BERGEN CARD
The
Bergen Card (
www.visitbergen.com/bergencard
;
adult per 24/48hr Nkr190/

is a worthwhile investment, although it takes careful plan-

free travel on local buses; free entrance to some museums, with discounted entry to
the rest; free or discounted return trips on the Fløibanen funicular, depending on the
time of year; free guided tours of Bergen; and discounts on city and boat sightseeing
tours, concerts and cultural performances. The Bergen Card is available from the
tourist office, some hotels, the bus terminal and online.
