Maryann was lovely to spend a say with - the conversation was easy and free flowing

A fantastic tour mostly off the beaten path with so much history. An amazing 3 hours.

Marianne, our guide, has customized the walk based on our interests and showed us the city from an unconventional angles. Her subtle sense of humor was a nice touch. Her recommendations for not so touristy places to eat and drink like locals were also excellent. Thank you!

This tour was great! We only had one day in Oslo and this tour helped us fit in all the highlights. Neil was a great guide, we would highly recommend this tour.

Our City Unscripted host, Marianne, was wonderful and gave us a great sense of Oslo culture and history on our first day in the city. The information we learned helped us plan out remaining days in the city. I definitely recommend City Unscripted!!
