We did the hike last Saturday with Frank and we’re having a very good time. Good hike, good conversations and I could take as many pictures as I want. He also adapted to what we want and we made a new route according to the group wish. I like to have local guide so I can learn more about the country itself. I would definitely use his service again for another hike.Very friendly and knowledgeable! We felt very safe the whole trip and even learned about Norwegian culture. The hike went by very quickly and was a ton of fun!

Great tour by our mountains guide Gaute, Gaute was knowledgeable, friendly, spoke perfect English but most importantly he was enthusiastic and excited to tell us all about the Norwegian country side. The coffee, bread and cheese were a great touch. The day we went it was just the two of us on the tour, the tour operator is a standup business. They could of easily cancelled due to so few guests but they honored their commitment, highly recommend this tour, the highlight of our five days in Norway.Please look no further- if you're looking for small group guided hiking. I did 2 tours with the NMG and both were fantastic experiences because of the tour guide (Frank) and the amazing people I met on the tours. Never thought of myself as a hiker but I fell in love with hiking. Will be back for ...
