Taste Norwegian favorites, explore Grünerløkka, and find quieter Oslo corners on this small-group food and city walk.
“We loved our tour with Eden! It really fits the description - tucked away treats and history in Oslo that you would never stumble upon otherwise, and while still in Oslo it was nice to have a few quieter hours away from the hustle and bustle of the city center. We had excellent food and felt the walking amount was very reasonable. Key to know that the tour ends about 25-30 minute walk from where it starts, so either just prepare for that ahead of time or plan to catch the tram back into town! Would definitely recommend to friends and family!”

A small glitch was that there was not much communication before the tour started so there was some confusion about where we should meet. In the end, it all worked out well and we enjoyed our tour. Highly recommend!”
