YouTube Video Description

This port report is from Bergen Norway, where we sailed with Holland America Cruise Line. What a cool city to wander! With history associated with the Hanseatic League, parts of Bergen, such as the old market buildings of Bryggen, are a UNESCO heritage site. From the two cruise berth areas, Skolten and Jekteviken, we explore Mount Floyen, The Fish Market, and wander the beautiful maze-like streets before having a hot dog lunch as Trekroneren. Here’s the basic lowdown!

We found that many videos lack the details we needed, such as parking, restrooms, available services, and even sidewalk quality. We act as your “port scout”, providing first-hand reports on essential information that others overlook; our videos cover port terminals, independent excursions, goods, services, transportation and even ship tours. With time ticking away during your port visit, we understand the importance of sound planning to make every moment count. Let us give you the Lowdown!
