My first virtual tour with online shopping
After months of self-isolating and cancelling my flight to Norway, I was lucky enough to find this virtual tour. Although it is not possible to fly physically to Norway, it is great that you can book a tour with a real guide. My tour provider and I very simply agreed on which app to use to broadcast the tour. So sitting right at home at the appointed hour, I enjoyed a video tour of Bergen - seeing important historical sites, listening to live stories and even asking the guide a few questions. And at the end I virtually walked around the gift shop and bought myself a silver jewel with yellow amber - I will have a fashionable memory of the Vikings :) The purchase was mailed to me, received today and is very pleased!
Response from the operator: Спасибо за ваш отзыв. Время пандемии оказалось испытанием как для туристических компаний, так и для туристов. Мы рады, что наши виртуальные туры оказались востребованными. И даже сейчас, когда многие страны захлестнула вторая волна коронавируса такие виртуальные онлайн туры безопасны как для туристов, так и для гидов. В ближайшее время мы предложим вам новые виртуальные онлайн туры по Норвегии.

Real tour experience on a distance of 1000 miles from the spot!
I have visited Norway just before the start of pandemic Covid-19 spreading. Unfortunaly, I didn' t have during my stay in Norway any walking tours in one of the most popular Norwegian historical cities - Bergen. Suddenly I discovered that one of Bergen tourist agencies suggests virtual online walking tours. It was so nice. International tourism is almost died now. Live online tour was a discovery for me. I was sitting with my smartphone at home enjoying stories of my local guide Ole, who was doing the real tour for me in the center of old Bergen passing with his camera medieval quarters. Tour was shorter than standard real tours. For me 1 hour was enough both for getting historical information and for the shopping at the end of the tour. My trophy became 3 magnets, a cup and 10 cans of blue berry in capsules that help to encrease immune system. Ole sent me them with DHL. My recommendations!
Response from the operator: Dear customer, We are very grateful to You for your detailed review. Our company offers now tours for the people which are not able to come to Norway because of Covid-19 pandemic risks. Distant virtual on-line tours are the safe bridges between the countries today. We are happy that You are ordered one of these tours from us and satisfied with our services.

How much does Local food tasting & Excursion in medieval Bergen cost?
+

How long does Local food tasting & Excursion in medieval Bergen take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bergen is not rushed.
Is Local food tasting & Excursion in medieval Bergen worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Bergen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Local food tasting & Excursion in medieval Bergen?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bergen can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bergen and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bergen?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bergen?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
