Hello travelers! I'm Diana, your Local Oslo Guide, and I would be happy to show you my city. I have been working as a tour guide in Norway and Oslo for over 16 years. I hold a professional degree in tourism and a master's degree in international business. I am a also an Authorized Oslo Guide, and a Certified guide in The National Museum, offering tours in English and Spanish. I am also a pioneer guide in Virtual Tours in Oslo since 2020. Most of the time I have been guiding different tour activities in Oslo. I have spent a good chunk of my life traveling extensively. Apart from my innate passion for travel and tourism, I also highlights my time in certain countries, where I have stayed put for longer periods of time, including Australia, various South American countries, and of course Norway. I get a thrill from showing guests around Norway and I really enjoy getting to know people through their culture, traditions, art, and food. Oslo has changed a lot in recent years and is now one of Europe’s fastest-growing capitals. New places like the Munch Museum and the National Museum show how the city keeps evolving, together with people moving here from all over Norway and abroad. What I love most about Oslo is the balance between city life and nature. You’re in a modern capital, but forests, lakes, rivers, and the fjord are always close by. Let me know your interests and I can customized any tour in Oslo or in the surrounding areas of the city. I will help you discover places off the beaten track. I will also show you some hidden corners in Oslo and fun stories about the city and the locals. Last but not least, I love to take photos of nature, architecture, different seasons and sunsets. All the photos from my published tours are taken by me. I have my own Instagram gallery for showcasing Oslo and Norway for all my followers and clients. I will be happy to take you photos in my favorite spots in the city. Welcome to Oslo! Master of International Business, The University of Sydney - Australia. Bachelors in Administration and Tourism, SEK University - Chile. Authorized Oslo Guide - English, Spanish and Norwegian. Spanish Teacher at a high school level and at The University of Oslo. Certified for guiding in The National Museum in Oslo. Pioneer in Virtual Tours in Oslo with Amazon Explorer. Professional Photographer Certification. I'm an Authorized Oslo Guide and can guide in all museums in Oslo. My tours are either by public transportation, walking, or we can hire a car with driver. It is also possible to use a taxi and that must be paid on the spot. I can arrange longer tours outside Oslo such as in Drøbak, Kistefoss park, Hadeland glassverk or Telemark.

Overview of your Oslo tour

Join me for a 1.5-hour guided journey through the inner Oslofjord aboard an award-winning electric catamaran. See Oslo, its islands and summer houses from a completely different perspective. We will pass historic landmarks and colourful wooden summer houses along the way. One of my favourite things about seeing Oslo from the water is getting a glimpse of local life along the fjord. I’ll share stories about the summer houses and the important role the sea has played in Norwegian culture. The tour includes a walking tour, the best way to experience Oslo up close. Together, let’s discover the Fjord City as we walk along the harbour and scenic waterfront. We’ll explore the modern Bjørvika district, home to the Opera House, MUNCH and the Deichman Library, before heading through the historic Renaissance quarter to Akershus Fortress and the main street. There will also be time to stop at a coffee shop and enjoy some typical Norwegian food.

Diana was a fantastic guide who not only lives in Oslo but loves the history of this city. She gave an excellent and fun tour of Oslo and tips only a local who utilizes the city would know! We loved the fiord boat tour on a catamaran and it was fun meeting the captain! My kids know think Oslo may be their favorite Scandinavian city to visit!

We can’t wait to come back to Oslo and stay a few days! Diana was a great guide, full of energy and a joy to walk through the city with. She has so much knowledge of the city and the history of the sections and the buildings. The harbor tour was great too, just being able to see it from so many angles. The walking tour was perfect for our group, I would recommend this tour, and be sure to use Diana as your guide!!
