Things to do in  Oslo

I am so glad to have gone on this trip. It was a great way to see Oslo from the water. And to see the coastline and beautiful traditional small (and larger!) cottages by the shore. Stopping off for the museums and being picked up again later was fun. The crew on board made us so welcome. Thankyou again.

Great way to start discovering Oslo, highly recommended. You see the most important places you need to see in a short time frame but are never under stress! Josh is a great guide I would highly recommend him!

Overall, I enjoyed the cruise. I was able to see Oslo fjord & other sightseeing places from the cruise ship.

It was great to see Oslo from the water and get a little history of the city. The boat ride was very pleasant and calming. It was quite chilly once we got going, but they had warm blankets to keep you warm.

The pick up location was right outside the cruise port building, so get tickets ahead so as not to wait in the queue for same-day purchase. The stops were in great locations to the main tourist attractions (we went to the Viking Museum and Vigeland Park) so having this option available to us made our day in Oslo wonderful.

Very enjoyable cruise trip. It was interesting to see the Oslo Fjord and the little islands surrounding the city. There was a bar onboard the boat with hot drinks and snacks available to purchase, which was really handy because it was very cold. You'll definitely need to wrap up warm on this one!

Oslo is a beautiful city and touring by bike was a fun and easy way to see the sights. Great food stop along the way, and our guide Lena was so friendly and informative. Only one tough, short hill on the ride, but I made it to the top without walking! Which she said had never been done, but I think she was just kidding me!

Great way to see the city certainly a different experience for me. I would recommend this for Oslo, as it's not really that big of a city. And since cyclists reign supreme on the streets here, I felt very safe.

The best decision to visit this city. The Vigeland park is a must, We had one of the 65 days a year of sunshine and excellent weather of Oslo. Perfect! Beautiful city and do not miss the waterfront boardwalk.

This is without doubt the best way to see the sights of Oslo or any other city in fact. Our guide Patrick from Viking Biking was great and even in the pouring rain we had a truly memorable day.

Great. We spent almost all good attractions in Oslo by joining this hop-on hop off tour. Excellent way to see the city for the first timers.

Interesting spots we would have surely missed otherwise. We went back by ourselves to a few of them in the following days. It enabled us to see how Norwegians live in Oslo, not just tourists.

This is a good tour to do if you are in Oslo for a short space of time. You get to visit all the major attractions with the comfort of a coach. The tour guide was also good at explaining all the historical symbolism in Vigeland park.

Lovely way to see Oslo from a different perspective. Defintely a must. The tour took place on the Chistiania, a wooden old looking sail ship, even though it ran on engines all the time. You have a bar on board and get to see lovely views of the islands around. A must see in Oslo!

the guides were enthusiastic and clearly enjoyed what they were doing. The food and drink experience was really excellent. Beer tasting, Aquavit tasting and good quality meal. Interesting to see Oslo using trams and walking. Pointed out plenty things that it would be easy to miss otherwise. I think the trip was very good value for money

The buses ran frequently and covered all the highlights of the city. A very cost effective and complete way to see Oslo

A complete round trip is 1.5 hours which enables you to get a pretty good insight to Oslo as well as seeing many of its major attractions. Would recommend this to those that have only a short time in this beautiful city.

This weekend trip from Oslo to Bergen and back was truly the adventure of a lifetime. The scenery was magnificent despite (or perhaps because of) the rainy weather, and my guide Hanne was simply a joy to travel with. She was personable, articulate, knowledgeable, and really allowed me to experience Norway for all too short a time from the "inside". Hanne grew up in Bergen and knows the country around there extremely well. She was even well-connected enough to allow me to - after we'd visited a goat cheese store with marvelous cheese - actually take me up to one of the farms that supplies the goat milk where the farmer, an acquaintance of Hanne's, proudly showed me his goats and milking barn. Try having an experience like that on one of the 'self-guided tours'! The days were very long - starting at 7:30 or 8:00 and not ending until 10:00 or 11:00 at night, but they packed so much into that time. On the first day I was able to take both the Sognefjord boat cruise and and Flam scenic railway; on the second day, Hanne took me back via an alternate route that featured a ferry ride across a fjord and several more magnificent waterfalls, one of which you could actually walk behind. I can't imagine a better way to see the real Norway in such a short time. The trip is expensive (everything in Norway is staggeringly expensive) but in this case it was worth every Kroner. And I could not ask for a guide better suited to such a tour than Hanne. Highly recommended.

Great trip, would highly recommend! Bjorn is an amazing and entertaining tour guide, very relaxed trip. Lots of highlights seen from Oslo to Bergen and you can stop anywhere you like with this tour to take photos (where safe!) and very informative. Would highly suggest the fjord cruise ship ride in winter, simply beautiful. Just a natural winter wonderland Norway, and this personal tour guide with a private van definitely is the best way to go solo or with a small group!!

The trail along the Akerselva River in Oslo is the best way to enjoy Oslo if you enjoy the outdoors! The trail passes by artsy and historical areas that you might want to visit again on foot. One of the highlights was the "foodie court" that we stop at the offers a wide variety of ethnic and Norwegian foods in a quant setting. Our guide provided a wealth of information on each of the areas we passed. It was a fantastic way to spend a morning in this beautiful city. The bikes they provided were great and it is a good tour for all fitness levels. It rained a little on our tour so I recommend that you bring rain gear.
