Hi, I’m Neil, your local host in Oslo who loves sharing the charm of this modern city surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. What I appreciate most about Oslo is its relaxed pace and walkable scale—everything feels close, whether it’s the vibrant city center or the tranquil forests and lakes that surround it. You’ll often find me exploring Oslo’s fantastic galleries and museums or venturing into nature for a hike or a peaceful moment by the water. I also enjoy spending time on the Oslo islands, a hidden gem for anyone looking to experience the city from a different perspective. Whether you’re curious about life in Oslo, looking for fun on a budget, or planning a special celebration, I’m here to help you discover what makes this city such an incredible place to live and visit. Let’s explore Oslo together at your own pace!
Neil gave us a nice overview of Oslo in the short time we had available. We asked for a focus on history, and he delivered! He also took the time to help us figure out the transit system. A terrific experience.

We didn’t know how long we should book our private tour for as we are not huge history buffs. So we booked for two hours and Neil was our guide. We asked him to plan our day. He was fabulous! Although a Brit, he clearly loves Oslo and Norway. He was so fun and interesting and shared many stories about his country. He took us to the highlights around the city and gave full explanations about the architecture and buildings and statues throughout the city. We definitely would recommend Neil and City Unscripted for this tour. I also spoke on the phone and thru email with their customer support on meeting locations and they were excellent as well. Two hours was enough for us as we are seniors and this is a walking tour.

Neil was very personable and adapted the tour to meet our needs. He was very easy going, but was diligent about showing us as much of the historical sites as time allowed. I would highly recommend Neil as a guide.
