propel Bergen to become a trendsetter for street art in Norway and Scandinavia. 

Meander to the past in Bryggen, an iconic neighbourhood featuring distinctive wooden houses and charming alleyways, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. The Bryggens Museum delves into the architectural history of Bryggen and holds the world's largest collection of medieval runic inscriptions. 

Ride the Floibanen funicular from the city centre to the summit of Mount Floyen for breathtaking views extending to the heavens before embarking on a cultural journey through Bergen's history. The Bergen Art Museum is one of the largest in Scandinavia, showcasing art from the Renaissance to the contemporary era, including works by the famous Edvard Munch.

If you can, plan your vacation around so you can participate in Constitution Day on May 17th. It’s Norway’s national day, but unlike most countries, it’s not military or political. It’s a huge, joyful celebration of children, culture, and national pride.

With regard to packing for your trip - Layer up. Carry an umbrella and raincoat because sometimes it gets super cold super fast. And bring along a bathing suit so you can enjoy one of the many saunas there!
