Flights to Bergen - Frequently Asked Questions
+ What is the best time to visit Bergen ?
The best time to visit Bergen (BGO) is from late spring through late summer, especially May to August, when daytime temperatures are around 59–66°F and daylight hours are very long.

Travelers who prefer fewer crowds and lower accommodation prices can look at April–May and September–October, when it is cooler but still comfortable for city walks and viewpoints.
