This guided walk will give you a close-up taste of Norway’s capital city landmarks and bring you inside one of world’s most universally significant venues. Begin with a walk along the harbor front. While walking the scenic route to and from this tour’s primary destination, you’ll encounter landmark sights like the National Theater and the 173-room, buttercup-yellow Royal Palace set regally atop a hill, surrounded by lush parkland. You’ll pass the University of Oslo along the nightlife-friendly main street known as Karl Johans gate, and the Ibsen Museum along aptly-named Henrik Ibsen’s gate. After a time, you’ll arrive at the Nobel Peace Center for an inspiring inside visit. Opened in 2005. the Peace Center’s mission is in perfect accord with the spirit of Alfred Nobel’s legacy: to shed light on small as well as large-scale conflicts. Permanent and changing exhibits explore the world-improving work accomplished by Nobel laureates and the story behind the prize. You will also walk through the Akershus fortress dating back to the 13th century and from where you have great views of the Oslo harbor and fjord.
