Alex was a wonderful tour guide - he took us to parts of Oslo we would never have seen otherwise. Loved sampling salmon, waffle and brown cheese and Norwegian beer and cider.

Good guide, useful introduction to the city; a lot of waiting around in the heat for orders which could have been avoided with a bit of advance planning but this gave us a chance to chat with others in the group so overall it was an enjoyable experience which I’d recommend.

A pleasant trip around Oslo
I enjoyed this trip as the food was good and that is kind of what you expect from a good tasting tour. Would recommend if you want to get to know Norwegian cuisine a little more. Perhaps not so recommended if what you are after is a traditional tour guide telling you every fact. Our guide was really lovely, but had a habit of talking very gently and not necessarily to the whole group, but only those closest to him.
My favourite bit was the brown cheese and waffles. Who knew that sour cream and jam go so well with these! Have a look at the pictures here, not the photo for trip advisor. You are going to be eating them from a paper plate whilst standing!
Prepare yourself for walking! I love walking and think this is a good way to see some of the less-touristy parts of Oslo. I especially liked being down by the river and with the ducks and through the arts district. Even though the trip advisor page says it's wheelchair appropriate, some of the terrains we walked in were definitely not, so contact the company in advance if you have mobility limiters. I would imagine that they could adjust the route with ease.
Lastly, a bit thank you to everyone at this company - we didn't really have to queue for most of the food/drinks and all of your group enjoyed the experience. The free stickers now adorn my suitcase 🙂
