“We enjoyed 2 hours of well paced information, being taken round the sites in the city. Our guide was patient as we asked questions, told our own anecdotes or stopped to take pictures. She made sure that even in the dark (our tour was from 4.00 to 6.00 p.m. which in December in Oslo is dark) we missed nothing and her stories about Norse mythology and Trolls etc was all I hoped it would be. The tour ran to time and her English was very good, so you were understood and she could understand you. Always useful when you want an English speaking tour guide. Would definitely recommend this walking…”
