Our tour with Inger was fantastic! She took us not only to key sights in Oslo but also deviated to other spots that interested us. She was knowledgeable, personable and very attentive to our comfort (it was cold and rainy so she made sure to take us indoors when possible) and gave us great recommendations for places to explore on our own after the tour. Guides such as Inger are the reason we always book a walking tour when we arrive in a new city- we learned so much in our time with her and that added to our overall wonderful experience in Oslo!

Marianna was our tour guide and she was quite the trooper. We came in on a cruise ship and she was given incorrect information about where to meet us. She practically ran from the wrong location to pick us up! We saw a lot of sites in Oslo including the beautiful Opera House, Library, City Hall, and the main shopping street. Great tour!

Our guide, pronounced TUNA, was fabulous! She shared a balance of history, stories, architecture and fun in our walk. We covered all the main highlights of downtown Oslo so well.

We enjoyed our walking tour in Oslo. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The two hour duration was perfect to see the highlights from the street and to orient us to the city…it gave us a taste as to what we want to go back to and experience in more detail.

We were worried when the guide arrived late and we had to call but he did finally show up. It was strange that we started at the Nobel Peace Center, abit out of the way, and he didn’t talk about it until I asked. He was very knowledgeable about Oslo and the history having lived there all of his life. We went to the fortress and parliament which was excellent. We asked him to skip the palace as we had been there but instead go to the Opera House that he wasn’t going to include. We also went to the library. It was a good way to spend a couple of hours seeing parts of Oslo.

Family Zoom tour of Oslo! Our family from all over the USA had the very best experience with Craig! He was amazing. Three generations of us were able to experience a private walking tour of Oslo "together". We were supposed to travel to Norway on March 20, 2020 but the pandemic prevented our travel. Thanks to OURWay, we got to have two hours in Oslo. I can't recommend this tour higher. Absolutely spectacular and I would definitely recommend this tour in person or on Zoom!! Dawn

We staying in Oslo during the last two nights of an 8 night trip to Norway and on our last full day, we embarked on a private walking/riding tour of Oslo. Craig, our guide was very informative, engaging and humorous. We had great time with him while getting a full dose of all the Oslo City highlights, we saw everything from the parliament building, Vigeland park, to the Viking museum and pretty much everything in between. We highly recommend this tour; especially, if you are visiting Oslo for the first time as it will get you familiar with the history as well as orient you with the city layout. Craig was also able to provide great dining recommendations. We highly recommend this tour.
