Hop ashore with us in beautiful Bergen, Norway, as we step off Holland America Line's gorgeous ship, the Rotterdam, for an incredible, self-guided day in port! 🇳🇴⚓ If you are visiting Bergen on a cruise, you'll love how incredibly accessible and walkable this historic city is. In this vlog, we show you exactly how to maximize your day without paying for expensive cruise excursions. We start by walking right from the Rotterdam’s cruise dock (an easy 10-15 minute flat walk to the center) and jumping onto the Bergen Hop-On, Hop-Off bus to get our bearings and see the full 55-minute city loop. We hop off at the top of the hill in the stunning, historic neighborhood of Sandviken to admire the fairytale white wooden houses before enjoying a scenic downhill walk back to town. From there, we explore the vibrant sights and smells of the historic Bergen Fish Market (Fisketorget) and get lost in the narrow wooden alleys of Bryggen, Bergen’s iconic UNESCO World Heritage site. Finally, we take a stroll to the beautiful Bergen Train Station and wind our way through the bustling commercial shopping district before heading back to the ship. Whether you're sailing with Holland America or planning a trip to Norway, this video will give you the ultimate inspiration for your day in Bergen!
