Hotel Value for Frequent Guests
Tag Archives for Bergen (BGO).
My first visit to Bergen was September 9, 2014 one year ago today. I came to the city on Norway’s west coast in the heart of fjord land last year to hang out and hike for a week. Statistically, September is the wettest month in Bergen. Last year I barely saw a cloud for the…
Ticket prices from San Francisco to several Scandinavian airports in Demark, Norway and Sweden are priced in the $600s for departures in September and October with American Airlines and British Airways.
