Wonderful Medieval City! - I was staying in Barcelona and decided to visit Girona for just one day, and this walking tour with Christian was the highlight! He brought the city's rich medieval history to life, guiding us through its charming streets. Even with limited time, I felt like I really got to know Girona. Definitely worth it if you're visiting from Barcelona!

Must do in Stavanger! - As someone who used to live in Stavanger, I wasn’t sure if a walking tour would show me anything new, but Andrea exceeded all expectations. She had such a fresh perspective on the city, pointing out details I had never noticed before. It was a real treat to rediscover the city with a friend, and Andrea’s passion made it even better. Whether you're new to Stavanger or have been here before, this tour is a must! Andrea’s knowledge and energy kept us engaged the entire time.

Walking Stavanger! - I joined a walking tour of Stavanger and it was a fantastic way to see the city. We walked through the picturesque streets of Gamle Stavanger and then visited the impressive Stavanger Municipality. Zahid's knowledge of both historical and contemporary Stavanger gave me a well-rounded understanding of the city. His warm and approachable manner made the tour feel like a leisurely walk with a friend rather than a typical guided tour. Highly recommended!

Guide does not show up - The Guide never showed up. We waited more than half an hour at the agreed place. We feel cheated. Eventually went hiking themselves without Guide.
