Awesome Way to Tour Oslo - We loved our Oslo Hidden Gems and Food Tour with Idunn. She was friendly, approachable, funny and just lovely. Besides that she was knowledgeable and we learned so many interesting things about the city. It was lots of walking which we enjoyed and were able to get a feel for the city - even in cold winter weather. The fish soup was abslutely delicious, the lunch gave us a taste of a good variety of fresh Norwegian food, and the waffle and brown cheese was the perfect warm ending for a wonderful tour. Thank you Idunn and Oslo Nature! Paige & Dave Kerr

Oslo food and fun! - We had a fun, entertaining and worthwhile experience with our guide, Annie. The tour was just the right blend of eating and walking. The food choices were delicious, and portion sizes were plenty for us to enjoy while not overstuffing us. We trekked through interesting neighborhoods, old, artsy, and beautiful. Annie was an engaging storyteller of Oslo lore.

Fun and informative - Our family loved the experience. Annie took us to places that we would never have discovered otherwise. Bring water with you and wear comfy walking shoes as there will be some incline hills. It was the perfect number of people, and Annie is very engaging, easy to chat with and knows a lot about her food. As we went in winter during Christmas holiday, we had our lunch sitting around fire pit grilling sausages looking over the fjord. Lovely experience all in all.

Great food with a lot of city highlights and history - The entire tour was very good. We traveled to unique parts of the city and learned quite a bit about these areas. The food was quite delicious, however I was a bit disappointed that we only had three places to eat.

Good tour - Having done a few tours I would have appreciated a bit more about the food culture of Noway. That said it was a good tour. Knowledgeable and lovely guide and great food stops
