Simon is personable and very knowledgeable about the history of the city. He shared valuable insights on how the economy, global politics and social mores of different periods have shaped Oslo. He also appreciates food and art and gave some great suggestions of places to visit.after our tour.

Very interesting

Mireia was an excellent guide. We learnt a lot about Oslo and it’s history. As we were enjoying ourselves and asking her many questions, (which she happily answered), she extended the tour slightly to show us more of what we were interested in. I would highly recommend if you are interested in knowing more about the history of Oslo, but also she showed us where food courts and where markets will be that we could go back to later in our stay in Oslo.
