Walk with a Local in Oslo Norway

Oslo is the capital of Norway and has a population of over 673,000 people. Did you know Oslo was named the European Green Capital for 2019? This is due to the cities conservation of natural areas and decreased pollution. In fact, the government is trying to make the city centre a car-free zone. The fresh city air is a reason to visit alone.  Moreover, it’s host to modern architecture and home to a fascinating history dating back to the Viking era. As well as beautiful harbour, museums, restaurants and shopping destinations.

Whilst this is good, sometimes when travelling to restaurants, hotels, transport and attractions can blind your understanding of a town, city or country as they can be tailored to tourists. We recommend you don’t just follow the standard tourist route, whilst in Oslo. Especially if you’re visiting for a limited period of time, what better way to discover the city than with a local guide.

Why travel local?

The only way to get a true feeling of a place is to see it from a locals point of view. Whilst, it’s good to see the main tourist attractions it’s just as important to visit the native life which contributes to a countries identity. Doing this, you gain a whole new level of education through travel by listening to interesting stories and visiting local spots.

Walking with a local will allow you to be taken to unfrequented destinations visited by tourists but frequent hotspots of locals.
