Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Op de dag van de activiteit ontmoeten we elkaar bij het Tijgerbeeld voor het centraal station van Oslo 5 minuten voor de aangegeven tijd.
We beginnen ons avontuur en lopen richting Oslo Opera House. Thuisbasis van de Noorse Nationale Opera en Ballet, dit moderne gebouw zal u verbazen!
Daarna wandelen we richting Oslo Børs, een beurs in de Scandinavische landen die Noorwegens enige gereguleerde markten voor effectenhandel biedt!
Daarna lopen we door Christiania Square waar we Christian IV's Handschoen zullen zien. Ken je de betekenis van dit monument? We laten het als verrassing voor vandaag!
Dit 13e-eeuwse middeleeuwse kasteel werd oorspronkelijk gebouwd om de stad te beschermen en een koninklijke residentie te bieden. In de loop der jaren is het gebruikt als een militaire basis, een gevangenis, en nu het tijdelijke kantoor van de premier van Noorwegen!
We passeren het Nobel Vredescentrum, waar tentoonstellingen ter ere van de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede worden gehouden.
Terwijl onze wandeltocht verder gaat, komen we langs meer iconische gebouwen zoals het stadhuis van Oslo, het Nationaal Theater en het Koninklijk Paleis, waarbij we de elegante gevels van elk gebouw bewonderen terwijl we meer leren over hun rijke geschiedenis.
Nationaaltheater
Als we het einde van onze tijd samen naderen, bewonderen we de University Aula, gelegen op de oude campus van de universiteit, voordat we Karl Johan's gate bereiken, de hoofdstraat van Oslo City.
Het Noorse koninklijk paleis
Langs deze straat vinden we het Storting-gebouw, het parlement van Noorwegen. Tenslotte, na het bewonderen van de prachtige architectuur van het Noorse parlement, sluiten we onze 1,5 uur durende wandeltocht af. Tot ziens!

We had a good time at this tour. Nicola was on time, well prepared with the little loudspeaker and seemed quite professional. The places we visited were well selected and he presented the information good! We did like that he gave us a few information about himself so we could get a feeling who is standing in front of us. It was also possible to ask a few questions.
We had a wonderful guide, Nichola, for our walking tour in Oslo. We really enjoyed his narration and he made it enjoyable in spite of the rain.
Oslo is a fantastic city to explore on foot. Our guide, Jessie, was fabulous. Her enthusiasm for Oslo and her knowledge of it was infectious and very engaging. The tour was worth every Krone it cost.
It was a knowledgeable and friendly guide who made sure that everyone got a benefit from the trip. I was somewhat amazed when we arrived at the venue and learned that the event was free - Tripadvisor took DKK 500 for the trip. It will be a good practice if I get refunded at least half, the rest as a contribution to the association that is responsible for the free guided tours. Super nice trip, but unfortunately an experience of being scammed by Tripadvisor.
Hi 😊 I understand the confusion! The way payments work can vary depending on booking platform’s business model or policy, time of the year, etc. (like buying airplane tickets). Some platforms collect payment upfront as a ticket and take a percentage commission, while others charge us a fixed fee per person instead. Some platforms go as far as setting the price themselves, or deciding when to run sales, which is all perfectly normal in tourism. It all differs from platform to platform - but either way, what you paid was always for the guide's time and expertise. And I can assure you, all the visitors contribute to the tour, either with pre-included or on spot, again depending on where they booked. The financial contribution to the tour gives you, the visitors, value similar to visiting a fantastic museum with a live guide. We always pour our hearts into each tour we guide, Jessie is no exception, she’s amazing, thank you for kind words. Any other questions, feel free to reach out. Warm Regards, Zoe
It was a fun morning tour. Our guide Amy was so friendly and informative, and added a lot of fun side facts. We definitely would recommend this as an introduction to the city
Happy to read this! Thank you, it was a pleasure ☺️
Diana was an absolute gem of a guide. She really knew Oslo and quickly found out our interests and catered to them quite well. She offered deep insights into the attractions we saw and she was really fun. She really wanted us to see the city through her eyes and we really loved the tour and her.
Okay, let me start by saying the walking tour was great. Our guide was on time, informative and shared interesting information about the history of Oslo but also life in general in Norway. The only reason I didn’t give this a 5-star review was that we discovered only some of the people had paid for the tour. When we booked on trip advisor it cost close to US$25 per person, but we discovered it was actually a free walking tour and the majority of people in the group hadn’t paid anything. Now of course we would have given a payment at the end as a tip but the fact that the $$ amount was predetermined for some and not others was quite infuriating.
So happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour! Payments vary from booking platform to booking platform and depend on booking platform’s business model and policy. Similarly to how buying airplane tickets or booking a hotel works online. Some platforms collect payment upfront as a ticket and take a percentage commission, while others charge us a fixed fee per person instead (can be in some instances 7-8$), which allows payments on spot. Some platforms go as far as setting the price themselves, or deciding when to run sales, some allow prepaid only, and all of this is perfectly normal in tourism. Either way, what you paid in advance was for the guide's time and expertise. Hope this helps. Have a great rest of your stay in Oslo! We’re happy to have been a part of it and contributed with our stories about Oslo and Norway 😊 Thank you again for nice words! We really pour our hearts into each tour 😊
Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Oslo and could answer any questions we asked him about.
Thank you! ☺️
Our tour guide Nickola (sp) was fantastic. We learned a lot and appreciated his insight on the amazing city of Oslo. However, when we arrived and he was holding a sign that said "FREE TOUR" we learned that most people did not pay for the tour. It was explained the trip advisor charges for the free tour and then passes along part of what they charge to the tour guide as a tip. It seems pretty scammy and I would have preferred that our guide get to keep all of the tip. We paid over $22 each for 5 of us and another couple paid $16 each. I would have asked for money back but again Nickola was wonderful and well worth it. I just didn't like paying for something upfront with a 24 hour cancellation policy when others joined at zero cost!
Hi! So happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour! Payments vary from booking platform to booking platform and depend on booking platform’s business model and policy. Similarly to how buying airplane tickets works across various booking platforms. Some platforms collect payment upfront as a ticket and take a percentage commission, while others charge us a fixed fee per person instead (can be in some instances 7-8$). Some platforms go as far as setting the price themselves, or deciding when to run sales, others open for option paying on spot, and all of this is perfectly normal in tourism. Either way, what you paid in advance was for the guide's time and expertise. Nicola poured his heart into giving a wonderful morning to the group, as he always does. He really is a star - as you also noticed. We are an independent group of guides (friends) that created tour of great quality with care and love for our city. Doing this makes us genuinely happy and we know it shows in each and every tour we guide. Enjoy the rest of your stay in Oslo!
Great guide interesting knowledgeable friendly. Great overview of the city and Norwegian history, plus personal recommendations.
Amazing! This is so lovely to read! We put so much care into designing a tour that's both comfortable and truly high quality — it's incredibly rewarding to hear it hit the mark!
