Additional Information

This adventure is hosted by a private local guide. Each LocalBini Experience accommodates a small group size of up to 8 members.

Get to know the historical perspective of Oslo with an enthusiastic local who is eager to share all interesting historical information and fun facts about Oslo.

Our 2-hour journey begins at the innovative Oslo Opera House, and it proceeds with a convoluted walk right through the heart of Oslo! Understand how this city transformed and evolved over time. From exploring the historical Akershus Fortress to strolling the picturesque cobbled streets of Damstredet og Telthusbakken, uncover extraordinary sites that are not usually included in your average tourist itineraries.

We always perceived travelling as a prime way to gain knowledge, but having an informed Local accompanying you to offer insider tips and disclose local secrets enhances the experience!

Needless to say, if there’s something specific you’d like to learn about or any particular interest, just express it, and I’ll customize the itinerary accordingly!

Very interesting - Mireia was an excellent guide. We learnt a lot about Oslo and it’s history. As we were enjoying ourselves and asking her many questions, (which she happily answered), she extended the tour slightly to show us more of what we were interested in. I would highly recommend if you are interested in knowing more about the history of Oslo, but also she showed us where food courts and where markets will be that we could go back to later in our stay in Oslo.
