Neil was an amazing tour guide in Oslo! - We had Neil as our guide in Oslo. He was amazing. He walked us all over the town and gave us lots of historical and architectural and cultural information. We enjoyed his stories about different buildings, and about different kings, and even showed us a good place to get a meal and a place to get some cash. Great experience, we did it on our first day and it was totally worth it. Highly recommend Neil.

A lovely introduction to Oslo and Norway. - Fantastic introduction to Oslo and Norwegian history by the very knowledgeable and professional Emilie. Plus, she showed us an excellent coffee shop, and we had a lot of laughs. Seriously, she tailored the content to our interests and kept the pace just right.

Awesome tour and guide - Absolutely amazing tour. Judit was very knowledgeable about Oslo’s and was able to weave it into descriptions of buildings and other landmarks. She was very friendly and made sure that she was covering topics that we were interested in. We would highly recommend booking her for a tour if you’re ever in Oslo!

Great overview of Oslo and its culture - During a cruise stop in Oslo, I arranged a tour and met our guide, Sigrid, at the cruise terminal for a fantastic day. We visited a variety of places. Sigrid provided an outstanding tour, highlighting a variety of memorable sites. Sigrid was a knowledgeable and attentive guide who definitely catered to our interests. I would not hesitate to book another walking tour with this company and would hope to see Sigrid again.

A comprehensive and delightful tour of Oslo. A pleasant surprise. - This tour was a pleasant surprise during a brief vacation visit to Oslo. We signed up for this tour to get a brief overview of Oslo, the city, its history and heritage. Emilie was our tour guide. She provided this to us in spades. Additionally she has a delightful and personable personality which made the tour even more enjoyable. Absolutely, the facts and history of Oslo were provided. But we received much more. As an example, Emilie gave us a tour of the main library of Oslo which really struck a deep level of interest for our family. No question, a comprehensive discussion of the major tourist sights was provided and demonstrated. This lead to a follow-up visit by our family to a museum later that day, which turned out to be a highlight of a 10-day Scandinavian tour. Last, we were very pleased that Emilie provided factual information in a very personable manner, during which there was no indication of political inclinations.
