Food and culture walk of Bergen
In the afternoon, use all your senses to take in the city of Bergen. This tour takes you through Bergen's history and lets you try local food and learn about it. Learn about the history and traditions of food in Bergen from a local guide who speaks English. On our food tour, we focus on local goods and things that people have made themselves. The guide will take you around the old part of the city, and there you will make five stops to try different foods. We will go to Bryggen, which is on the list of world heritage sites maintained by UNESCO. A small restaurant run by locals in what used to be a public bath offers another taste. The food should be enough for lunch, and the last stop will be at the oldest cellar in Norway, where a special story will be told over a glass of beer.

Later, you can go on your own to one of Norway's most popular and well-known sights— the Fløibanen funicular in Bergen. It takes about 5–8 minutes to get to the top, which is 320 m above sea level. Mount Floyen has many hiking trails and is a great place to start a nice walk in the mountains around the city.
