Great introduction to langrenn / cross country skiing. - Having never skied before, my friend and I signed up for this 3 hr introduction from an advert on Facebook and were not sure what was going to happen; however, we were delighted by the whole experience. Håvard was an excellent teacher- he taught clearly, methodically, and patiently with a lovely kind manner. The ski arena in Skullerud was perfect for beginners (it has snow machines so there's always snow in the winter), all the ski equipment was provided (NB not clothes) and was of great quality. We had a lovely group of ten people from all around the world and it was a really fun atmosphere. I was surprised how quickly I took to it and my friend and I agreed that it was the highlight of our week/her visit. Hot choclate and snacks at the end were perfect. We were also super lucky with the sunny weather. The whole experience was great value for money. I'm planning on bringing some work colleagues back. Peter W. Feb 17th 2024

Skiing with Vikings - Håvard was fantastic. He is an excellent teacher for beginners and advanced. This was my first time skiing, and he took the time to explain everything step-by-step. Always smiling and willing to give you tips to improve. He brought us traditional snacks from Norway and hot cocoa. Special mention deserves his mom who came to help with the photographs. Such a sweet lady. The group started as four strangers, we ended up as friends :)

A great experience - "This was a great experience. I learned a lot and Haavard was a patient teacher. Unfortunately the weather was very bad (more rain and less). But we took a break with a pastry and a very tasty Hot Chocolate. Thank you for the great day."

Amazing Experience - BOOK THIS!! Håvard is a great teacher and provides all the necessary equipment. Learning to cross country ski was so incredibly fun and challenging in a good way. This was a great value, and I would redo this experience over and over if I could.

Highlight of an amazing trip - This was the highlight of a great trip to Oslo for my partner and I. It is a great way to experience the real Norwegian countryside whilst on a city break. We had no prior experience cross country skiing, or skiing in general, however Håvard’s tutorials allowed us to pick up the basics very quickly. In Håvard you’ll find an instant friend, his knowledge of the area and rich stories make for interesting conversations and his care for each member of the trip was amazing. We cannot recommend this experience more highly and we’d like to thank Håvard for making the trip unforgettable!
