Until 1830, commerce and shipping were key in Bergen, and one of the four major Hanseatic trading offices was located here.
Your tour starts with a drive along the German pier with its wooden buildings with pointed gables, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. See how the people of Bergen live today with a brief city tour, including Nordnes Peninsula, which bisects the harbor.
Take a funicular ride up Mount Fløien to 1,200 feet above sea level. From the top, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Bergen and the surroundings.
As you return to the lower funicular station, continue on foot to the famous Fish & Flower Market and through the ancient buildings and alleyways of the Bryggen Wharf -- a scene straight out of the Middle Ages. There is approximately one hour of walking required on this tour. Guests have the option of remaining in town at the end of the tour and making their own way back to the ship.
