Note: 1 hour drive each direction from Oslo. We take you to the scenic area of Tyrifjord and Jevnaker. The main attraction is the Kistefos museum and sculpture park. Note that the new gallery building "The Twist" was listed in New York Times – 52 Places to go in 2020, number 21.

Polar exploration was important in late 1800 and early 1900. There was a race to conquer the North pole and the South pole. In the Polar Museum you find the two authentic polar ships Fram (-forward) and Gjøa. Rewarded "The best museum in Norway". The most impressive is that we can enter the original 130 years old ship and get the polar feeling forced onto us by the multimedla film above us showing the combined drama of sea, wind, ice bergs and northern light.

Le centre-ville d'Oslo est assez petit. Nous vous recommandons de choisir un hôtel dans le centre-ville ou à proximité (nous pouvons réserver). Oslo est idéale pour flâner, et bien sûr, nous vous guiderons. Voici notre opéra moderne, évoquant un iceberg émergeant de la mer. Vous pouvez même marcher sur son toit en marbre.

Let's enjoy the Queens view over Tyrifjord. And maybe a cake and coffee at the historic restaurant & Hotel Kleivstua.

La Norvège est un royaume démocratique depuis 1814 et notre Parlement est situé sur la rue principale Karl Johan. Devant le Parlement se trouvent le célèbre Grand Hôtel et le parc animé d'Eidsvoll.

Oslo's mail street is the Karl Johan, place to see and to be seen during the last 200 years. Today a part of our pedestrian city center (however a couple of crossing streets with cars). Imagine the street at our constitution day May 17th (1814) when tens of thousands of children are waving their flags or their march up to greet the King!

One of the most important buildings in the city center is Akershus Fortress, built in 1300. Open for walks during the day and early evening. There is also a nice restaurant overlooking the old harbor and the City Hall.

La principale raison du développement d'Oslo au cours des 500 dernières années est la rivière Aker, qui a divisé la ville en deux. Avec ses 20 chutes d'eau « productives », elle a d'abord alimenté nos moulins à grains et nos scieries, puis, au XIXe siècle, nos industries sidérurgique et textile. Aujourd'hui, c'est un parc et une aire de loisirs de 10 km². Les parties les plus basses sont occupées par les « hipsters ».

The most prominent building facing the sea is the Oslo City hall, well-known as the venue of the Nobel Peace Price ceremony every year.

The Nobel Peace Prize ceremony takes place every year in the Oslo City Hall. A torched procession down Karl Johan and past the Grand Hotel (where the winner is accommodated) is held during the evening of the ceremony, and the next night a televised concert takes place. If time we can visit the nearby Nobel Peace Centre

Norway is a democratic Kingdom and our Parliament situated on the main street of Karl Johan. We'll walk up front to the King's guards.

À quelques kilomètres à l'ouest du centre-ville se trouve le grand parc de sculptures Vigeland, ouvert au public jour et nuit. Ses centaines de sculptures en plein air illustrent le cycle de la vie. Nous serons heureux de vous proposer une visite guidée du parc.
