Pretty Views Close to Oslo - Margarita took us on a beautiful hike outside Oslo. We enjoyed the scenery and conversation. Would definitely recommend to see some nature close to the city. We also stopped at a pretty spot for some treats and hot chocolate!

A day in Oslo - It was such a pleasure to go hiking with Ingunn and her dog Nero. The hike was about moderate difficulty, which I was fine with, we got to see some good views, and who can’t forget the waffles! The only thing was, we were a little rushed for time because we had to catch the train to Oslo to do the food tour as well. I would definitely inquire with Ingunn about the food tour because it gives you the opportunity to walk around Oslo and experience Norwegian cuisine as well. Overall, it was a great vibe and I would gladly do it again!

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING - After arriving to meeting point Ingunn met us with the most charming dog that is Nero. To our suprise it was only my wife and me booked for that tour (great for us). We had absolutely amazing tour through the forest of Norway. Did not expect it to be so breathtakingly stunning as it was. I cannot count the amount of times i muttered "WoW". The highlight had to be sitting lakeside eating delicious homemade waffles and jam with a choice of hot drinks. Or maybe Nero thinking he could carry a 8ft branch through forest. Ingunn was personable and chatty and Nero charming and comical. 100% recommend this tour. It is so picturesque, so many "Windows" screen saver picture opportunities it was the highlight of our trip to Norway.

Best hike in Oslo - I highly recommend this hiking trip, it was the best part of my travel to Oslo. It's a perfect blend of adventure, local culture, and delicious Norwegian waffle with traditional cheese. If you're looking for a memorable outdoor experience with locals in Norway, this is definitely the way to go! Nero is so friendly and a lovely companion, Ingunn was a great guide and she made me laugh all the time. Thanks for everything Ingunn!
