Amazing tour despite the weather!
Top Notch Tour. When the weather didn't cooperate, the tour company gave us the option to cancel. We had no other available time so we said let's make the best of it. Despite not being able to see some of the main attractions (i.e., the views at high elevations), Phillip met us with a couple of hot beverages to battle the cold weather and we had a great talk about what we should go see. Phillip knows so many stories about the park and its history, we learned a ton and enjoyed every minute of it, while getting snowed on! The tour company was worried that we would be disappointed, but the scenery in this park covered with a layer of snow was amazing! We saw waterfalls, historic old cabins, a river that's scenic at every turn, wildlife, and heard stories of the people that called this park home so many years ago (and even relatively recently!) This was one of the best tours I have ever taken. The tour company was so caring and didn't want to disappoint, warmed us up, fed us snacks, and stuck with us for several hours to give us a tour we won't forget! Thanks Phillip and Clayton! You're the best!

Best experience EVER!!!
This was my very first time zip lining!!! I had an AMAZING time, the group was friendly everyone was cheering for the next person. Grace, Slick and I can't remember the other ladies name but they made it so stress-free. They were AWESOME can't wait to do it again!!!

Reliable Viator
On a recent short trip to Oslo with a group of eight friends, I suggested we book a few of the services offered by Viator. We went on a coach tour for five and a half hours on day one. The second day we went on a boat tour for two plus hours in the morning and visited the virtual reality Viking museum in the afternoon. All three experiences were truly great. My friends and I were delighted with the level of knowledge the tour guide on the coach had, she was marvellous. A great way to see and experience Oslo, I highly recommend using Viator and will gladly use them again.

Great pace, very...
Great pace, very informative and conversational in tone so it did not feel like you were at a lecture. The group was large but the guide managed to keep us all together and we were all able to hear her well. It’s a great way to get a good lay of the land when first arriving in Oslo.

Easy Peasey!
Kendil was so knowledgeable and has lived in the area most of her life and hiked all over the area even to the tops of many of the high points we saw on the tour. Told us about the history and the fire. We stood on the state line of Tennessee and North Carolina. Had time to read all the signs and see the place where Rockfellar and FDR dedicated the park in 1934.
The 1.30pm tour on Sunday was not very crowded and had little traffic. It was a beautiful clear fall day and we could see for miles! My only regret was not having an extra hour to hike up Kuwohi, the highest point to view all seven states.
Kendrick even dropped us off in town and gave us recommendations on where to eat for dinner and how to get back to the Visitor center on the FREE Gatlinburg Trolley. It was a wonderful trip!!!

Informative fun tour
Good way to go about Oslo on your first trek. Learned a lot about the city, thw country and it's history. Oslo is big and spread out. You can always go back to specific places to have a more intimate experience. Well organized. Did bus and boat combo.

Great tour!
We had such a a good time on our hike. China is a fantastic guide! She is such an enjoyable person and shared a ton of interesting info. We saw several gorgeous waterfalls and fall colors. Even on a day when the weather was "moody," we couldn't have spent our time better.

A great overview of oslo in a day!
A very nice overview of Oslo! We visited many of the hot spots and a few off the beaten path and learned a lot along the way. Sheenam was very knowledgeable and took the time to share with us what life in Oslo is like. We also loved that she is a wonderful photographer.

Great way to tour Oslo - one of the friendliest cities for bikers
The Oslo bike tour is a great way to see the highlights of the city and is very friendly for bikers. Our guide, Becca, was five stars and loved sharing the past and present history of Norway. I highly recommend this tour. It's also a great way to get rid of sea legs if you've been on a cruise ship.

Great, safe and exciting tour
The motorcycle ride with sidecar was great. Janik was our driver, we enjoyed him and all the information about the area that he shared. I rode behind him on the motorcycle and my husband rode in the sidecar. It was so much fun and we highly recommend this exciting tour for an introduction of the Oslo highlights.

Excellent informative Oslo walking tour
The walking tour was excellent. Lots of history and information about Oslo and Norway was given. The walking was easy enough without many hills or stairs. Our guide Olav was funny and entertaining while also being very knowledgeable. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Oslo surrounding sights and Fjord
Pros
A highlight for myself was the Vigiland sculpture park. I thought this would probably be a number of sculptures spread across a parkland. I didn't expect 200 plus sculptures that told a story of life from birth to death.
Our guide Christian was extremely enthusiastic and committed to telling the story of the places we visited.
The boat ride on the fjord was beautiful and relaxing.
Cons
Poor weather and low cloud out of Oslo meant scenery was obscured. Not much can be done about that.
I wasn't able to make the Wi-Fi tour information to play on my phone.
