Welcome to Bergen - Norway
Bergen is a city on the west coast of Norway. Bergen is an international city packed with history and tradition, a big city with small-town charm and atmosphere. http://www.visitbergen.com/en/Articles/Welcome-to-Bergen/
Getting there
You can travel there by car, bus, train or plane. Should you be coming from abroad the
most comfortable and easiest means of travel will most likely be to go by plane.
The airport is called "Bergen Airport Flesland" and is located approximately 20 kilometres from the city centre. There is an express bus service to the city centre that leaves from just outside the exit from the airport every ten minutes.
The train station in Bergen is in the city centre. There is a direct route from Oslo to Bergen which is famous for the nice scenery across the Hardangervidda plateau at over 1.000 metres above sea level. See www.nsb.no for time tables and prices.
Getting home
We will finish shortly after 1700 on Sunday so that people have time to get home. The venue is a 30 minute cab ride from the airport. Here are some direct flights that might be helpful, and we will make sure we finish in time for:
Stockholm: SAS 19:35
Copenhagen: Norwegian: 20:05, SAS 20:55
London: BA 20:30
Trondheim: SAS 19:40 and 22:30
Oslo: Plenty of evening options.
