Fram Museum: Tours & Tickets

We only had a day in Oslo so needed to plan it well. This tour covered all the major sites and we really liked the drive around the suburbs whilst heading to the sites. The guide had an excellent knowledge of the history of Oslo and was easily understood. The bus was modern and clean. I took off one star because the boat cruise was a little long at the end of a packed full day and the Viking museum was a little disappointing, not enough interactive things to do there and if you didn’t have a guide it would be meaningless.

The King of France was in town so traffic was awful in city center. Waited thru 3 stoplights just to move a foot forward. HOHOFF is the way to go to see the city. The lady commentator on the boat tour spoke in three languages. I was impressed. Get off at Nyven Canal and have a hot dog and beer. Much fun. Then hop back on and continue.

A great tour for people with a short stay duration which covers the history and present , rounding up all major landmarks ... with a warm pleasant ever smiling guide (Stein) who took care of us all the way. Would recommend the same to everyone who wants to first sample the city and then explore in detail.

Some of the stops seemed a bit disorganized, the site coordinator/ticket taker had no process for determining how many seats were available for new boarders. That should be an easy thing to track.

The tour was a great way to get in all the important sites of Oslo in one day. The staff were kind and knowledgeable. The bus and organization made it very easy to go from place to place.
