Fun tour!

I loved being outside on a bike learning about Norway. Our guide, Nev, was intelligent and well spoken. I learned a lot! The snow was easy to manage. And, it didn't feel overly cold.

Fun 9km bike tour of Oslo from 700 years ago to present day

We had 2days in Oslo after our trip to Svalbard. I loved the idea of a bike tour but wasn’t sure what to expect given the snow and ice. The meeting point is in a warehouse right next to the DFDS ferry, the signage could be clearer but Josh our guide was visible and waiting for us , was just me and my wife so we ended up with a private tour. Josh , originally from Florida but had been living in Oslo for 11 years was superb with regular stops and super informative he really knew his facts and history and our 3 hour tour flew by. So many fun facts and the city hall home of the Nobel prize presentation was a big bonus. The bikes were perfectly suited to the conditions and the winter tyres with studs gripped very well. We loved Oslo and the 9km tour was fun and Josh was so enthusiastic and interesting , he really sold Norway and made us want to come back again , wonderful country , would highly recommend this tour, suitable for all ages

Thank you so much for the detailed and generous review. Josh has been guiding with Viking Biking & Hiking since 2014, and is now our lead tour guide. So you ended up with an amazing guide who blends experience with an on-going passion for what he does. And I know Josh loves winter tours, with smaller groups which allow him to personalize the tour. I am so glad the experience was positive for you.

Great way to see and learn about Oslo

Josh was an amazing tour guide! It was a fun way to start our time in Oslo. Josh was very knowledgeable about the history of Oslo and gave great recommendations for the rest of our stay.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thank you for the great review, and I will let Josh know how much you enjoyed his tour. He is Viking Biking & Hiking's lead tour guide, with nearly 1000 tours under his belt! He makes sure all of his customers leave happy, often with personalized recommendations on what to see, where to eat and how to get around Oslo.

Excellent tour guide

Josh made the trip so much interesting and memorable. Went around the river bank and many important city hotspots. Stopped over at food market to warm up and have hot coffee. Anyone visiting Oslo, this tour is highly recommended with guide Josh.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Hi Amit! So great to hear from you and thank you for joining me on an amazing winter bike tour around Oslo! I had a blast showing you some of my favorite local, off the beaten path spots on our Authentic Oslo route! The rooftop of the Opera House, the water falls along the river (just to name a few) - and of course the hot coffee break at the indoor Food Market was a great mid tour chance to warm up and sample some local brown cheese. It really was nice to get to know you! I wish you a fantastic journey forward with Northern Lights and more good times along the way! Hope to see you and your family back here in Oslo again. Always welcome! - Josh

Great way to explore Oslo

Thank you for the 5-star review, and for taking our Winter bike tour. It can be cold, but in true Viking fashion, it is good to get out in any type of weather!

Stunning and informative

The visit to the sculpture garden was stunning, amazing—such a wonderful surprise. Curtis was a great host and I really appreciated the coffee/pastry stop!

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Hi Lori, Thanks for braving the cold of our winter bike tour, and for taking the time to leave such a nice review. One of Oslo's best cinnamon buns is sure to warm up during the tour and glad you enjoyed that stop. Me too, yum yum! Best regards, Curtis

Great!

Josh was great! Such a fun tour on bikes in Oslo, seeing all the main sights and getting some local recommendations. Definitely do this tour!!! (Only thing to note is that I found the experience cheaper on another provider after booking - ‘get your guide’ - so maybe book there!)

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Thank you for the nice review and I will let Josh know you enjoyed the tour. Please note that our prices are the same on all platforms as our booking engine is integrated with re-sellers like Viator or GetYourGuide. It is just sometimes a question of exchange rates, how the different sites present the prices (showing the cheaper child prices first), etc. So no matter where you book, the prices should be nearly identical after accounting for exchange rates.

Absolutely Fabulous Tour!

Great way to start discovering Oslo, highly recommended. You see the most important places you need to see in a short time frame but are never under stress! Josh is a great guide I would highly recommend him!
