Meeting by the ship

Meeting by the ship. The start time of the tour is given approximately and will be adjusted depending on your ship arrival time. The exact meeting time will be specified on your confirmation letter.

Vigeland Sculpture Park

A guided walk through the Vigeland installation in Frogner Park, the life's work of Gustav Vigeland and the largest sculpture park anywhere by a single artist. Its 212 figures in bronze, granite and wrought iron were made between 1924 and 1943 and follow human life from infancy to old age. The Monolith at the top of the terraces was carved from one block of granite and carries 121 intertwined figures; the small bronze known as the Angry Boy on the bridge is the most photographed sculpture in Norway.

Oslo City Hall

A stop at Oslo City Hall, the twin-towered brick building on the harbour finished in 1950 after the war interrupted its construction. The Nobel Peace Prize is presented in its main hall every 10 December, under murals by Norwegian painters including Edvard Munch. It stands a few minutes from the cruise berth.

Karl Johans gate

A walk along Karl Johans gate, the main street, named after the French marshal who became king of Norway and Sweden. It runs from the Central Station to the Royal Palace of 1849 at the top of the hill, passing the Storting, the Norwegian parliament of 1866, the old university buildings and the National Theatre of 1899, with Ibsen and Bjørnson in bronze outside it.
