For a tour that showcases all that Oslo has to offer, look no further than this full-day trip and take in all the significant sights. Admire artwork in Vigeland Sculpture Park, a famous sporting venue, local history in museums, and the area's stunning natural beauty on a fjord cruise.

Begin with a stroll through the popular recreation space that contains more than 200 examples of the sculptures by Gustav Vigeland and admire these weird and wonderful pieces. Nearby is the soaring ski jump at Holmenkollen—an eye-catching structure inspiring images of fearless athletes launching skyward.

Next, head to Bygdoy, a peninsula and popular recreation area for city dwellers looking for quieter surroundings, and visit 3 excellent museums. Stop by the Viking Ship Museum, offering insight into maritime history of the region, before you learn about the polar expanse in the Fram Museum. Finally, hear about the escapades of Thor Heyerdahl in the Kon-Tiki Museum.

Your Oslo adventure concludes with a refreshing cruise on the fjord. On this guided 2-hour cruise, see the breathtaking scenery the area is famous for as you admire the craggy cliffs decorated with evergreen forests plunging into the deep bays and inlets.
