The Grand Oslo Ride : Experiencia en bicicleta eléctrica

Nice e-bike tour of Oslo. Bikes were in good condition, and were able to see the highlights on this tour.

Managed to see loads of Oslo, Francisco is knowledgeable and friendly. The e-bike felt fun and safe.

We had a great 3 hour e-bike tour with Fran (Francisco). In addition to seeing all of Oslo’s highlights, we had extra time to explore Vigeland Sculpture Park. Fran’s knowledge of Oslo was fantastic and he made the trip enjoyable and safe. We had good communication beforehand and he took extra care regarding traffic and safety. We were able to also spend extra time at the Opera House and library. The bikes were well charged and easy to adapt to our heights and needs. We also had comfortable helmets. Our family would highly recommend Oslo Tours and specifically Fran.

We had Erika as our guide! She was super patient and kind with my group! She showed us so many beautiful places and gave us time to explore. Would definitely recommend! Thank you!

Nice tour to the famous places in Oslo. Friendly guide and friendly staff. You get time to look around yourself in between.

We were on location half an hour before the start. No one was there and no one came. We called but were not answered and after leaving voice mail never called back. TripAdvisor called and they reached out, but they couldn't either. After waiting another half hour and calling again no one saw. Never called again, either. So it seems unreliable.

I booked The Grand Oslo Ride: E Bike Experience for July 4th, 2026, with a 5:30 PM departure. Wanting to confirm the exact meeting point at Fredensborgveien 22F, 0177 Oslo, Norway, I called the contact number listed on the ticket starting at 4:03 PM. I kept trying, on and off, right up until 5:30 PM, and no one ever answered. We still made our way to the listed location and arrived around 5:25 PM, ahead of the departure time. There was no guide, no staff, and no indication that anyone from the tour operator had been there. We waited, but no one showed up. I've been booking tours through Viator for many years and have generally had good experiences, which is what makes this so disappointing. This wasn't a minor hiccup — we had zero communication from the operator despite repeated attempts to reach them, and we were left standing at a meeting point with no tour, no explanation, and no way to reach anyone. We paid for a service we never received. I'd strongly caution others before booking this particular tour and would encourage Viator to look into how this operator handles customer communication.

Our group was 20 people which was way too many for this activity. The group was constantly getting split up by traffic and lights. The sites were enjoyable but many were so close that they could be done by a walking tour rather than by bike. The bikes were good.

We went to all the places that were listed on the itinerary. My bike was fine, although the brakes needed some work. There was some disorganization with assigning bikes to everyone - like they didn't know what sizes they needed and they only had just enough. My biggest problem was that I didn't feel safe. Not all the tour operator's fault. It was world cup game day and there were lots of people downtown. Lots of construction too. BUT, there were places we should have walked. We should have been wearing vests so we could be seen. (Like "I'm a tourist and don't get mad at me.") The guides did not have any vests or colourful helmets so it was hard to see them and sometimes they went ahead without the rest of the group who were stuck at a light. We all managed to make it, but it was kind of scary at times. I also felt like the information they gave us could have been found in any guide book, which is ok, but a few interesting stories or personal experiences would have been more ...interesting. All in all, we got what we paid for, but I should have lowered my expectations. I've been on many bike tours. Too many people for the streets (2 groups of 10 instead of 1 group of 20 with 2 guides??), lack of safety instructions or directions and kind of boring. Having said that, the guides were very nice and I hope this helps with future tours.

Great tour, wonderful way to see the highlights of Oslo. The Ebikes certainly power you up some of the hills. Well maintained equipment.
