The city leans into the fjord, steep streets rising like steps from the water. You slide into leather seats while a local driver eases the car onto narrow lanes framed by painted wooden houses and Bergen’s salty air. From the harbor you can feel the pull of the surrounding mountains; the driver gauges weather, traffic and the best timing for a stop at Bryggen or a high ridge viewpoint.
