Here are some examples of tours of 1, 2, 3 or 4 hours duration

 2  hour tour :

For these tours we recommend that the guests have a car or a bus available for transportation.

A walk through the Vigeland sculpture park and a short photo stop at Holmenkollen are among our most popular two hour tours. The guide comes along for the whole tour, and tells about Oslo and Holmenkollen, and goes through the sculpture park in detail. Pending the weather conditions a beautiful panorama of Oslo can be experienced.

In two hours there is plenty of time to visit any two museums of your choice at Bygdøy peninsula.

It is possible to combine a visit to the City Hall or the Akershus castle or the Vigeland park with an extensive city tour taking you to Ekeberg, or Grünerløkka, and past  Oslo’s monumental buildings, like the Royal Palace and the Stortinget/Parliament building.

3 hour tour :

In three hours it is possible to enjoy a lot of what Oslo has to offer, and this is our most popular tour. The classic highlight tour is a combination of the Vigeland sculpture park, the Holmenkollen ski arena including  photo stop, and the Viking ship museum, concluding with a short tour of the city centre.

Another interesting combination is the city centre, the Vigeland sculpturepark and the Ski museum, or you can choose to see the National Gallery, the City Hall and the Vigeland  sculpturepark.

4 hour tour :

For this alternative one uses a three hour tour as a basic and then add an extra attraction. Museums that usually require some additional time are the Norwegian museum of cultural history, the Munch-museum, and the Skimuseum.

 

How about a short break from a busy day? Visit the Vigeland sculpture park and be inspired by the art and the cycle of life while enjoying the fresh air and the guided walk through the park.

In one hour it is also possible to visit a museum. The City Hall, where the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded every 10. of December is well worth a visit. In addition the popular short walk along the quays can also be included.

The Viking ship museum is possibly the most popular museum in Oslo. The guide will explain the history and way of life of the Viking era. The exhibition is unique in that the original wood of the old ships are perfectly conserved even after a thousand years!

If you get in touch with us we will of course assist you in putting together the best combination!
