A comprehensive and delightful tour of Oslo. A pleasant surprise. - This tour was a pleasant surprise during a brief vacation visit to Oslo. We signed up for this tour to get a brief overview of Oslo, the city, its history and heritage. Emilie was our tour guide. She provided this to us in spades. Additionally she has a delightful and personable personality which made the tour even more enjoyable. Absolutely, the facts and history of Oslo were provided. But we received much more. As an example, Emilie gave us a tour of the main library of Oslo which really struck a deep level of interest for our family. No question, a comprehensive discussion of the major tourist sights was provided and demonstrated. This lead to a follow-up visit by our family to a museum later that day, which turned out to be a highlight of a 10-day Scandinavian tour. Last, we were very pleased that Emilie provided factual information in a very personable manner, during which there was no indication of political inclinations.

Amazing Norway Adventure - Tamara did an amazing job organizing a beautiful trip to Norway for us. And she did do on short notice.
She understood what we wanted to see and do and planned it perfectly.
We were driving and Tamara planned a great route with interesting stops and scenic drives such as Eagle Road and the Atlantic Drive.
We loved the activities such as the Fløien funicular, the Loen Skylift, the RIB boat trip, the fjord boat trips.
We loved the accommodations such as the Union Hotel in Geiranger, the Rorbuer accommodations on the Lofoten Islands.

Great tour - Excellent tour with Olav. He is knowledgeable, friendly and made a point to ask us what we were interested in, if we needed water or bathroom breaks, and answered all our questions.

Best walking tour of Amsterdam with professional guide - history lesson on the go. This was the best walking tour ever- - Daughter 15 year old and me had the most amazing history “class” including facts, art, architecture and political views of Amsterdam and the Netherlands - all while walking around in a super fun and relaxed atmosphere - our amazing tour guide and his adorable dog Toky took us all over the city - 3 hours of fun and learning that captivates even my teenager- highly recommend!

Perfect walking tour - Interesting and great way to see the city before deciding what you would like to spend more time at. Marie was the perfect person to easily guide our family ( parents, kids 11/15 and grandparent). The 3 hours went quick but perfect for what we needed.

Marathon of a tour - Emilie was wonderful but unknowing, the Oslo marathon was going the day of the tour which changed our ability to take direct routes to just about anything . Was still a great experience and educational.

Disappointing private guide tour - Walking around Oslo on a great sunny day
Unfortunately the tour was very disappointing - guide was a very nice person but unprepared to be a guide - not great English and did not have much information to share. Tour was somewhat boring and at the end she did not know how to help us with basic public transportation - we have done tours with your company all over the world and have always loved them and given great reviews - this one was definitely not worth the money, sorry
