Bergen

Go on holiday with children and visit the second largest city in Norway, which is perhaps also the most beautiful. Arrange a cheap mini break to Bergen with Risskov and bring the whole family. Bergen is surrounded by seven mountains. The city also acts as a gateway to the Norwegian fjords that flow into the country. Many historians claim that Bergen was the capital of Norway before Oslo, and many 'Bergenians' would have liked the Storting to be located in Bergen. It is a strong and independent city, a former European cultural city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and certainly one not to be missed if holidays permit.

Try a trip to the top of Fløyen with the mountain railway, or Fløibanen, and experience the fantastic view of the mountains, the fjord and not least Bergen. Or head to Bryggen, one of the most visited tourist attractions in Norway. Experience the large market on the square, or relax in one of the many cafés and enjoy the bustling life that unfolds in the streets and alleys. Bergen also has a wide range of festivals and concerts at the city's venues, all year round.

You may want to include a fjord cruise in your holiday planning, departing from Bergen and sailing on to Mostraumen. The trip takes three hours and is a great way for everyone on board to experience the stunning scenery of the West Country. Find a last minute hotel at Risskov and organize an amazing driving holiday to Bergen, Norway. It is also possible to find cheap weekend breaks in Bergen at Risskov, an excellent chance for an intensive encounter with beautiful Bergen.
