Our guide was amazing and the trip was breathtaking. If you are into WWII history, this is definitely for you. This is also great for those who want a chance to see the beautiful Oslo Fjord and take in some of the local cuisine. Our lunch was lovely as we sat right in the water. We lucked out with fanatically clear, warm weather so that made it even better. There is some mild hiking so wear good shoes for that, and layers! You never know what Oslo weather will be like. All in all, would DEFINITELY recommend!!

We took this gorgeous tour even without any info, but it was the best part of our trip! Well-Organised, fast and comfortable. Every point was perfectly organised with the help of guide, who told us facts about sights all the way, he pointed the best views for making photos, this is very important for me as tourist. All transport tickets were sent to us, we didn't have any problems. Next time in Bergen we obviously would take these tours. Recommend! Recommend! Recommend!

We can not recommend Svein highly enough! We experienced many tour guides during our time in Norway, both private tours and tours with a group of 60. Svein was by far our favorite guide. He was kind and attentive, and found fun places to take us that weren’t the same typical tourist things we had already seen. We had tours both in sedan and van and both were very comfortable. He took excellent care of us and provided lots of laughs as well as an incredible amount of interesting information. If we come back - he will be our first call!!
