Decipher riddles, interact with the most important attractions of the city, and unlock interesting facts and legends. An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

Walk to all the best landmarks and hidden gems, and solve challenges. Work with your team or compete against them as you learn interesting facts and create memories that you won’t forget.

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation, and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the city sightseeing game.

Start your tour at the much-photographed Oslo Central Station. Visit the Oslo Cathedral with its unknown royal use, and Egertorget will give you a taste of one of Oslo's busiest streets.

Take a photo at the Norwegian Parliament building, which stands for democracy with its grandeur, and let yourself get lost in Oslo City Hall, with its unique architecture. Visit the Nobel Peace Center which with its unique exhibits gives you the opportunity to learn about the greatest minds and discoveries that hold the prize.

You will also pass by Oslo's National Theater with its excellent acoustics and unique program. Admire the iconic Royal Palace. Uranienborg Church with its unique red color will captivate you and your camera! See, walk, and relax in Frogner Park with its countless statues.

Scavenger hunts are great as an everyday activity or for special events like bachelor or bachelorette parties, birthday parties, or team-building events.

We really enjoyed this tour! It took us to all the must-sees in Oslo. The riddles were nice and challenging, the anecdotes and trivia were interesting and we definitely got that sense of accomplishment™️. I'd love to see what they came up with for the other cities as well.

It was a fun day in Oslo for our family of four - two teenaged children - to follow the tour. The history and background information was just enough to take in and fulfill our Tourist needs. It’s nice to go at your own pace and the tour could be done in 2-3 hours or 2-3 days if you chose to go into and explore many diversions.

A very nice way to explore a city, at you own pace. The puzzles were great for my teenagers, as it did not make them feel like we were actually doing a city tour. The information was really divers in themes and interesting enough for them that we really read all of them. We will definitely do this again in other cities!
