    Hated beer choice on first stop Bartender would not change for a different beer even though it was a tiny glass. Small amount of lukewarm stew and sliced meat was just ok there. Went next for a tasteless cinnamon bun and hot chocolate at a tiny stop with zero atmosphere. Last stop was a waffle ( after a cinnamon bun! ). The place only had 6 seats all infested by bees. We couldn’t even stay there to eat All 6 left tour prematurely! Who wants two desserts in a row with hardly any food on a FOOD TOUR? Insane disappointment for a lot of money With that being said, Alicia was very nice. It wasn’t her fault.

  • Shaf was a great tour...

    Good tour, good food, good guide :) It's a mix of a food and walking/culture tour, in a less touristy area in Oslo. Not the cheapest, but definitely enjoyable and our guide was so patient with us asking a million questions :)
