Waste of time, money, and energy!!

Deborah_B, Jul 2023
We were asked to reschedule our time for this tour which was okay. However, our guide rushed in several minutes late, stating “just in time”. It only got worse from there. No schedule or itinerary. ‘What do you want to see?” How should I know. I am the visitor. I told her “this is hidden gems of Oslo”. We walked to the Opera House. She pointed out “look, there is an apartment building”; “look, there is a restaurant”; I was pointed out more dogs …Tanya Lisa was the worst guide I have experienced on this trip. Unfocused. Very little historical information. We walked to the Univ of Oslo. She said it was closed but I saw people going in. I asked if that wasn’t where the Munch painting was. We made it in with 9 minutes to spare before it closed. My granddaughter and husband left after an hour of her babbling. I stuck with it for another two hours but quit This tour us a waste of time, energy, and money. DO NOT USE THIS TOUR!!

Response from Host, Jul 2023

We went to the City Hall, Munch museum, new Library and also other historical places, as usual. Then the Client said she was "out of steam" and went back to the hotel. I did not expect such a bad and rude review - very strange. I am very upset about it. Her expectations were obviously different. Sorry

One day in Oslo

We were able to see parts of the city you could only see by walking. Favorite part was the sculptor garden.

Very enjoyable day.
