    Not worth the money

    David_C, Aug 2026
    We booked this because we arrived in Oslo too late for a live tour. We found the starting point but the sound kept breaking up making it difficult to hear the commentary. We followed the directions as described but it kept telling us we were on wrong route. Then suddenly would change to say we were on the correct path which had us going round in circles at times. The tour was quite short covering a very small distance and taking under an hour - we had purchased full day assuming it would be much longer. On the plus side it did take us to a part of Oslo that we might have missed in the short time we had there, and the commentator had a nice Norwegian accent which we enjoyed when the sound was working.
