Food adventures in Oslo - Ella our guide knew all the best places for a variety of foods! Starting at a historic fish market with traditional salmon, prawns and herring then to Norwegian waffles with goat cheese and jam and cream to beer, cider paired with wild game sausages and cheese. It was perfect! Beautiful scenery along the river too! I highly recommend this tour!

Great! - We thoroughly enjoyed this tour, particularly our guide, Eleonora. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. I have food allergies and she was able to give me an alternative. We particularly enjoyed the beer and cider the most. The hotdog was also an interesting experience. We would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Great and tasty tour! - Despite the drizzle once in a while, we had a great tour, walking through the city and learning a bit of its history. It was just the two of us, so we spent quality time in conversation with our guide and tasting the various, preselected dishes, beginning with seafood, waffles with brown cheese, and many other delicacies. Can recommend full heartedly!

The food selections are... - The food selections are very good, but know you will walk approx 3km total and end a bit of a walk from central Oslo.

Decent tour but needs improvement - For the price of the tour, I honestly expected a little more. One of the last places we went to was a food hall and our dish was charcuterie. I thought with all the restaurants inside that place we would get more than charcuterie plus I don't eat meat so basically all I had was cheese. Also, I didn't really care for eating off the same plate with strangers. I've been on many food tours and we always had our own plate.
