1.00This particular tour operator could not be reached via phone by myself nor Viator on the day of my experience. Their website said that they were closed and we NEVER saw a bus!!! Have requested a full refund!!!
Wish we had tried the other company.

1.00Sparse commentary, what there was was very hard to hear and I think I was on maximum volume (and the doctor says I have excellent hearing).

5.00It was easy and great. Did one full round and then stopped at a couple of museums. Enhanced my time in Oslo, especially since it was raining.

3.00The bus was comfortable and provided us with what we needed to get around town. The hitch was at the beginning… We did not know which bus to get on as there was some confusion about the bus with white or yellow. All the buses said “hop on, hop off,” so it was very confusing and this continued at every stop. We would hop off to tour some area of Oslo, then when we went back to the bus stop, it was the same thing all over again… Which bus to get on.The second issue was with the running narrative… There was a lot of static on mine, and the earbuds do not fit in my ears. Other than that, it was perfect!

3.00May be busy periods when seats are not available such as when tour boats dock. Drivers may skip stops.
Can't recommend this tour in Oslo

1.00First off, the driver drove like a mad man! I am not quite sure what his issue was, but we did not feel safe on the first bus. Then, the recorded messages stopped working after stop 2 so we learned nothing. Very disappointing.
Not as good as expected.

3.00This wasn’t as good as other hop on hop off yours. Very hard to hear commentary. A lot of the plugs didn’t work. Buses were running very behind.
Not worth the money

1.00The audio was not continuous with large gaps of no commentary. The second level plastic curtain was hooked by the trees and kept ripping away from the supports and created issues and was dangerous. We were never told what channel to use and luckily another customer informed us. The salesman was friendly but didn’t feel the trip was worth the money
Very disappointed

1.00It was very poor. The audio did not work, the driver was not friendly and the covering on the top to keep the rain out kept blowing off. I cut my finger trying to snap the plastic back in. This was a bad experience all around.
