After the boat trip, stop for lunch at Søstrene Hagelin, known for traditional Norwegian fish dishes. Wander through the charming narrow streets near St. Mary’s Church before taking the Fløibanen funicular up Mount Fløyen. From there, continue in a private vehicle to Fantoft Stave Church and learn about Norway’s viking era. Visit the grounds of Gamlehaugen, Bergen’s royal residence, before finishing with a gondola ride up Mount Ulriken. The day combines short, guided walks with plenty of time to sit back and enjoy the journey by boat, funicular, private vehicle and gondola.
