Group travel

I am a very outdoorsy person, and we weren't there for very long, so that was my priority. I did so much hiking that while challenging provided some of the most breathtaking views I have ever seen in my life. I also did a Fjords cruise and couldn't recommend that more as it also provided gorgeous views and an amazing experience.

Bergen is a small town that is a very convenient city to start your travels into the norwegian mountains. There are a few interesting places to visit like the old wooden church that is easy ro reach by public transport.

Family travel

I went to Bergen with my twin sister. Things to know about Bergen: - It's a very safe city - To do: fish soups and fjords - There's no euro and it's a pretty expensive city It was a great expérience!

Solo travel

I felt really safe in Bergen, it's a small town but very touristic and that's why it's very expensive. I stayed in a youth hostel and I used the kitchen to cook my meals. There are a lot of interesting things to do around, just go to the tourist information and they will help you to choose a cruise, a hike or other many activites. My budget was about 70 euros each day.

Spent months waiting for a spontaneous trip to Bergen, because I wanted to choose a sunny week. The travel was more expensive this way but definitely worth it! You don't need more than 2-3 days to visit every sight, but you can spend a couple more days sailing to the fjords etc. Highly recommend!

I find Bergen to be very safe. As a 20-year-old woman, I’ve often walked home alone at night in the city center and felt comfortable. Bergen is full of students, and the student life makes the city lively, especially on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. Norwegians can be a bit reserved, but I’ve never experienced theft or anything similar here. Of course, it’s always smart to keep an eye on your belongings, but overall I feel very safe and comfortable living in Bergen.
