Ski jump and Sculpture park Tour - We had a short excursion time. This was a nice excursion to get a “first time” view of Oslo. We learned about the town as we drove to the ski jump. Our guide walked with us through the sculpture park giving us lots of information. We appreciated having a guide rather than a recording on the hop on hop off bus. It was a bit of a walk to the start from the cruise ship. They dropped us off at the cruise ship on the return.

Nice place to visit to cool off during the afternoon and enjoy the view overlooking Oslo - A nice place to visit and see. There is a zip line and a virtual ski jump. Scenery is awesome overlooking Oslo. a short travel up past and you come to an old restaurant that overlooks Oslo. nice place to sit and have a beer or some Norwegian food. Great views.

Good Value - The only reasonably priced tour we could find in Oslo & it’s quite good. Driver & guide helpful & informative. Bus very comfortable & not full on our trip. Seems to cover many areas as Oslo not a big city.

Quick Oslo Visit - It is a fast paced tour over the city of Oslo but nonetheless worthwhile especially if you only have a few hours to explore the city and have to get back again in the cruise ship. The guide and driver were both good especially with timekeeping. The Holmenkollen Ski Jump and Vigeland Park were the highlights of this tour. It’s worth taking this tour.

Very interesting tour. - The Ski Jump was very interesting. Vigeland Park was definitely the most outstanding of the sights. It was rather a pity though, because we lost your Guide at the Park. She did tell us that the coach would pick us up from a different place but did not indicate where and said to follow her flag. When we finished taking photos we could not see her flag so returned to the drop-off. The driver of an other coach tried to contact her and told us that the coach had returned to where we were collected then he kindly arranged for a taxi to pick us up and take us to our ship, so we did not complete the tour. The taxi cost us £42. I have used Viator in the past and was very satisfied with the service.

Interesting - Both places visited were great to see. The size of the ski jump was immense. The sculptures in the part were lovely but not really to my taste.

Great city to view, but not from a bus - Very difficult to see city highlights from a bus window-we’ve had excellent experience s with double decker busses in other cities. Guide was very good-lots of information and humor to boot. Best part of tour was Vigeland Park-amazing!
