What To Expect

Greet your guide at a central Oslo location and climb aboard a luxury coach for a sightseeing tour of the city. Stop first at Vigeland Park, a verdant expanse that immortalizes the work of sculptor, Gustav Vigeland. Stroll past more than 200 bronze and granite sculptures, capturing photographs of iconic pieces like the 46-foot (14-meter) Monolith and the statue of an angry London boy.

Next, travel to the world-famous Holmenkollen Ski Jump to absorb sweeping vistas of Oslo. During some leisurely free time, soak up incredible views and hear of why the ski jump used in the 1952 Olympics is so iconic.

Return to the center of Oslo to embark on a whistle-stop tour of the capital’s historical highlights; listen to insightful commentary as you cruise past Arkershus Castle, the Royal Palace Park and Oslo Cathedral. Listen to legends surrounding the Oslo Fjord and the Oslo Opera House before returning to the tour's original departure point and bidding your guide farewell.

I missed this tour because I could not find the bus stop. I asked the locals but nobody knew where exactly the plaza is. Perhaps it would be good to provide a map versus instructions.

This was an excellent introduction to the sights of Oslo. The tour was very well run and we were well looked after by our lovely guide Anne-Grethe. First we were driven around Oslo town and given lots of interesting information about the buildings. Then we drove to the Ski jump and had 25minutes to get out and look around. As we drove to the next stop Anne-Grethe talked about the Norwegian culture and how Norwegians live today with plenty of humour thrown in. We got out and were taken through Vigeland park and introduced to some of the statues by our guide, then back in the bus to our starting point. This was really only a brief introduction. If you want to spend time at the sights choose a hop on- hop off bus. This was just the right length tour for us as we only had two days in Oslo.

First 45 minutes of tour were completely silent from tour guide. Not a single word and I'm not exaggerating as I looked at the clock on the bus. Drove around the downtown area but seemingly without much purpose. First stop was the ski jump. Sadly, all the bus tours are kept inside a fenced area so we could not walk up the jump, or down to the winter activities area which had a great biathlon going on. Wothless and pointless. The back on the bus for another totally silent drive to Vigeland Park. Our guide spoke in three languages, but her stops were short and not that informative. Then back to our pickup location with the only words being the tour is over. If you are expecting a tour that routes you to interesting places with ongoing narrative on history, relevance, etc., you can forget this one as you won't get it here. A total waste of . And a word on Oslo...much more depressing looking than I had hoped...think of a Nordic version of Detroit.

Good tour but a little more walking than we'd anticipated as my husband has arthritis. You can stay on the bus however whilst others walk around the sculpture park, so not a huge problem

Started off poorly with a mix up with buses, tour was late leaving and late coming back making us miss a connecting ferry. Tour wasn't too informative and very military style with hardly any free time to explore. Highly disappointed in the tour. Oslo itself is beautiful

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.
