Local food tour with funicular

Darro_W, Jun 2025
My wife and I took the local food and funicular tour in Bergen with tour guide Olaf. Our experience was excellent. As I have mobility and balance issues, Olaf was very helpful holding my arm throughout the tour. One tip - in preparation for the lunch at the fish market, I recommend you eat a very light breakfast or skip breakfast all together. The lunch was excellent and very large

Oleg was a wonderful guide with great knowledge of Bergen. We learned a lot. The food sample was awesome and way more than we thought it would be. We couldn’t finish everything. We also enjoyed the amazing views from mountain top.
