The tour starts in front of Pirbadet. It continues to a modern part of the city called Solsiden where many locals spend their free time enjoying themselves outside the cafés and restaurants. We proceed along the river Nid and the colorful warehouses. After that we head to one of the oldest areas of the town – Bakklandet – which has managed to preserve its charming wooden architecture. In Bakklandet is where you also find the world's only bicycle lift. We leave Bakklandet behind crossing over the famous old town bridge with "The Portal of Happiness". Then we arrive at Nidaros Cathedral, Norway's national monument. Nidaros Cathedral is built over the tomb of St. Olav, Norway's patron saint. We carry on to the Market Square (Torget). Here, the Viking King Olav Tryggvason, the city's founder, is enthroned above the vibrant square in the shape of a statue. Our next stop is Stiftsgården, the royal residence, and passing Britannia Hotel before heading back to the harbour.

Fantastic tour

5.00Vanessa our tour guide was absolutely first rate. Tronheim is a very interesting and walkable city with a rich history. Given this, it makes alot of sense to take this sort of tour with a knowledgeable guide who lives and works in the city. We would highly recommend this particular tour as it was excellent. Thank you Vanessa and it was lovely to meet you.
Great tour with Lana!

5.00Lana was wonderful! We ended up being the only 2 people on the tour today so it felt incredibly personal. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. Appreciate your time, Lana!

5.00A wonderful tour guide who is very passionate and knowledgeable about Trondheim and we had a great experience. Thank you to Toreill.
At least we saw some of Trondheim

3.00A walk through Trondheim that likely explored areas we would never have gotten to on our own. However the tour was just average. Unless you stood next to the guide, and kept up with him when walking about, your wouldn't know what he was saying. No audio and no flag to see where he was. He didn't wait for all of us to catch up before talking. I finally gave up and no longer tried. Can't say I'd recommend.
Great experience

5.00We had a wonderful walking tour of Trondheim with Paulo! He was a wealth on knowledge and showed us the best the city has to offer on a beautiful summer day. We felt more confident walking around town on our own for the rest of our stay.

5.00Nice walking tour of Trondheim, leisurely pace, plenty of information to absorb and lots of pictures to take. Trondheim is a very walkable town.
Do not book.

1.00The guide Gale didn’t have an in-depth knowledge on the area that he was guiding. A clear example of this was he took us to a statue in the middle of town, and when asked what the name of the person was, he said “I’m sorry I can’t remember, it’s a Norwegian name.” The guide was from France. Gabe lacked direction and confidence, and there were many, many awkward silences. Gabe knew a small script with each stop, but struggled to provide information or answers outside of this. He labelled the cathedral as the burial place of the wrong king. His presentation I.e. wearing an old Star Wars tshirt further added to the lack of professionalism in this company. I have probably done 20 walking tours across the world, and unfortunately this one was the most lacking and disappointing. We left the tour early, and immediately contacted the tour company and they were very apologetic at first, then they became distant and unprofessional and sadly refused a refund.
