Wonderful tour! Our guide, Annabelle, was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We were a bit worried about cycling on busy streets but she took us on a route with fairly little traffic. The bikes were great and despite not being a frequent/ experienced cyclist I was able to keep up easily. We did have one group member get separated, but upon realizing Annabelle went back herself and searched until they were found.

The tour was great! Chile brought a good mix of being an expert of Oslo’s history with her personal knowledge of living their and her personality. She was friendly and professional- even having to gently tell someone they were in the wrong place when they tried to join us halfway through. She had loads of great recommendations and made me super excited to take on Oslo after!

It was nice to bike around the city and get info from the guide. Patrick was our guide and he did a good job of explaining the history of the sites we visited. Bonus ia the good weather. Definitely better than just walking around.

Our guide was so helpful and knowledgeable about the city and the history surrounding the locations we visited.

Maria was a great guide, very personable and knew a lot about history, myths, and current cultural points.
