Tommy is an outstanding guide through beautiful Bergen. As we walked the old town, he shared the highlights of the history and geography of the town. He was also very open to sharing about life in Norway. Also gave us excellent tips about other stops on our trip.

We were wondering when we found out our guides name was Teresita Maria Ortigoza Nunez, but she has been here 20 years and she was GREAT! We went up the mountain for beautiful views, visited St. Mary’s church, and the historic Bryggen district. Teresita shared a wealth of information about the city and life in Norway. Private tours are worth it because you get ALL your questions answered and see the sights that work best. She gave us a great recommendation for dinner and told me to txt with any questions while we are here.

In 15 days and over 10 guided tours throughout Norway, Teracita was the most impressive, knowledgeable, and personable guide of all the guides on our tours. She was wonderful. She avoided repeating all the statistics of Norway as was standard in nearly every sightseeing tour, instead highlighting family and social life in the country. After each colorful description she would say “This is Norway!” She was so much fun and the type of guide we hoped for.

Great day with our guide. Walking Nordnes area of Bergen. Knowledgeable and took us to parks and streets off the beaten trail.

Our guide was ok and she took us to some interesting places. However, there were some things that she didn’t take us to which we were expecting (eg Bergenhus Fortress) and some info was incorrect (such as opening times). She did provide lots of info about like in Norway which was interesting.

This was an extremely disappointing experience.
We asked for an English speaking guide and were promised a local that will share the experience of living in Bergen.
We got 2 people that showed up. Both could not speak English beyond few words!
In addition, they had no idea where to take us and asked what we want. I don't think they were local. They suggested to travel in a their car, though this is a walking tour. They looked a bit shady and we had to give up on the tour before it started.

Every once in a while you experience a tour that is beyond superlatives. My sister and I had the most amazing guide in Tommy Skjonhaug. We not only experienced the varieties of architecture and astounding views but we’re provided in-depth insights into the daily lives of the citizens of Bergen. Also provided recommendations for restaurants. Kudos, Tommy
