My walk along the streets. I wish I knew that there are booths for tours at the Central train station. Of course a City tour would be the best. I loved to to climb to the roof of the Opera building.

I visited in spring with sunny weather so everything looked lovely. Trees in bloom everywhere and sun starting to warm up, easy to just walk around and stop at a cafe terrace. As you would expect the city is very clean and public transport is punctual with options for local trains, trams, metro, hire bikes and electric scooters. Using the tram was my favourite. Many things are within walking distance in the city centre and other places like Vigeland Park a short 25-minute tram ride away. Public transport is punctual and trams go every 10 minutes or so. I loved seeing different things outside the city centre and actually missed out on the bigger museums like Munch. I loved Grunelokka with lots of cafe, food and shop options (I bought some good second hand finds). i got lunch deals as main meals as they are cheaper and also used a sushi takeaway. Hotel breakfasts are great and good way to fuel for the day! I also checked out the free arts and museum offerings. Ekeberg sculpture park in the forest was my favourite place: it’s free, open 24hrs, it has lovely forest trails and many viewpoints across Oslo and the fjord. I preferred this place to the Vigeland Park although the latter was great for picnics. In Vigeland Park you can also visit the free Oslo City Museum that has a nice exhibition of local history.

The Munch Museum and the Oso Opera House were must-sees. We also enjoyed both the Vigeland and Ekeberg Sculpture parks. We used trams, busses, the T-bane, a ferry, and our feet to get everywhere. Clean city with happy people on skateboards, bicycles, and electric scooters.

Oslo is a very sweet and small capital. We enjoyed our stay. I think 2 days are enough... unless you plan to visit other cities of Norway. By the way... be prepared to pay a lot for food and drinks...

We combined Oslo with the train journey to Bergen - highly recommended - a few days in Bergen, a Hurtigruten cruise of the fjords, a night in Kirkenes and a final four day ‘city break’ in Oslo before returning to the UK. Oslo provided an excellent entry/exit point, with good transport links between the airport and the city. Our hotel was centrally located, allowing us to walk almost everywhere, and we managed to explore most of the must see/highlights of the city, as recommended in the guide books. Choice of restaurants is excellent and the food was of an exceptionally high standard, if expensive compared to the UK. The new Munch Museum, the Opera House and the museums on Bygdøy are all worth a visit. The Rathus is an extraordinary space inside and there are enough sights, museums and places of interest to keep one occupied for a week without too much problem. We ate in a mix of places - street food in Vippa, really excellent pizza at Mamma’s Osteria and great Norwegian gayer in Den Gladen Gris and Elias Mat & Sant. Alcohol is REALLY expensive. Expect to pay upwards of £10 for a beer and £12-15 for a glass of wine. Overall though, Oslo is a great, fun, cool city with plenty to see and do.

Oslo is a great city to visit with a wide range of cultural and outdoors activities that are all easily accessible. There are many restaurants with a range of different styles and ambience. Recommended places: - Munch gallery - National Folk Museum - Central Oslo waterfront - Great hiking trails at Frognerseter, Vettakollen, Sognsvatn - Eating at Sofies Mat og Vinhus for traditional Norwegian food and pub
