Unbelievably awesome tour, not to miss! - This is truly an incredible tour! The best one I have ever done via Viator (although none of their tours have been disappointing so far, either). The accommodations are super nice (both the bus and the boat are superb). The tour guide was off the charts - unbelievably full of knowledge, vigor, and passion. I would highly recommend this tour! It’s worth every penny and then some. Even though I only had a chance to spend one day in Oslo, thanks to this tour, it felt like I spent much more time here, that’s how extensive it was.

Excellent Tour Bus and Guide - Excellent Tour Bus and Guide. I enjoyed 😉 every minute. The Vigeland Park is a must see. I highly recommend this tour. Bus was brand new and even has an emergency bathroom on it.

Great way to get a look at the top sights in Oslo - Oslo is a big beautiful city with loads of things fascinating things to see. This tour gets you around to the top sights and along the way shows you the city as well. History and local lore are discussed as you drive along in the comfortable bus. The friendly and well informed guide speaks perfect English and is a great narrator of all you will see. There was a good amount of time at the various museums and parks so you could get a reasonable look at them. The final stop for the fiord boat trip was a delightful ending to a well planned day of touring. We felt the trip was well priced for the abundance of things you got to see and learn about.

Good tour for seeing the highlights of Oslo - Bus ride around the city highlights many of the interesting spots in Oslo. The stop At Frogner Park is fantastic! We also visited the ship museum commemorating the voyage by Nansen to the South Pole. It is certainly worth s visit. Our guide, Christian was very knowledgeable. The only thing I would say is we probably lingered a bit too long outside while at the open air museum. It was a rainy day & toward the end of the day - I think people were getting uncomfortable being wet so it could have been shortened - people were losing interest. Also, the guide should take note of people who cannot easily walk and kindly suggest not going to areas where it maybe be difficult to walk

A great snapshot of the city! - I would highly recommend the tour! It's a fantastic snapshot of the city if you only have limited time. The guides are knowledgable and informative and the bus is very comfortable. There was a fairly short amount of time at each stop but that enables lots of stops along the tour.

Land and Fjords- a lovely day! - Our tour guide Mari was knowledgeable of the city and history. We liked how she shared personal stories to help us connect to Oslo. The Ski Jump, out door museum and Fram museum gave great insight to cultural aspects of Norway. The Fjord Cruise was a calm way to visit the waterways and end the day of touring.

Good for adults not for kids - Fun for adults but not so much for a 4 and 9 yr old. Cruise was fun for family. A little more time for lunch would be nice. Otherwise, fun and educational for adults and maybe teens.

A good introduction to Oslo - The tour was well organized and, like all tours this size, really had to keep moving to get everything in. Our tour guide (Daniel, I believe) was very good, and very tall - a fact that helped in finding him throughout the day. He was knowledgeable about everything we covered , having listening devices (like quiet vox) would have helped in some of the more crowded areas and in keeping up if you chose to stop. We did get left behind at the entrance to one of the museums when the guide pointed out where the bathrooms were but then just continued on...we were luckily able to find him later partially due to his height.

Marathon city tour - We were able to see all of the offered sites, and the tour guide and bus driver were friendly and informative. The Oslofjord boat ride was disappointing as it was more of a harbor cruise, not a true fjord cruise.

bad fjord part - The tour was great except for the Fjord cruise. The had a QR code to try to get info as we traveled. We could not get it to work and no one was on the cruise for customer service. This part of the tour was greatly disappointing.
