Bergen: Cobbled Streets & Majestic Fjords

Day 1  Arrive in Bergen    
Arrive into Bergen, surrounded by mountains and transfer to your hotel. Take a wander through the cobbled streets and past the painted houses of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Bryggen Wharf; the original buildings were destroyed by fire but have been carefully reconstructed and filled with charming shops and restaurants.

Day 2  Mount Floyen    
This morning take the Floibanen Funicular from the city centre to the top of Mount Floyen. You’ll get some spectacular views of the city, mountains and sea from the top before exploring one of the numerous scenic walking trails. Amble through the dense forest, around pristine lakes and across rugged countryside. This afternoon visit one of the city’s excellent museums to learn about local life throughout the ages.

Day 3  Fjord Sightseeing    
Today perhaps join a tour heading into Norway’s most impressive scenery, the Norwegian Fjords. Cruise out of the city passing a myriad of islands and along Sognefjord. Admire the towering cliff faces and thundering waterfalls, pristine Nordic forests with tiny painted houses which dot the shoreline. On your return treat yourself to a Norwegian cinnamon roll, the city’s local specialty.

Day 4  Depart Bergen    
Enjoy a final morning beside the wharf, maybe paying a visit to the fish market for a delicious local delicacy before transferring back to the airport in time for your onward flight.
