Tipgebaseerde wandeltocht door Bergen

The walk around Bergen was very scenic and we really enjoyed that aspect of it. Our guide was entertaining but in general spoke too much and should have focused on the town and its history. What we did not like was his frequent comments about the deficiencies of the Norwegians - he said they are unfriendly and depressed and behave strangely. Having spent most of the previous fortnight with a significant number of Norwegians, all of whom seemed perfectly normal and friendly, we found his comments to be incorrect, unfriendly and insensitive. Norwegians appear to be good at making fun of themselves. What we did not find acceptable was someone who is not Norwegian and who had not lived in Norway for many years making such statements on a guided walk where such comments have no place. He also was factually incorrect when he said that the King of Norway went to stay in the USA during the war. When we told him that the King had gone to London he implied that had been for a short time and the main time was spent in the USA. In fact the King spent all of the war in London though some of the family went to the States.

Sami was an excellent tour guide both informative and funny. With just the right amount of time spent walking and seeing the sights.

Great way to get your bearings of Bergen, Sammi knew the area well and had heaps of stories to tell and some great tips. Had a few issues with the meet up and nearly joined the Spanish group. There was a bit of standing around at the beginning which slowed the process for someoneone wanting to get moving. Some of the street are very steep, care needs to be taken.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Sami. He's very entertaining and possessing a good sense of humour. You get lots of - also quirky - information. It was worth the "investment".

Sammy was one of our best tour guides. Excellent language skills and sense of humor. We learned a lot about Bergen.

Sami was well spoken and was thorough with local Knowledge and history. It was good mix of serious and fun.

Very interesting, but also very fun tour. Exciting to get to know Norway and the Norwegians from the perspective of an expat. Sami is a gifted storyteller who speaks quickly and does not let a second of boredom arise. There were many useful tips (shopping, specialties in Norway and Bergen in particular, local spots; I tried Dr. Wiesner right away and was very satisfied). However, the group was very large with over 30 people starting out.

It was great.We saw a lot and learned a lot on our walk through the streets of Bergen. Sammi is full of information and is very entertaining. Highly recommend.

Guide Sam made the group feel good, was relaxed. And at the same time full of information, which he could bring fantastically: he is also a stand-up comedian... nice humor, I really loved him.

We had Sammy as a guide. Fantastic entertaining insight into the local culture as well as the local attractions. Nearly 3 hour walk which flew by. Highly recommend.
