A Perfect First Visit to Norway

Norway | Mar 10 - Mar 14, 2024

Our guide was very knowledgeable and pointed out several areas and facts of interest throughout out hike. A memorable moment was stopping at the fjord lookout and taking in the quiet and grand beauty. Our guide even brought a warm beverage and chocolate treat for us all to enjoy before we set on the return hike.

It says a lot that in a driving rain Dane was able to keep our group engaged AND rather dry for two hours. The content covered in the Walk Through Past and Present gave a solid foundation of historical Bergen culture and how it has evolved to present day. Our guide frequently called out Bergen facts that also related to the home country of each participant. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bergen and/or Norway for the first time.

The staff greeted out boat upon arrival and escorted each guest inside. During dinner the owner stopped by each table to greet and welcome, in addition to giving the entire restaurant a brief back story to the origin of Cornelius and the island itself. The food was a culinary treat - five courses each with unique combinations of flavors and presentation. Very extensive wine selection. A luxury to have unrushed fine dining in a unique setting only accessible via boat. (or helicopter) The staff then came out on the dock to wave goodbye - even in the pouring rain! A warm and memorable experience. Have already recommended this place to others and would definitely return.
