I am a dedicated Oslo guide, born and grown up in Oslo where I have lived all my life and have been working here as a guide since 2017. I have lived in almost all parts of Oslo, representing the large diversity of social and economic living conditions. I have had a variety of occupations in this city and therefore know how the city looks like from different perspectives. It was therefore quite natural for me to become an Oslo guide, a city I am proud of and would love to present to visitors. I offer some planned tours, but these could be adjusted based on your preferences, and I may also offer fully customized tours. I have as well been working several years as a tour leader in Norway and Scandinavia, and I can therefore offer customized tours from Oslo to different regions in Norway. Oslo can offer a unique combination of historical and cultural attractions of a large city, a variety of good restaurants, and beautiful surroundings. Situated at the end of a long fjord and surrounded by hills and a large forest, and with its many parks, it can offer a variety of opportunities for boat trips, hiking, biking, swimming, fishing and for skiing in the winter time. After visiting museums or other attractions in the city, a 25 minutes tour with the metro takes you to the forest where you can walk or bike for many miles and have a swim. You can even have a sauna and a swim at a beach in the inner city close to the Opera house if you want; the water is clean!

International artists as well as a park visualizing a national epic of Norway
Overview of your Oslo tour
There are three main sculpture parks in Oslo; The Vigeland Sculpture Park, The Ekeberg Sculpture Park, and The Peer Gynt Sculpture Park. The Vigeland Sculpture Park is quite famous, but much fewer people visit the other two parks even if they have a lot of fascinating art to offer. In a half-day tour only two of these parks are possible to include. Another combination of two of the three parks could be negotiated. The Ekeberg Sculpture Park contains 47 sculptures made by 43 artists, many of them quite famous; Rodin, Renoir, Dali, Vigeland, and Henry. The sculptures are scattered along a pathway in a park on the top of a hill located above the city. The Peer Gynt Sculpture Park contains 20 sculptures made by different Norwegian as well as international artists. The sculptures are inspired by the play Peer Gynt written by the playwright Henrik Ibsen who is one of the most famous playwrights internationally, second only to Shakespeare. The play Peer Gynt is perceived as being the main national epic of Norway.
Your Oslo tour itinerary
