“The perfect way to experience Oslo. We arrived the night before, and this Day One morning tour not only helped us get our bearings but also introduced us to the city’s rich history. Shaf, our wonderful guide, was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and able to answer every question with ease. I’d happily have him accompany us on every tour we take. He was helpful, funny, and showed us far more of Oslo than we could have imagined. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The balance and pace were absolutely spot on. The bikes were a joy and we even got to wear Viking cycle helmets (our preference of style). Who knew…”

2.Oslo Highlights Bike Tour

“Perfect way to see all Oslo’s sights. Our guide was wonderful and informative. There were a couple mildly challenging hills, one being at the palace. I had no issues (44m) and some of the others who over 65 years old handled them easily. At times, you have to weave through pedestrians and drive in active roadways, so be prepared.”

“Great time exploring Oslo, it’s always a better experience on electric bikes as you never know how hilly the route will be. This was a great mix of the culture and history of the city, we covered a large area (approx 16km) seeing many places we would never have found on foot or by choosing from the ‘Top 10 sights to see’ lists online, although we did see many of those! Carlos was very knowledgable in the history of the city, and showed many photos of times gone by of the places we stopped at, which gave context. Would thoroughly recommend for a fun few hours (our tour was approx…”
