Bergen Tours in September 2025

Day after day we travelled through areas of outstanding natural beauty. We drove past mountains, lakes, waterfalls, fjords and glaciers, stopping for interesting activities or to enjoy the local cuisine along the way. Our very knowledgeable guide Shabby was able to give us plenty of information about the places we visited.

Excellent experience with a very Knowledgeable Tour Guide named Shabby who really brought Norway alive for us. Beautiful country shared with a great group of people and an exceptional tour guide, made this tour memorable.

Great tour. Tour guide, “Shabby” Flanders was outstanding and set the bar for a group tour guide. Her knowledge and communication skills superb. She had obviously done her homework. She knew local history, real Blue-Roads, which cafes, vistas, etc. She made the trip fun for all 17 of us. She is a unique soul of whom your company can be proud.

Excellent leadership and driving. Shabby was very knowledgeable and humorous in her accounts of the events of the day and history of the areas we traveling through. Si was a very good driver on the potentially dangerous roads.

As a first time hiker I was worried about what to expect from this trip but I shouldn't have been. Spent a truly amazing week hiking varied and incredibly beautiful landscapes, interspersed with some breathtaking ferry trips. The pace was manageable (although I did start with a good base fitness) and there were often options to shorten or lengthen walks depending on capability but this was always optional. Nes Gard itself is a truly special place and perfect for an escape from real life. Waking up to the view of fjord everyday was such a contrast to living in the UK. The staff at Nes Gard are lovely and evenings were spent eating fab local food and then drinking and catching up in the bar with new found friends. This is the perfect holiday if you want a break from reality, a chance to unwind and to see some truly beautiful scenery as well as the chance to make some amazing friends.

Nes Gard Farm, what “a little gem” of a place to stay for the week. The team, food and wine pairing option was truly amazing at this special place which was also surrounded by incredible scenery. The evening hike briefings for the following day took place either in the charming wine cellar or wonderfully converted old cattle shed with a drink or two to start the evening off before our delicious three course meal was served up each evening including locally sourced ingredients where possible and the option for wine pairing with each course. Being September we were particularly lucky with the sunny warm blue skied weather with no rainfall all week. Each day we set off on a very different hike led by our fantastic guide Anders. No one day was the same and the scenery truly breathtaking. We got an wonderful appreciation for all Norway has to offer in terms of views and what an incredible first visit to this beautiful country we had and we we would love to come back to the country in the future.
