Top Bergen Archaeology Tours

Perfect for rainy days in Bergen, this mostly indoor tour takes you inside Haakons Hall and Bryggens Museum with a Norwegian local guide and no more than 8 guests. Enjoy a stop at Dr. Wiesener along the way. Museum admission is included, with short walks between stops. Meet inside the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel. Begin with a short photo stop and introduction at UNESCO-listed Bryggen. Continue through Bergenhus Fortress to Haakon's Hall, the medieval royal hall at the former centre of Norway's royal court. Pass St. Mary's Church before entering Bryggens Museum, built above the remains of Bergen's earliest buildings. See medieval rune sticks with messages about trade, faith, love, gossip, poetry and magic. Finish at Dr. Wiesener, a neighbourhood pub inside a former public bathhouse from 1889. A selected local beer for guests aged 18 or over, or a soda, coffee or tea, is included. The tour ends there, and guests who wish may walk back to the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel with the guide.
