Book art tour directly with museum

Carrie_W, Jun 2025
Guide had very little to say about the art- no information about specific norwegian artists or art. Guide constantly looking at phone. Guide said gay activist would try to recruit me at pride parade. Normally, I am easy to get along with and be delighted by international travel and only leave positive reviews. This was very disappointing.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

A comprehensive general tour of the National Museum and the Historical Museum was provided. The client did not request additional information about a specific artist, otherwise more detailed information would have been provided on site. After the tour an evidence was received that she recorded guiding (without asking a permission, which is illegal).

Enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide!

Ellen_G, Dec 2023
Our guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. However, we would have liked the museum portion of the tour to include the National Museum.

A real professional

Very thorough overview of beautiful museums and art collections in Oslo, Tanya was very conscientious and took a lot of time to show us everything.

Un día COMPLETO!

YOLANDA_S, Jul 2023
Fue un día más que aprovechado, Tanya nos espero en el Horel Continental, ella se puso en contacto con nosotros y nos dio las instrucciones exactas para llegar Escogimos conocer la Isla de los Museos. En realidad no es Isla pero fuimos en barquito, visitamos Kon-tiki después el Fram Museum y por último alcanzamos a visitar el Folk Museum. De la mano de Tanya conocedora de datos interesantes, atajos importantes y excelente disposición disfrutamos y aprovechamos la bella ciudad de Oslo
