Worth taking a guided hike, so glad we did. - Such a great experience. We met Oystein in Bergen and then took the train to the top. We went off the paths and into areas we would never have seen. He was so informative of the area, having lived in Bergen all his life, enjoyed listening to his adventures and seeing the amazing views. Also stopped for some yummy treats. So glad we decided to do a guided hike. Thank you

Great hike-knowledgable guide - Great hike off the beaten path. Our guide told wonderful stories as a local who grew up in the area We did not understand that the Funicular ticket is a required purchase to go up the mountain ( thought it was optional for return trip). Still, well worth it in our opinion

Norway comes to life! - Normann!!! He made Norway and Norwegians come to life. He brings his heart and soul to the Floyen Mountain walk experience. After 2 weeks in Scotland and Norway, Normann was our favorite guide!

Personalized tour - Really a great way to see the top of Bergen. The hike is tailored to the hikers. I ended up being the only hiker and they still continued the tour. The guide was excellent and very informative. This was a nice way to get off the beaten paths. Highly recommend if you like hiking!

The highlight of my trip - The "On top of Bergen" hike was without doubt the highlight of my recent trip. Our guide Øystein was friendly and knowledgeable, taking us off the marked tracks and up to stunning viewpoints. I was blessed with good weather, but I am sure I would have enjoyed the trip regardless. Hikes are tailored to ability level and weather conditions, you will always be safe and able to enjoy the trip. I highly recommend Norway Mountain Guides and hope to hike with them again in future!

If you enjoy hiking and beautiful views, this is a must-do! - The "Hiking on Top of Bergen" public tour was one of our favorite parts of our trip to Bergen! After meeting up with our guide Normann, who was incredible, we started the day by taking a trip up to Mt Fløyen by cable car to officially start the hike. The various peaks we stopped at were amazing, but once we hiked to the top of the mountain we were greeted with a breathtaking view of the entire city and surrounding mountains. Along the way, Normann told us about the history of the locations we stopped at and shared personal stories about his hiking experiences as a guide; he definitely made the hike better than we could imagine! Overall, I would consider this an easy-medium hike but we also lucked out with great weather. If you're interested in having a great day outdoors, please consider signing up!

Rip Off - Our guide was amazing but this tour is over priced. I would not recommend it unless they review the price. The funicular ticket is not even included and the tour is less than 4 hours. Anyone could do this hike without paying anything, public path. We done the Trolltunga Tour that is a 12 hours challenging hike and it cost us £40 less than this tour. I would give our guide 10 star but this tour deserves less than 1 star. Such a rip off.
