Experience Oslo and some of its many tourist attractions with your own tour guide. Start with the impressive and monumental buildings in Karl Johan street: the neoclassical University and the Royal Palace, the Baroque National Theatre and the Roman style Parliament House. Visit the venue of the Nobel Peace Prize, the Oslo City Hall, with interwar period architecture and lavish decorations of Norwegian art. Continue past the imposing Renaissance Akershus Fortress facing the trendy Aker Wharf and the waterfront and continue to the Baroque Oslo Cathedral from 1697. Walk on the roof of the amazing Opera House, a landmark with an exterior looking more like a glacier than an opera and ballet stage.
Ride the tram to one of Norway’s top ten tourist attractions, the Vigeland Park, and get the privilege of being guided by the author of the book about this park. An illustrated copy of this book in English, signed by the author, is included in the price. Return to the city by public transport and spend the rest of your afternoon and evening exploring more of Oslo at your own pace.
