What you'll do

Explore one of the happiest cities on earth, nestled between oceans once ventured by Vikings, in a day tailored to your wildest Norwegian wishes, like marveling at the world’s largest sculpture park, and strolling along the heart of the city’s center towards the palace of a king. Backtrack to medieval times outside a fortified castle fit for a shieldmaiden and fast-forward to modernity on the roof of the glacier-like Opera House. For lunch, hop over to Oslo’s coolest borough by the river Grünerløkka, teeming with artsy folk, to an indoor market for a taste of traditional Norwegian meatballs Kjøttkaker. Back near city central, picturesque streets lined with colorful wooden houses await, but skip the crowds to a rockin’ pub for a glass of potato aquavit – skål!

Where you’ll go

In the heart of an ever-evolving city, wind along the capital’s main pansy-lined vain Karl Johan street, dotted with cosy cafés and a parliament drizzled with French and Italian architectural influences, towards the neoclassical royal palace. Smack in the middle is Oslo’s protector the Akershus Fortress, with nearby neighbor the Oslo Cathedral, adorned with stained glass windows. Skip over to the lapping water of the Oslofjord, where the iconic Scandinavian-styled Opera House glimmers on the edge, before wandering the hip streets of borough Grünerløkka, a treasure trove of free-flowing street art and foodie haven (mmm)Mathallen market. After lunch, navigate the charming homes on Telthusbakken and Damstredet streets, towards no-nonsense pub Last Train.
