I’m known for my friendly nature and knack for making every moment enjoyable, whether it’s strolling along the waterfront or uncovering hidden gems in Oslo’s coolest neighborhoods. Oslo’s charm lies in its diversity—stunning seaside views, lush parks, striking architecture, and incredible restaurants that cater to every palate.

With me, you’ll dive into Oslo’s rich history, soak up its vibrant culture, and uncover the cool spots that make it truly special. Whether it’s a peaceful walk, a cultural dive, or a foodie adventure, I’m here to make your Oslo visit unforgettable

Marianne was outstanding. Great humor, smiled the whole time. She provided an intimate look into Oslo complete with local insider knowledge. We ate dinner at one of her recommended places and it was amazing!

Marianne, our guide, has customized the walk based on our interests and showed us the city from an unconventional angles. Her subtle sense of humor was a nice touch. Her recommendations for not so touristy places to eat and drink like locals were also excellent. Thank you!
