Best Oslo Tours & Trips

This capital city was ranked No. 1 in terms of quality of life among European large cities in the European Cities of the Future 2012 report by fDi magazine. Oslo is home to many world-class museums, has a burgeoning nightlife scene and is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream, as it is hemmed by miles of forest and is in close proximity to lakes, islands and fjords. Vikingskipshuet (Viking Ship Museum) should not be missed as it houses the best preserved Viking ships in the world; neither should the National Gallery, home of Edvard Munch’s masterpiece The Scream.

7-Day Nordic Fjords & Three Countries Loop Tour: Denmark, Sweden & Norway

I booked this trip for all three of us. The pace was comfortable enough for them, and luggage handling between hotels was manageable. The driver was careful and the coach was always clean. We had one rainy afternoon but that's just Nordic weather. Still a wonderful vacation.

Overall a wonderful experience across Scandinavia. The highlight for me was walking along Nyhavn in Copenhagen, such a postcard-perfect view. The tour was well organized and we didn’t feel rushed. Hotels were clean and comfortable, especially in Stockholm. Our guide was patient and shared lots of cultural insights. Highly recommended for first-time visitors to Northern Europe.
