Michal was a fun, energetic, and easy-to-talk-with guide who made our food walking tour enjoyable and memorable. We especially liked the impromptu gin and aquavit tastings, which added a spontaneous and fun touch to the experience. That said, if we tour again we will request the tour focus more on local hidden gems—small eateries where locals dine—rather than tourist-focused spots.Fun and Impromptu

We had an amazing late afternoon with Michal taking us around Bergen tasting food at 10 of his favorite spots! Starting and finishing off with some special Norwegian treats that Michael brought along added a special touch to our experience. It was as if we were touring the town with an old friend. The cuisine options were carefully picked and the food selections were delicious! Make sure not to eat before you go; it was like a 10 course omakase experience!!! 10 Tastings with Michal

We can’t say enough good things about our time with Karlis. Our tour was well thought out, and he not only helped us to get a great picture of main sites to see, but hel also gave us a lot of insight into the culture of the beautiful city of Oslo. We definitely recommend doing this tour on your first day in Oslo because Karlis will fill you in with lots of things/ideas that you can then go and do on your own. He was also extremely thoughtful and gave us tickets to use the buses, boats and rails. He explained it to us, so it was super easy to navigate around the city on our own the next two days that we were there. Thank you!!! And 100% try the Skaagen!!! Karlis tour was EXCELLENT!

We had alot of fun with variety, some nice ideas and concept , shame about the rain which then a plan B would have been better as in an alternative dry place to eat and drink It was actually expensive and we were surprised we paid for the 6 beers in the restaurant at the beginning as had understood it was food and alcoholDifferenet fun food tour

Enjoying our food tour with Karliss was like hanging out with an old friend swapping stories and tasting some amazing local food and drink. He introduced us to a wide variety of Norwegian delicacies which were always accompanied by a varied choice of beverages. Our evening was extremely well organized and we were never rushed through our meals. Over the course of our evening, Karliss shared stories about his experiences traveling the world and provided some informative information about Norwegian customs and current events. This evening was a highlight of our Oslo visit. Best food tour ever

Our tour with Karlis was so much fun! He customized it on the spot after meeting us at our hotel and finding out what we had and had not done previously. We ended up seeing places and learning about things we never expected. Highly recommend Karlis as a guide in Oslo!Great Time in Oslo!

Marcela was great company and beyond informative. We loved our tour and learned lots. Highlights were when she took us into two buildings (City Hall and the Library) that we would never have known to visit. We would have just walked by them. She wrapped our tour up perfectly by depositing us at a great lunch spot that we would never have found on our own. We do a lot of private tours and enjoyed this one as much as any we have experienced. Thank you Marcela!

Marcela met us at our hotel in Oslo, where she arrived 10 minutes before the agreed upon time. Wonderful! We had a little chat, and set our expectations on what we wanted to see, and what she really wanted us to have seen. Very nice! During the tour we received detailed information about the history of Oslo, as well as about the current situation and living standards. The friendliness, fun and joy she expresses when guiding you around, is extraordinary. We strongly recommend everyone to give it a try. It's the best way to see the city, and learn about it in a pleasant way.Almost a walking encyclopedia...

Very much enjoyed our time with Karlis. He seemed to understand us and our requirements and took us to some interesting places - ending up in a food hall (we would never have found on our own!) full of local delicacies and restaurants Great guided walk

We really enjoyed our 3 hour walk around Oslo with Marcela. It was clear that she knew the city but she also talked about the culture, living in Norway, problems and politics so we had a real insight into the city. And Marcela is delightful company. Really recommend her services. Knowledgable and charming guide

Karlis is an extremely warm and knowledgeable guide about Oslo and the food scene. He is so adaptable to what you really want to experience in food. My husband wanted to try traditional local game meats and Karlis took us to a high end food emporium for a local traditional meat experience of reindeer stew and moose burgers. He also exposed us to the local traditional spirits and plenty of local beers. Great person to talk to regarding the culture and people living in and around Oslo. Don’t expect a lot of very traditional Norwegian food because they enjoy Indian, Italian and Tacos. Highly recommend.A great way to experience Oslo

We have not used WithLocals before for booking guides etc. the process was smooth and communication with Karlis from beginning to end was excellent. Karlis was well prepared and made reservations at the various establishments we would visit. Everywhere we went was fantastic - he made excellent choices and selections for us. He’s very personable, fun to have a guide and give us tips for what to see once we departed. I’d recommend him for any guided tours your planning. Good times with Karlis!

Whoever says Norwegians are cold hasn’t met Karlis, he was right on time, came right to our hotel and brought us coffees ! He even started the tour a whole hour earlier to show us some sites around the city. He custom tailors each tour depending on what you want to eat and leaves a direct line open if you have any questions about anything Oslo after you part ways with him. He wrote down restaurants and sites for us and even brought us a tourist map. When you calculate how much the food costs and how much he has to give to the website you find that the tour is positively cheap. We spent 4+ hours with him and were sorry when we had to part ways. Highly recommend ! Spend your day with Karlis!

Karlis was a wonderful guide who exceeded my expectation for an off the beaten path tour of Oslo. We saw everything we wanted to see while is Oslo and items we didn’t expect. Karlis was a gem and certainly worth booking with as his knowledge and flexibility was priceless on our recent tour of Oslo. We would absolutely book with him again.Exploring Oslo

We appreciate so much when we get to enjoy a host like Michal! He was effectively communicative leading up to our tour and he went ABOVE and BEYOND to provide us with so much more than we expected! Some of the things we ate were genuinely some of the best foods we’ve had in our lives! My advice to his future groups, let him know if you don’t eat seafood. Fortunately, we are adventurous eaters and we love seafood, which is abundant in Norway. Anyway, thank you Michal! You’re a credit to WithLocals hosts and we can only hope our future hosts feed us as well as you did! Hope to eat and drink with you again!The Amazing Michal!
