    Expected an authentic guide, someone from the area who would be passionate and knowledgeable about Norwegian culture. Not a flippant American with no attachment to the country's heritage. It was disappointing to say the least.

    Two and half hours of walking tour seeing some fun & hidden sights along the fjord coastline. If you want to go for something different than the normal tourist sightseeing and hear about sustainable development in Oslo this is a great choice.

    Wonderful tour really enjoyed it and my guide was great cheerful and helpful. Glad Viator didn’t cancel on me for being solo. Wish more companies offered tours to solo female travelers. Recommend this to all first time visitors.

    I had a great time on this tour. We were on a cruise and this was much better value than anything we have done with them. Shaf, our guide, was amazing. He explained all about Norway and their Christmas customs. He was very knowledgeable and he answered all of our questions well. He was so enthusiastic and passionate about Norway and his ability to explain the history was great. In the Christmas market he explained all of the customs and even read us a story to explain why there are trolls. The food was amazing too. My husband was very impressed and he especially liked the Grogg. We had a brilliant time and would recommend this tour to anyone.
