The trip starts outside Oslo Visitor Centre at Jernbanetorget in Oslo city centre. We will then take the Vy train to Snippen station. This is a great train ride! We hike up to a tall hill where some simple climbing is required. The view from this hill is out of this world! You will see most of Oslo, the Oslofjord and a large part of Oslo´s surroundings. We will then stroll down to the great lake Maridalsvannet and end our trip where we started at Jernbanetorget.

Inclusions: English Speaking Tour Guide, Public Transport Ticket

I booked a day hike with Oslo Hiking through the magical Krokskogen. The trip is 25 kilometers long and can be experienced as somewhat demanding, but in return, you get an absolutely spectacular view from Gyrihaugen, going through deep ravines to the Mørkgonga and many other beautiful gems. The tour was guided by Mustafa who has both education and many years of experience as a tour guide, both from the Norwegian mountains and the Atlas mountains.

This tour includes a trip by express boat on the Sognefjord and train journeys through spectacular nature on the famous Flåm Railway and the Bergen Railway.

We took this gorgeous tour even without any info, but it was the best part of our trip! Well-Organised, fast and comfortable. Every point was perfectly organised with the help of guide, who told us facts about sights all the way, he pointed the best views for making photos, this is very important for me as tourist. All transport tickets were sent to us, we didn't have any problems. Next time in Bergen we obviously would take these tours. Recommend! Recommend! Recommend!

Unforgettable experience! recommend it to everyone. Our guide (Frode) is a very friendly man with great knowledge of Viking and Norwegian history. Our guide always reassured us by saying exactly what would happen during the course. Also, we always left the luggage inside the car of our guide (so we didn't need care about it). All the times that we did the train ride, and arrived in a train station, our guide was there waiting for us. He always reported us what would happen in the next track and when arrived again at the end of this course, he was there waiting again. Always at the exact time marked. Almost at the end of our tour, the weather was changing rapidly and so as not to risk being stopped at the train station for 5 hours, our guide drove 400 km with his own car to our hotel in Oslo. making a great effort to always make us comfortable. in summary: I recommend 100% for everyone. perfect trip with the perfect guide.

I booked a this tour from EuroRail and it was scheduled for 9/7/20. I paid €633 euro .. and NO one will help me. Euro Railways: Booking Confirmation # 1172ZM - Order # 6583897 - ETICKET PRINT AT HOME. It states on its terms & Conditions that it will refund all monies if government actions prevent it from happening. As AUS was in lockdown so was Norway. Please be responsible and refund my $900 AUD that we paid before Covid interrupted the world . Norway in a Nutshell was the advertised tour via train travel from Oslo to Bergen
