Kudos to our tour guide Louai for being more than a travel guide but giving insights to the Norwegian lifestyle, Scandinavian geo dynamics. Would highly recommend him for any future Viator tours in the region. On a personal note Louai went out of his way to bring back our back pack which we happened to leave behind. Louai is indeed a true Norwegian ambassador to his clientele coming from all over the world. Thankyou for the wonderful memories we take break with us of this experience.”
