Summary
For an outstanding break, you can’t go wrong when you book a multi centre holiday to Oslo. Norway’s capital city is a jewel in Scandinavia’s crown, with abundant natural beauty, magnificent museums and historic sights.
The 19th Century Royal Palace and 17th Century Oslo Cathedral are just two iconic buildings you’ll see during your stay. Another highlight we’d recommend visiting is the Akershus Fortress, located by the water and with a story spanning hundreds of years of Norwegian history.
If you love being out on the water, Oslo has plenty of options. For example, you can go on the Oslofjord Harbour sightseeing sail, jump in a kayak, do a spot of fishing or even hire a traditional Viking rowboat.
Spending time browsing museums is a must in Oslo because there’s such a diverse selection. For example, there’s the awesome Natural History Museum, the Viking Planet and the Kistefos Museum and Sculpture Park, to name just a few.
Oslo is also renowned for its super outdoor spaces. The Vigeland Sculpture Park has some stunning pieces of art; then there’s Ingierstrand beach and the oasis of the beautiful Botanical Garden.
There’s also something for everyone when it comes to shopping in Oslo. The choice is fantastic whether you’d like to explore big brand stores, independent boutiques, or search for jewellery and souvenirs.
After a busy day touring the city, you’ll have worked up an appetite. Local specialities include lamb ribs and cured fish, among many others.
