Great tour for cruise passengers who want to get away from the crowds

Did an awesome tour with Petter. He was knowledgeable, interesting, engaging and informative. Great tour for cruise passengers who need to see some nature and get away from the crowds. It’s a serene walk through the forest with some spectacular views of Oslo. Recommend going to the top of the ski jump to see the most amazing views. Caution - the walk is physically demanding and should only be done by people who can handle the 5-6 mile walk.

Great

Excellent experience Mustafa is a great guide explaining many things during the walk. Adapting his rhythm to the group or the person if so needed. Talking and yet being discret if needed.

Operator response

Thank you Alexandros! It was our pleasure hiking with you.

Highly recommended easy walk with stunning views

Everything was perfect. The company was super helpful and adjusted the start time specially to suit us. Our guide Mustafa was a really interesting person to talk to and gave us information about the features of our walk - plants, buildings, views. The train journey up to the area is scenic, and the walk itself is easy. We had lovely weather and there were locals roller-skiing and hiking everywhere - we felt like we were doing what local people would do on a Sunday morning.

Operator response

Thank you for such a nice and detailed feedback Carolyn! We are so happy you had a good time 🌿
