Free time in Bergen

Bergen used to be the largest city in the Nordic countries and the capital of Norway throughout some of the country’s most influential periods.

When it comes to things to do in Bergen, it’s not all about urban attractions. Natural escapes are just minutes away. The port at the heart of Bergen is the gateway to the amazing fjords which make up the Norwegian coastline, and the city itself is ringed by 7 mountains, several of which are very easily reached and climbed.

Booking and cancellation

Booking conditions

1. Payment

You are required to pay a non-refundable deposit of 20% of the trip cost per person per trip for your booking to be confirmed, with the remaining balance of your trip due 30 days prior to your travel departure date. If your booking is made within 30 days of the departure date, then the full amount is payable at the time of booking.

2. Change of itinerary

For operational reasons, we may need to operate substitute vehicles or change the date or time of your tour. We will give you as much notice as possible of any such changes. If you cannot participate in a re-scheduled tour, then we will give you a full refund except that we cannot refund the amount of any credit card fees charged in connection with your booking.

3. Fees and surcharges

Our trip prices are subject to variable and seasonal pricing, both of which are standard practice within the travel industry. This means our trip prices may vary at any time in accordance with demand, market conditions and availability. It is likely that different passengers on the same trip have been charged different prices. Your best option if you like the price you see is to book at that time. Any reduced pricing or discounts that may become available after you have paid your deposit will not apply. If you wish to cancel your booking to take advantage of a cheaper price, full cancellation conditions apply. The most up to date pricing is available on our website.
Note that prices may vary depending on which currency the booking is made.

We reserve the right to impose surcharges up to 30 days before departure due to unfavourable changes in exchange rates, increases in airfares or other transportation costs, increases in local operator costs, taxes, or if government action should require us to do so. In such instances we will be responsible for the amount up to 2% of the trip price and you will be responsible for the balance. If any surcharge results in an increase of more than 10% of the trip price you may cancel the booking within 14 days of notification of the surcharge and obtain a full refund. Air Passenger Duty is included in the price of your air inclusive trip. Please note that a surcharge may be applied to all purchases made by credit card.

Public Holiday Surcharge: Tours operating over a public holiday may be subject to an additional surcharge payable at the time of booking.

Credit Card Surcharge: A credit card surcharge of 1.5% may be charged if you use a credit card to pay for your booking.

Cancellation conditions

1. Cancellation charges

59-42 days before trip start date – 30%, or loss of deposit if higher
41-28 days before trip start date – 60%
27-14 days before trip start date – 90%
Less than 14 days before trip start date – 100%

2. Amend your booking up to 10 days before departure

If it’s 10 days or more until your trip, you can transfer to another holiday. Or, if you’re not sure where or when you want to travel, you can request a credit voucher.

The value of the holiday we will transfer to another, or the value of the credit voucher we will issue to you, will be after deducting all non-refundable deposits and non-recoverable costs applicable at the time you change your booking.

Please see below for information about non-refundable and non-recoverable costs.

The only exception is any non-refundable deposits paid for the trip. The value of non-refundable deposits will have been advised at the time of confirming the booking and may include the cost of permits and flights.

The credit voucher must be redeemed against a new booking within 12 months of issue - you don’t need to travel in that 12 months, just have applied the credit to another trip.

Alternatively you can cancel altogether, and we’ll send you a cancellation invoice in accordance with the cancellation charges detailed below.

3. Non-refundable deposits and non-recoverable costs

When choosing to take a credit note or to transfer to another departure it is important to be aware that there are two kinds of cost which we may have incurred on your behalf. Those that form part of your deposit, which we refer to as ‘non-refundable deposits’ and costs that we incur closer to your departure date, known as ‘non-recoverable costs’. When you first make your booking, we may need to commit to certain services straight away to secure your trip. These might include paying for flights that need to be booked and paid for up-front, permits for activities (such as gorilla permits in Uganda or Inca Trail passes) or even costs to confirm specific accommodation at peak times. All of these costs will be outlined to you when you book, and will form part of your non-refundable deposit.

Closer to your departure, once you’ve paid your final balance, we’ll cover a number of other costs that we’re contracted to pay suppliers in anticipation of your arrival, the non-recoverable costs. Again, these can include flights and rail fares, accommodation and permits. Should you no longer wish or be able to travel, there’ll be a sliding scale of how much we have already committed to and paid for. So the amount charged will depend on how close to departure you change your holiday. As a general rule, the nearer to departure the more we will have committed to, and so the less you will receive as a credit voucher.

Getting ready for the trip

Clothing for Norway in summer

Bring lots of layered clothing: the Norwegian weather can change at a moments notice (wyou can experience 4 seasons in one day) so layered clothing is a must. We recommend thermal leggings, wet pants, cold weather layers, t-shirts and jackets and stripped off/ put layers on when appropriate!

Waterproof jacket: it rains a lot in Norway! Professional gear is worth the price tag and will keep you warm and dry no matter the conditions.

Waterproof hiking boots: They double up quite nicely as rain boots as well, so you won’t have to worry about walking around on very wet days – something Norway has a lot of.

Hat, scarf and buff: perfect to protect against the elements. Buffs are extremely versatile for hiking and can be used as a scarf, hat or to protect your face from the wind/cold/sun when the Norway weather varies!

Daypack

Norway is a wonderful country to explore on foot, so bring a daypack with you so you can head off on an adventure. Plus, eating out in Norway is kind of really expensive, so this way you can bring all the food and snacks you’ll need for the day.

Reusable water bottle (and thermos)

Bottled water in Norway is super expensive, and the tap water there is delicious, so be sure to bring a reusable bottle with you. And if you have extra space in your luggage we recommend bringing a thermos as well, especially if you’ll be going on any long hikes. It’s just so cosy to stop for coffee/tea/hot chocolate up in the mountains – and life in Norway is all about getting cosy.

Food and drinks

Drinking water

Tap water is universally drinkable in Norway, and tastes great. So no need to buy bottled water.

Most running water in the mountains and forests of Norway is clean enough to drink, but avoid water running through pastures or runoff from glaciers, as this may contain harmful microorganisms.

Alcohol

To buy wine or beer in Norway, the minimum age is 18 years. For spirits, it is 20 years.

Beer can be found in most shops, but is only sold before 8 pm on weekdays or 6 pm on Saturdays. For wine, spirits or strong beer, you must visit one of the Vinmonopolet outlets, found in most large cities and towns.

How to use drones in Norway

Drones and similar remote controlled flying devices must generally be kept at a minimum 150 metres distance from both people, vehicles and buildings that are not affiliated with the drone operator. Flying must happen in daylight only and within 120 metres above the ground or water surface. Never fly closer than 5 kilometres from airports unless you have explicit clearance to do so. The device must always remain within the sight of the operator who must neither be influenced by alcohol.

All such flight activity must always be performed with concern and respect for the surrounding people, birds, other animals, private properties, public spaces and tourist spots like viewing points. Please check with your destination for local, deviating regulations and military or other special restricted areas where all the aforementioned activities are forbidden by law.

Things You Can Buy Only in Norway

There’s nothing better than a keepsake to serve as a reminder of an amazing trip. Add these authentic Norwegian products and gifts to your souvenir list – they’re not easy to find anywhere else in the world.

Norwegian brown cheese - brunost

The weirdest thing about Norway’s most iconic cheese, brunost? It’s not cheese at all. Made from a gently boiled-down combination of milk, cream and whey, it’s a delightfully contrary sweet-savoury, creamy-tangy concoction, unlike anything else you’ll ever eat. As the milk and cream are cooked down, the natural sugars caramelise, creating a thick, golden-brown curd. Add the sharp tanginess of the whey (especially in the goat-milk variety), and it’s a taste-bud-tingling, bafflingly delicious addition to a cheese board or picnic.

Authentic Norwegian sweaters

“There’s no bad weather, only bad clothes” is a well-worn national saying. In Norway, that’s your cue to invest in a new wardrobe addition that keeps you warm and gives you an unmistakeable dash of Norwegian style. Case in point: Dale of Norway knitwear, notably sweaters, which have been crafted since 1879 and combine 100 percent pure wool with beautiful patterns based on nature and history. The village of Dale is tucked among fjords and falls in western coastal Norway, but the brand has concept stores in Oslo and Stavanger, too.

Norwegian traditional costumes

Norwegians love their bunads (woollen national costumes for men and – more commonly – women); brightly embroidered, they’re voluminous and often accessorised with buttons and buckles. You’ll see them worn publicly on official state holidays – notably Nasjonaldagen (National Day, 17 May) – as well as for birthdays, baptisms, family celebrations and photo sessions for Tinder profiles. Buy traditional outfits for men, women and children from Heimen Husfliden’s shops in Oslo, where everything is handmade using techniques in practice since 1912.
