Excellent tour with Katerina - Highly recommend this tour. I was lucky enough to have Katerina as my tour guide, who was so kind and full of history and interesting stories to share. The food was also good, don't have lunch beforehand as it'll fill you up- we had a starter plate of different cured meats and aquavit gele, followed by pølse, ending with an extravagant waffle for desert. Getting hungry writing this now!

Absolutely worth it! - In my opinion, this was completely worth it! We’ve done these types of tours in the USA before and none of those compared to this one. For us, we liked everything about it! The food, the locations, the information we learned along the way, and most of all…our tour guide Katarina! First: if you’re expecting this to be a buffet, you should adjust your expectations. Think of this as sampling as you tour the city. But as mentioned earlier, this exceeded our expectations compared to other food tours we’ve done. This is the most food we’ve had on a Street Food Tour through this website. The locations she picked were great but what was truly special was all of the information she gave us along the way! I felt as though I was ready to explore all of Oslo thanks to her advice (and food recommendations).

Mathallen - It's always nice to walk around a new city, but now with Guide and food you learn a little more about the city. It was beautiful.

Walk, snack and learn in Oslo - Great tour by Katerina. We got to learn a bit about some of the foods that locals to Oslo enjoy and some of the history behind them… along with some tid bits about the neighborhoods we walked through as well. An enjoyable few hours well spent.

Food, art, and culture wrapped in a delicious package - Astrid was a phenomenonal guide and really went above and beyond to answer all the group's questions. The food stops were exactly what we had hoped to experience on this tour and we would highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Oslo. Food plays such a huge part of any culture and it is a good way to get to know any city!

Excellent! - Each food stop was unique and had their own background story as to how they got started. Fun and tasty norwegian twists on common foods that we enjoyed!
