Forget following a guide holding an umbrella. With us, you walk side by side with Konni, an Icelander who embodies the Viking spirit, and Mireia, an official Oslo guide who knows this city like no one else. Together, we’ll make you laugh, surprise you with myths, and bring Viking history alive.
You won’t just listen — you’ll hold Viking weapons, learn how they fought, hear about gods and daily life, and discover Oslo’s highlights through stories you’ll actually remember. We finish at the medieval ruins of Old Oslo, where the city was born.
And because we keep our groups small (max 16 people), you’ll never feel lost in the crowd. Think of it as exploring Oslo with friends — except these friends happen to know all the secrets.
