Oslo, la capital, es la ciudad más grande de Noruega. Ubicada en el extremo del fiordo de Oslo, la ciudad se encuentra rodeada de colinas boscosas y picos nevados. Noruega es una nación marítima y Oslo es el principal puerto para los servicios entre el continente e Inglaterra. A través de sus 900 años de historia, Oslo ha sufrido muchos incendios y, en consecuencia, cuenta actualmente con una mezcla de diversos estilos arquitectónicos. Con una zona céntrica compacta, muchas de las atracciones de Oslo pueden explorarse a pie.

PRE- SNAPSHOT OF NORWAY CODE: OSLL01
Travel throughout the dramatic, naturally beautiful Norwegian fjord country, visiting historical sites, riding Europe’s steepest railway, ferrying across Sognefjord and cruising down the arm of another majestic fjord.
Día 1
Upon arrival at the Oslo International Airport, you will be met and transferred by private vehicle to the Grand Hotel Oslo. Check in is at 2:00pm. The remainder of the day is yours for discovering the city at your own pace.
As the hotel is in the city center, only a 10-minute walk from city hall and the harbor, you may enjoy a leisurely stroll on your own around Aker Brygge and Tjuvholmen, a popular area with plenty of restaurants.
Día 2
Following breakfast at your hotel, check out and the day begins with a short sightseeing drive through Oslo before continuing to the mountain area of Gol and Hemsedal, a popular-ski resort. On the way, you will pass idyllic lakes and spectacular mountain scenery, before arriving at Borgund Stave Church, the best preserved of the 28 stave churches still remaining in Norway. The church dates back to the 12th century.
After an outside visit of the church and short coffee/tea break, you will continue down to one of the arms of Sognefjord, the longest fjord in Norway. Crossing by ferry, you will then follow a coastal road to the historical Kvikne Hotel in Balestrand, where you will stay for the evening.
Día 3
Following breakfast, you will enjoy a ferry crossing over the Sognefjord from Dragsvik to Vangsnes. From here, the road climbs steeply and bends sharply. Drive through the mountain area via Stalheim and Norway’s steepest road.
After arriving at Gudvangen, enjoy some free time before you proceed by boat for one of the most beautiful crossings of the Norwegian fjords through the narrow and scenic Nærøyfjord. It has been deemed a UNESCO World Heritage site for its towering mountain walls, beautiful waterfalls and tiny goat farms.
Upon arrival in Flåm there will be a short walk to a local restaurant for lunch. Next you will board a train for a one-hour ride (the steepest in Europe) that ascends almost 3,000 feet, from the fjord to Myrdalsberget Mountain. The route to Geilo passes breathtaking mountains, beautiful lakes, and quaint cabins in the woods.
You will finally arrive in Geilo and check into the historical Dr. Holms Hotel for dinner and to spend the evening.
Día 4
Following breakfast at the hotel, you will drive east, admiring a different sort of rural landscape along the way. Around mid-day, you will arrive at Jevnaker to tour Hadeland Glassworks, which was established in 1762. Here, you will watch glassblowers demonstrate their skills, shaping molten glass into the most extraordinary items. Later, you will visit the museum at the glassworks, where more than 700 pieces of distinctive glassware are on display. The exhibits show the development of Norwegian glass making from the 1700s until today and offer a fascinating look into the Norwegian culture.
After free time for shopping and lunch, you will continue towards Oslo, passing Tyrifjord, which is actually a lake not a fjord. In time, you will arrive back in Oslo and embark the ship.

Explore the enchanting Norwegian capital of Oslo, admiring its panoramic views, contemporary architecture, and historical museums.
Día 1
Disembark the ship and transfer to the public boat pier where you will board a vessel and cruise along the Oslofjord. Along the way, you will see forested islands, the fortress of Akershus, and the two towers of the Town Hall, a building inaugurated in 1950 for Oslo’s 900th anniversary.
Back at the pier, drive to your hotel for check in. Once you have checked-in, the remainder of the day is at your leisure and meals are on your own.
As the hotel is in the city center, only a 10 minute walk from city hall and the harbor, you may enjoy a leisurely stroll on your own around Aker Brygge and Tjuvholmen, a popular area with plenty of restaurants.
Día 2
Following breakfast, you will drive through the City Center to the famed Oslo Opera House. Designed by the Norwegian firm Snøhetta, the contemporary marble-and-glass building is a work of art that has won countless awards. Pausing long enough for photos from the roof of the opera house (outside visit), you will enjoy a spectacular view of the surrounding Bjøvika neighborhood.
Then, it’s on to the Vigeland Sculpture Park, an 80-acre green oasis with more than 200 bronze and granite sculptures of the human form in various positions. Commissioned by the city of Oslo, Norwegian sculptor Gustav Vigeland created the sculpture park over a period of 20 years. “The Monolith,” a highly symbolic piece with 121 intertwined human bodies, is the centerpiece and took more than 14 years to create.
Aviso: you will have approximately 1 km of walking here.
Continuing on, you will drive to the Holmenkollen Ski Jump, a towering monument of steel and concrete that opened in 2010 for competitive ski jumping. From the top, you will enjoy a magnificent view of Oslo, the fjord and surrounding islands.
Following lunch, you will drive on to the Norwegian Open Air Museum on the peninsula of Bygdøy. The exhibits reflect the daily life and living conditions in Norway from the 16th century to present time. More than 150 buildings from various parts of the country are displayed, including the 12th-century Stave Churches and an entire street depicting life in the year 1865.
Next visit the Maritime Museum which houses the 9th century Viking boat from the largest Gokstad Viking ship findings along with a wide range of Norwegian maritime cultural heritage including the country's oldest vessel (2200 years old).
View a new exhibition where ship builders will be reconstructing one of the smaller Viking boats from the “Gokstad” discovery using scientific and experimental methods that can provide unknown knowledge about the Vikings’ vessels.
This evening, enjoy a stroll around the city and a taste of some of the best Norwegian beers, cheeses and cured meats.
The first stop will be the most haunted place in Oslo, the Akershus Fortress, from where you’ll follow the ghosts to the center of medieval Christiania. The tour then continues with a stroll around the City Hall and its beautifully decorated entrance where you’ll learn more about Norse mythology.
Leaving the old times behind, the second part of our tour is dedicated to Norway’s modern history and culture which is highlighted by such sights as the Parliament building, National Theatre and the Royal Palace.
Conclude the evening with a 30-45-minute tasting session that includes 3 beer samples, Norwegian akvavit and a selection of traditional Norwegian cheeses and cured meat” In all, the evening program takes 2-2.5 hours.
Día 3
Following breakfast, your bus and guide will take you an another full sightseeing-day in Oslo. Your first goal will be the peninsula of Bygdøy with the Fram and Kon-Tiki museums.
"Fram" Polarmuseum: Norway is an Arctic Nation, and this Museum - built in 1936, and upgraded several times in the recent years is dedicated to the polar expeditions and the explorers Fridtjof Nansen, Roald Amundsen and Otto Sverdrup –. The exhibits include Photographs, Film, Light Effects, Models and displays of Historical Artefacts. Further, there is an Aurora light-show in the roof and a “Dark Walk” aiming to give an impression of polar conditions. The main exhibit, however, is the complete polarship “FRAM” built in 1893 – specially designed to withstand the pressure of pack-ice. The proud little ship is still the surface vessel that has sailed both furthest North – reaching 85° 57'n latitude with Nansens expedition from 1893-1896 – and furthest South reaching 78° 41's latitude with Amundsens expedition to the South Pole from 1910-1912.
Kon-Tiki Museum: The museum houses the original balsa raft used by Thor Heyerdahl and his five companions in 1947 during their voyage from Peru to Polynesia, across 3000 kilometres of ocean. Further, you find the papyrus-boat RA II with which Tor Heyerdahl, again with his faithfully companions, successfully crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1970. A good selection of documentary material is also on display.
After ample time to explore inside these two museums, the group will head back to town to visit the National Museum (opened late 2022) which offers a range of exhibitions showing Norwegian and international art, architecture and design. The famous “Scream” painting is always on display here among 50,000 other objects from the wide collection of Norwegian heritage. Your Oslo guide will give you a tour through this museum.
From the National Museum you will take the bus up to Ekeberg, making a short photostop at the so-called “Munch-svingen” – with an impressive view of Oslo, which is said to be the background for the famous “Scream-painting”.

From Ekeberg you will start a guided walk through the privately arranged Ekeberg Scultpure Park, displaying some sculptures from famous artists all around the world, among them Rodin, Dali, Renoir, Henry, Hirst and many more.
Your bus then returns the group to your hotel and the remainder of the day is at your leisure.
La cena corre por su cuenta.
Día 4
Following breakfast at the hotel and check out (don’t forget to settle any incidentals before departing), transfer to the pier to board a public sightseeing boat for a cruise along the Oslofjord. Along the way, you will see forested islands, the fortress of Akershus, and the two towers of the Town Hall, a building inaugurated in 1950 for Oslo’s 900th anniversary.
Back at the pier, transfer to the port for embarkation.
