Oslo Shore Excursion: City Hop On Hop Off Tour
You can hop on and off as many times as you like aboard this open-top, double-decker bus. There are 10 stops, and the entire route takes approximately 90 minutes. The bus departs every 30 minutes from each stop. Tickets are valid for one day.
Oslo, the oldest and sunniest of the Scandinavian capitals, was founded by Harald Hadrade in the 11th century and is surrounded by mountains at the head of a 70-mile (100 kilometer) fjord. You can visit Akershus Fortress, or feel like a real Viking at the Viking Ship Museum.
This excursion is located within a 10-minute walk to the cruise port, so you determine the time you return to your ship in Oslo. Please allow yourself ample time to enjoy the excursion and ensure your timely return to the port. This excursion is not covered by our worry-free policy

The bus came right to our ship. Oslo is a big city with many sites spread out in a large area. The hop-on-hop off made it easy to get from site to site. It was raining the day we visited Oslo and the bus made it convenient .to stay dry while traveling between sites. It was also possible to skip some outside venues and come back later when the showers stopped. In Oslo as in some other locations, there are copy cat hop-on-hop off buses that look almost identical. People were frequently trying to get on the wrong buses. Make sure you note the slight differences between them. Our's was identified as the "Official" hop-on-hop off. Bus staff pointed this out at our first ship side stop.
