What to expect
Oslo
See Oslo through the eyes of someone who lives and loves it—wandering vibrant streets, scenic parks, and tucked-away neighborhoods. This isn’t just a tour; it’s a personalized experience shaped around your interests. Before your walk, your host will reach out with a short questionnaire to co-create your ideal day. From iconic landmarks to hidden gems, every stop is chosen just for you.
Begin your day surrounded by expressive sculptures in this lush, tree-lined park, home to over 200 works by Gustav Vigeland. Your host may guide you from here down Karl Johans gate, Oslo’s main boulevard, lined with cozy cafés and capped by the stately Royal Palace.
The Mini Bottle Gallery
Tucked away and delightfully eccentric, this gallery showcases one of the world’s most curious collections—a local favorite few travelers know about.
Pass by the Neoclassical palace, and if your timing is right, witness the ceremonial changing of the guard at 13:30—an Oslo tradition.
Torggata
Wander into this lesser-known street filled with pastel-hued buildings, quirky boutiques, and inviting coffee spots. Your host may point out a favorite local hangout to explore later.
Skirt the edges of this medieval stronghold and follow your host toward Oslo’s harbor—where modern design meets historical intrigue.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
