The Highlights Of Oslo
This sightseeing tour begins with a pleasant motorcoach drive through the center of Oslo.
All the city's best sights are seen as you drive by buildings such as the Akershus Castle, the parliament buildings, the Royal Palace, the National Theatre and the old buildings of Oslo's university. The Nobel Institute will be pointed out to you.
Watch for the famous Vigeland Sculpture Park,a tribute to mankind's journey through life. Created and completed by Gustav Vigeland, there are more than 150 sculptures in the park crafted from stone and bronze. There will be no walking in the park, but you will catch a glimpse of some of the sculptures as you pass the main entrance.
Oslo's charming residential areas lead you to the Holmenkollen Ski Jump. From the motorcoach you will look down over the city and fjord below, a truly beautiful sight.
This ski jump was the main venue of the 1952 Winter Olympic Games and is still celebrated in March every year. This is one of Oslo's most cherished annual events.
En route back to the city you will pass the charming and traditional Frognerseteren Restaurant as well as the Kragstytten viewpoint.
