Bergen is the usual start or end point for a Norwegian Fjords cruise, ringed by seven mountains and known for the tilted wooden buildings of the UNESCO-listed Bryggen wharf. It is also one of the rainiest cities in Europe, so pack for it. From the harbor you can ride the funicular up Mount Floyen or connect to the Norway in a Nutshell fjord-and-rail tour.
Bergen in April brings cooler conditions, with highs around 51°F, so pack layers alongside your warm-weather gear. April sees roughly 15 rainy days, so waterproof layers and flexible plans are wise. Showers are often short-lived but can be intense. Milder, rain still frequent
Crowds are moderate in April, making it a good balance between availability and weather. Dress in layers: a waterproof shell over a mid-layer handles the range between cool mornings and afternoon port temps.
