Explore Oslo with a passionate, independent guide.

Why choose this tour?
As an independent guide, I have created my own tours, driven by my passion for Oslo’s rich culture and history. After years of designing itineraries/scripts for other companies, I have created 'Oslo By Heart' tours to offer a more personal, authentic experience. Unlike the generic tours provided by companies that subcontract local guides, Oslo By Heart tours are thoughtfully crafted and full of personal insights and stories.
Oslo By Heart just launched on Viator/Tripadvisor, so reviews are few, but I am highest rated on other booking platforms (google me).
My average tour group is 2-4 people.
Suitable for:
* Solo Travellers
* Couples
* Groups
* Photo takers
* If you want to see as much as possible in a short time
* Anyone who wants a unique, personal experience with a focus on culture and history
Additional Info

Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Bring comfortable shoes and weather appropriate clothing
We will be 95% on asphalt, but there is one short gravel path and one short stretch with cobble stones at the fortress
If you book the optional Vigeland Park extension, the park can be muddy if it has been raining, so bring appropriate footwear. In the winter, Vigeland Park is sometimes too icy for a comfortable visit. I can possibly give you spikes for your shoes, contact me in advance if you are unsure of the conditions.
Customers need to be able to walk at a reasonable speed

5.00The tour was fantastic. Romy was very knowledgeable and had an easy communication style. We did the added extra tour of Vigeland park and this made the tour exceptional. Romy's insights into the sculptures helped you think deeply about them.
