"We had a very sociable and informative stroll round Bergen with Shafaq - bits of history, interesting suggestions for museums, directions regarding shopping, photo hotspots, food recommendations (and I’d say wait until you’ve spoken to Shafaq before you book dinner as I think she may have the best knowledge for every type of food!!). We certainly discovered places we wouldn’t necessarily have been to ourselves and followed up some of her ideas for the rest of our time in Bergen. Very personable and easy company - highly recommended. Thanks Shafaq 🤩"
"It was our first time to Bergen (and Norway for that matter). Shafaq met us for a 3 hour private tour or Bergen city highlights, which was a perfect way for us to get acquainted with the city that we would be spending the next several days. She was great at telling us the history of various locations we visited, and she was a great personal photographer! But I would say the best part what that she gave us lots of great suggestions as to what to do the next several days on our own, including where to buy tickets, restaurants to try, etc. As we spent our remaining days we kept saying to each other \"Shafaq said to go here... Shafaq said to eat here...\". The advantage of hiring a private guide!!"
"Knowledgeable and friendly! She shared the history of Bergen and took us to local places that we would’ve never seen on our own. I highly recommend Fabiola ❤️"

10 Tastings with Michal
"We had an amazing late afternoon with Michal taking us around Bergen tasting food at 10 of his favorite spots! Starting and finishing off with some special Norwegian treats that Michael brought along added a special touch to our experience. It was as if we were touring the town with an old friend. The cuisine options were carefully picked and the food selections were delicious! Make sure not to eat before you go; it was like a 10 course omakase experience!!!

"Shafaq was so charming, so easy to get in touch with & very informative. Our group loved her take on different subjects. We enjoyed our walk thru town, tasted whale & reindeer & many other local delicacies. We were given a bag of goodies for us to take back to our ship. Very enjoyable! "
Connie RushlowAbout local Shafaq Bergen, September 27, 2025
"It turned out that Shafaq was from the same city/neighborhood as me! Despite being a recent immigrant to Norway/Bergen, Shafaq was extremely knowledgeable of the history and culture of Bergen and Norway. The fact that she knew all the photo-worth spots was an added bonus (especially for my wife :-))
We had a great time walking around Bergen with Shafaq and would highly recommend her as a guide."
"Shafaq was prompt, friendly, and provided a lovely commentary of Bergen. She engaged well with all eight of us. Our photo ops were absolutely perfect. She provided history of Bergen and Norway; a wonderful local food tasting spot; and a lovely walk around the historical places around Bergen. If you would like an enjoyable history of Bergen walk, she’s the one to book. Thank you for such a wonderful experience, Shafaq! "
"We like to get the lay of the land right when we get to a new place and Shafaq delivered! She even got me to try a reindeer hotdog. It was wonderful. I highly recommend Shafaq to tour you around Bergen."
"Eclectic Food & Drink of Bergen Norway!
Spending time with Shafaq and exploring unique food stops in the Bergen, Norway central area was a fantastic treat! The consummate host, Shafaq took us to 3 Kroneren for an absolutely delicious Reindeer Hot Dog!
Then we went to Fisketorget to explore this stunning fish store filled with a wonderful assortment of fish. We had a wonderful sampling of some of the best prepared mussels that I have ever had, along with a sampling of Minke whale—delicious! And, this was complemented by the best glass of Aquavit!
Then we strolled over to sostrene Hagelin where we tasted some wonderful fish cakes, fish chowder, and salmon roll-ups. And, again, absolutely delicious!
And, then our final stop was at Deli Luca and had some wonderful sweets with coffee!
Our experience was most memorable and we will cherish our time with Shafaq. She introduced us to wonderful Norwegian food while we also learned about Norwegian Culture.
Thank you Shafaq!
