    We arrived at the Fram Museum via a harbor water taxi. The museum is awesome for those who are interested in historic polar exploration to the North and South Poles (and even those who are not familiar with polar exploration). The Fram can be boarded on its main deck and you can explore the lower two decks to understand the living conditions of the crew. Surrounding the ship is a three story walkway the flows with the history of Norwegian exploration and explorers. A wonderful way to spend 2 -3 hours in Oslo.

    A brilliant park with many sculptures to see. There were a lot of tourists when we visited so I’m assuming early or later in day are the best times to visit

    I highly recommend for all kinds of travelers. Worth it! You can buy tickets online and I recommend doing this. You’ll need to wear good shoes for this place as well. Plan on spending a minimum of 3-4 hours.

    Nice museum to see before visiting the park for some contex and background. Vigeland was very prolific so there is a lot to see. Museum was quite empty when we went

    Because this is a viking country you must is it this museum. It small and pricey but still worth it. There are well preserved ships from ancient times and even realistic ones as though you are actually in a ship. Don't miss this one even if you are not a lover of museums.

    The Holmenkollen hill is located about 30 minutes from downtown Oslo. Excellent public transport makes it easy to reach the nearby station.

    We visited on a clear and sunny day and enjoyed some great views of the fjord and the city during our walk from the station to the museum and the jump.

    The museum is excellent and in particular we liked the informative polar expedition exhibits.

    We took the opportunity to take this tour from our cruise ship and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
    The rising sides of the Fjord were amazing.

    This is a wonderful park open (and free!) to the public. The park contains numerous sculptures by the famous sculptor Gustav Vigeland and it’s truly awe inspiring to see these lifelike sculptures made of stone. On a sunny day you’ll find the park filled with locals taking advantage of the nice weather. The park is used for all kinds of recreational activities ranging from working out, dog walking, picnics, concerts, birthday celebrations, playing games, bird watching, etc.
    It’s very easy to get here from Oslo Central station either by tram, bus or subway (or simply by walking the few kilometers through the beautiful neighborhoods).
    In addition to the sculptures, the park contains cafeterias, tennis courts, a huge play ground for kids and swimming pools (extra cost).

    We loved this museum more than the Munch. This gallery has been newly decorated in the last few years so it is very well presented. The Munch art it had were superb. Also a lot of other very interesting art. Great place. You must go on the roof terrace for a view.

    Nice place to wander and see and take photos but unfortunately tours in English are only on weekends. So plan accordingly.

    But it is free to visit
