Start the day with a guided tour of the old Bryggen wharf on foot. It takes you on an historical stroll through the medieval wooden buildings of Bryggen, which have become a symbol of our cultural heritage and are included on UNESCO's World Heritage List. Includes admission to Bryggen's Museum, Schøtstuene and the Hanseatic Museum.
For lunch try a Bergen speciality, "Skillingsbolle", at one of the local bakeries.
During the year there are many concerts at Troldhaugen, home of composer Edvard Grieg. It is worthwhile visiting this lively museum and attending one of the many concerts played here is a real highlight of any visit.
