I am a certified tour guide since 2017. I have started working with cruise guests in the area of Voss, Eidfjord, Flåm and Bergen. Now I am Bergen based and have been working also for smaller companies that provide walking tours and custom tours for people arriving from all over the world. I have had assignments also in the area of Oslo and Nordfjordeid.
Recently I have used mostly English and German, but I have had many tours also in Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, even Hungarian.
I love talking about a huge variety of topics to make sure the guests get a good understanding of life in Norway and the past and present of the country. Since I am originally a language teacher I make sure to speak clearly and in a way that is easy to understand for everybody. Guests often let me know how much they appreciate this and also the funny stories that I love to share with them.
In case you need a guide for a Bergen walk or a bus tour of the city or Norway in general you can send a request to my email:

Feedback from my guests:
“Our group of 4 really enjoyed our walking tour with Sylvia yesterday. She was very knowledgeable, engaging and humorous. Highly recommend booking a walking tour in the first few days of arriving in Bergen, or any city really as it provides you with bearings and a different perspective once you know the history. Many thanks”
