My reviews

Marianne was absolutely fabulous. I gave her a list of what we wanted to see and she planned an amazing day for us. We enjoyed the stories and facts she gave us. The only better would have been if our schedule had allowed a different day since most museums are closed Sundays and Mondays. But, not her fault.

Marianne was an excellent guide and this was the perfect experience to have when I had limited time but still wanted to see Oslo. She was very thorough and had lots of fun history facts to share, and information I would have probable never found out otherwise. I am very grateful for this experience!
