Review of Oslo’s Grand E-bike Experience, covering Vigeland Park, the Royal Palace, Grünerløkka, the fjord, practical tips, and value.
“Our guide, Lisa, did an excellent job taking us to some interesting sites around Oslo. Our group size was 7 adults. That was nice for being able to stay together. The highlight was the time spent at Vigeland Gardens. The bikes were in good repair and the electric power option was MUCH appreciated. We got to see a lot more of the city in the allotted time. Total time out and about was approximately 2 hrs and 15 minutes. Overall, a very worthwhile experience.”

David also did a great job of taking photos for everyone vs selfies! the rude down was a breeze!”

Considerate , friendly and a genuine nice guy. Thank you for your time and good luck for the remainder of the season.”
Ride Voss forest trails with quality bikes, local guides, flexible routes, and beautiful scenery on this active 2.5-hour Norway tour.
“I had a great experience, mainly because of my guide Mohan, who was really great with me. The weather was bad, and the trails were super wet, muddy and slippery. On top of that I couldn’t get used to the brakes being on the opposite sides of handle bar. So, for me, it was literally ‘try not to fall’ as opposed to ‘shredding the trail’. Mohan did an awesome job of showing me the trails, giving me tips and letting me know in advance if there is a gnarly section ahead. I highly recommend him.”

“My husband and I really enjoyed this excursion. He is a well seasoned rider, and me, well not so much! I was unnecessarily worried about my skill level as the ride is an easy coast down hill, and the traffic is very accommodating to riders. The views coming down the mountain were spectacular, and doing the unguided tour gave us time to stop along the way to explore side trails and take lots of pictures. I would 100% recommend this tour.”

They can provide enough bags to fit even big amount of luggage and also have an option of leaving the luggage in the shop for the period of renting. Highly recommend”

The equipment should have been better taken care of and prepared by the company, thankfully Mikkel helped a great deal in making the best of it. We had a great day, thanks Mikkel!”
