Our tour was really smooth and lovely. Alex was our guide and he was knowledgeable and friendly. All the food was excellent. It was nice to see the variety of food here in Oslo and learn a little more about the history.

Great guide. Knows a lot about the place. Quite expensive for the limited food you get so it feels like you’re paying for a good guide

Kevin was outstanding! Very friendly and knowledgeable. My favorite was the fish dinner. The tour was well organized and we barely waited for our food. Not sure how to improve 😊
