Sweet hours in Tromsö

5.00A two and a half hour tour through Tromsö provided us with a good overview of the cities temptations and points of interest. We entered locations we never would have found, got informations about local women and men from the past and present who are not as famous as Roald Amundsen. Stepping in small Cafés and bakeries for some sweet tastes of Tromsö. Additionally, we got plenty information personalized to our interests. In total a sweet, interesting and informative highly recommended tour. Thanks a lot for your time and all the information, Oda. BR Ferdinand

5.00Highly recommend this tour. Gavin was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about Tromso and gave lots of interesting facts. The cafes and cakes were incredible, in particular the final cafe which is tucked away in a location you would completely miss without the tour. Gavin also took some nice photos of me and my wife.

5.00This tour was amazing! I learned cool facts about Tromsø and got to taste lots of delicious sweets. The cake stop was my favorite - without Oda, I would’ve never found that hidden gem. The cake was incredible! Thanks so much for the sweet adventure!
Great way to learn about Tromso, while enjoying a gentle walk around the lovely City.

5.00Very informative, interesting tour of Tromso - history, culture, recommendations for local businesses - coffee shops, etc. Oda is obviously passionate about her home town. Her approach was friendly, flexible, happy to answer questions. Coffee stops - local businesses run by local families. Well worth going.
