Best Of Oslo Guided Walking Tour

For this walking tour, we had Oliver. Oliver was very knowledgeable and provided interesting information as we walked. I would recommend this walking tour to anyone.

Excellent walking tour with a very knowledgeable guide - Menji. She’s an American living and studying in Oslo. She was delightful.

This was a perfect blend of sightseeing and historical information in a 2 hour walk around the city. Our guide was really informative and the pace was just right.

Great overview of the city’s sites. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She spoke perfect English.

Pretty good. Our guide, Oliver, was very friendly. He’s a German native who has lived in Oslo for five years. He gave us a lot (too much) info about politics and current events. We would have liked more info about the sites we were standing at rather than what he did talk about. I think he did his best and could use a better list of information / training about the sites. He was good, perfect English, and did a good job but the tour could use more info about the list of sites in the list on the itinerary.

Guide didn't turn up and there was no communication about that. Contact numbers did not help either.

We had an informative and enjoyable with our knowledgeable guide Oliver. Learnt a lot about Norway and Oslo and enjoyed strolling around the streets and sights of Oslo. Would recommend.

Great way to learn about the history and major sites around Oslo. Our tour guide was great and we lucked out with great weather!

Judit did a great job of walking us around town and showing us or rather explain explaining to us the things that we had seen the day previously on our own solo walk. She was very knowledgable and answered all of our questions as we went along. It was well worth the two hours.

A very good overview of Oslo with history and local culture included. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable.

Csilla was a perfect tour guide! She was brilliant at imparting alot of information about Oslo & Norwegian history and cultural life in an interesting and amusing way. Thank you for recommending that we go inside the library and opera house to enjoy the design & architecture. Very interesting tour.

Great tour and thank you to Oliver for not cancelling eve though it was just me! I enjoyed tie chat en route.

Nice tour. Enjoyed all the history and recommendations for the city. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.

The tour was cancelled without any notification. We are now 4 hours past the cancellation and my funds have not been refunded. This may be a scam. Stay away.

Very informative tour. The guide was lovely and knowledgeable, able to answer everybody’s questions and provide insight into life in Oslo. Highly recommended!

Our guide, Tetiana, was the best. She was very enthusiastic and engaging. Great 2 hour tour! Well worth it.

We had one day cruise stop in Oslo and wanted to see as much of the city as possible. This walking tour hit all of the major sights in the city centre. Our guide, Tetiana, made the tour exceptional. She was funny, charming and incredibly knowledgeable about Norwegian history and culture. She emigrated from Ukraine 12 years ago and has fully integrated herself into Oslo life. She’s a great advertisement for Norway. And a fine example of what immigrants can add to a city.

lot of walking, but guide Kinji was knowledgeable, smart and helpful with our questions. She had lots of stories about historical events

Nice overview tour with knowledgable tour guide. Just be aware this is a high level overview of key sites on Oslo which was perfect for us since we were first timers in Oslo.

Our guide was wonderful! She was born and raised in Oslo. Her English was superb so easy to understand. We had a great tour of downtown Oslo learning about the history as well as local Norwegian culture & customs.

The tour covered many sites and points of interest. Our Norwegian guide spoke fluent English and communicated exceptionally well.

We had a wonderful tour with an experienced guide - Oliver. Not only did he point out the sites and provide historical context, he also gave us a lot of information about Norway, Oslo, and the history of the area. Highly recommended!

Emily was fantastic!!!! Very informative! She was extremely knowledgeable! Really enjoyed our time in Oslo

This was a great tour. Tour guide was very knowledgeable. We had a great overview of the history of Oslo. She gave us lots of ideas of things to do during our visit to Oslo.

We were given the wrong location for the English speaking tour on our tickets so we missed the tour. We have requested multiple times for a refund but Viatour has refused to give us a refund despite proof on our tickets. Possible glitch in sign-up on the web site which gives two locations to meet the tour when in reality each location is for a tour in a specific language. Our tickets did say English speaking tour but for the German speaking tour location. I have used Viatour on several occasions before and had been happy with my experiences. I was surprised at the lack of follow up service on this particular tour.

The walk around Oslo was pleasant and we saw a lot of sights. Our guide was very informative on the history of Oslo. A very nice tour.

This is a great tour for a crash course in history for the main area. We were so cold from the wind, but that was ok us. She did a great job explaining the sites we did go to. I dont think this is for kids, just adults. We did enjoy what we saw.

From the moment we started, our guide Ann Marie brought the city to life with fascinating insights into its rich history. It was incredible to learn about how Oslo has evolved over time, and hearing stories about its people like the royal family, Henrik Ibsen (playwright), and Edvard Munch (artist). We enjoyed going into the Opera House and strolling around. She also told us about changing of the guards in front of Palace, which happened after our tour so great timing. Awesome time in a small group with our guide. She made it fun, engaging, and educational.

Great walking trip around Oslo with a very knowledgable guide! Beautiful weather and Anastasia (our guide) was lovely!

Judit is a wonderful tour guide. We enjoyed the tour very much, but some of the guests were in a hurry and rushed us along. Judit tried hard to get them corraled.

We booked an English walking tour via Viator and received confirmation with meeting details from the Vox City the day before. On the tour day, no guide showed up at the meeting point. After contacting the Vox City Tour, we were told the meeting point was actually elsewhere. We rushed there—still no guide. When we called again, the staff was rude and said no English tour was operating that day, and we should contact Viator for a refund. Our refund request was later denied without any explanation. Extremely unprofessional, and disappointing—avoid this tour.

We had a great walking tour with our guide Csilla, who was very knowledgeable about the history of Oslo and Norway. Csilla also kept things current sharing tips on where to eat, shop and relax! My husband and I, as well as our late teen kids, had a great 2 hours (started and ended on time). We got our orientation to Oslo through the tour in the morning which set us up with a good agenda for the afternoon. Thanks Csilla!

Olav did an excellent tour with information about history and all the important stops along the way. He also answered questions about what to do after and recommendations. We saw the many different places where City Hall had burned down in the past, and then finished near the beautiful current City Hall.

Exceptional tour of center city Oslo with great coverage and excellent recommendations for food and museums.

It was very nice to know a bit of history and expend my knowledge about the Norwegian people. The buildings look amazing and the guide had a lot of knowledge to explain something if we had any questions. Very lovely~

Anastasia was absolutely AMAZING!!! My partner and I booked the 10am tour but went to an incorrect meetup point and ended up super late. At around 10:30 we decided to give the tour company a call to see if we could meet up with the group at a different point. Turns out we were the only 2 people on the tour and Anastasia kindly met us again at the meet up point around 10:40. She didn’t need to do that as we were atrociously late, but yet she did which was extremely kind of her. She then did the tour with us for the full two hours, allowed us to stop at a tea shop for an unplanned break and gave us an additional 40 minutes of her time beyond the tour’s end time so we could do the full thing. The tour itself was aLeo incredible! She is very intelligent and knowledgeable of Norwegian history, current events, and geopolitics around the world so we had some great conversations. We HIGHLY recommend this tour. Anastasia literally made our vacation and time in Oslo.

This was a really fun tour and great way to see and learn about Oslo. Our guide was great and we had a nice, small group.

The walking tour we had planed months ago was cancelled without any notice from the operator, nor the OTA platform get your guide; then they responded with a lie accusing me neglecting my emails. I have all my email communication documented about this day tour and none of those was about your cancellation. I even had a reminder about the day before departure. Day in Oslo was ruined, because of this incompetent operator.

Our tour guide Emilia was excellent, informative and very well informed on the history. Pleasant walk I would recommend this tour . You’ ll get to know where things are in central Oslo which is a very charming city .

We did not order this trip. We could not cancel it as it did not show on the website. We will be requesting to have our payment refunded.

The operator didn't respond to any of my messages and their phone would not answer when I had to report that I was arriving late due to a delayed flight. I ended up arriving 12-13 minutes late with no tour guide/group or response. This lack of response may be due to it being a weekend, but am disappointed that I rushed out as soon as possible to meet with no response and no refund or credit.

I recently took the *Best of Oslo 2-Hour Tour* with Chilla as our guide, and it was an outstanding experience. Chilla's clear communication and deep knowledge of Oslo's history and culture made the tour both informative and engaging. She skillfully navigated us through the city's highlights, sharing fascinating insights at each stop. Chilla's enthusiasm and approachable manner made the tour enjoyable for everyone. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Oslo with an excellent guide!

This was a great way to see the city and get some history! The amount of walking was not excessive. The pace was great--not too fast, not too slow

For a group tour (8 or 9 people) this was a very good tour. Anastasia was a good guide who knew a lot on Osls’s history, economy and architecture. She struggled for English words at time but always made her point. We’ve had better private tours (Stockholm) but this was less expensive and almost as satisfying.

Excellent tour, informative, and well paced. Amelia is a very good guide. It is a good introduction to Oslo.

A wonderful tour of downtown Oslo. Our guide was lovely as she pointed out local buildings and points of interest. A great way to spend your first morning in Oslo.

Interesting and fun, the guide was very knowledgeable, approachable and cheerful. The tour gives a good overview of the city's main POI. Worth it!

Very informative, loved being outdoors, good exercise! Views of the Opera House, stopping memorials, and walking along the main streets of Oslo.
