Overview

Explore Oslo with a passionate, independent guide.

Discover modern gems, dive into Oslo’s rich history, enjoy fjord views & get great tips for local hotspots.

Why choose this tour?

As an independent guide, I've created my own tours, driven by my passion for Oslo’s rich culture and history. After years of designing itineraries/scripts for tour companies, I’ve embarked on my own to offer a more personal, authentic experience. Unlike the generic tours provided by companies that subcontract local guides, my tours are thoughtfully crafted and full of personal insights and stories.

I JUST started on Viator/Tripadvisor, so no reviews yet., but I am highest rated on other booking platforms (google me).

My average tour group is 2-4. Private tour vibes, group tour prices.

Suitable for:
* Solo Travellers
* Couples
* Groups of friends
* Photo takers
* If you want to see as much as possible in a short time
* Anyone who wants a unique, personal experience with a focus on culture and history

The experience offers several options, check yours above
  • Tram tickets are included if the Vigeland Park option is booked, as we will take a quick tram ride there.
  • Snacks & drinks not included but can be bought along the way

Meeting point
Our meeting point is the “Creature from Iddefjord” sculpture ("Skapning fra Iddefjord") outside the main entrance to Deichman Bjørvika Library. See the tour photos. This is a quiet spot (not used as a meeting point for any other tours), so I'm generally the only other person there, I will find you!
Return details
Ends at City Hall (Rådhusset), unless you book the Vigeland Park extension, in which case the tour ends at the Vigeland Park.

    As we move along the waterfront you will learn fascinating details about the comprehensive urban development that has shaped the Bjørvika district, and which includes the Munch Museum, the Opera, and some other buildings that may surprise you.

    We will ascend to the highest point of the Akershus Fortress grounds for stunning views over the Oslofjord. On a sunny day, you will even be able to spot the famous Holmenkollen Ski Jump.
  • Karl Johans Gate
    We carry on towards the heart of Oslo, Karl Johan street. If you like shopping, take note as you might want to return here later.
