4.00Our guide arrived early at our cruise ship pier and introduced himself as we walked up. He was quite knowledgeable about Oslo and willing to go anywhere we wanted. We were able to get very close to the Opera House to minimize walking time, as well as at stops at Parliament and the King’s Castle. We also went to a hilltop viewing point. Overall a very enjoyable experience. We had previously done a Retro Tour in Paris several years ago as well. I would not recommend this experience for anyone with back issues, as the Ural motorcycle doesn’t provide a smooth ride.
Exciting information,...

5.00This experience was worth its wait in gold as it is so unique. I booked this trip with the company direct as a surprise for my husband’s birthday and was not disappointed. The owners were very prompt in coming back to me with emails and various questions and this was a great way to see some of Oslo’s main sites. My husband was thrilled with this retro bike trip and I would recommend this excursion highly 😊
So fun!!

Memorable tour of Oslo

5.00Highly recommend this UNIQUE tour even though it was a soggy day:-) Jan Erik met us promptly at our hotel and took us around on a two hour adventure. We would have never been able to see all the Oslo sights doing another type of tour (such as hop in and off bus). My husband is an experienced Harley rider in the US but I am very nervous around motorcycles. I did not feel uneasy with Jan Erik and totally enjoyed myself, even with all the rain!! Thank you for the memories, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

3.00Our driver/guide was very good. It was cold and a bit uncomfortable. We had been to Oslo before, so there wasn't a lot to see but the motorcycle and side car is a fun activity, especially if you haven't done it before.
