Overview
Take a trip to Oslo on your Norway Vacation
The capital of Norway, Oslo is located on the Oslo Fjord in the south of the country. It is laid out in the shape of a horseshoe around the sea and is surrounded by green hills, forests and mountains, all to be enjoyed on a Norway vacation. The city is known for awarding the Nobel Peace Prizes.
Oslo has many attractions and offers several pleasant parks, a scenic harbour and diverse architecture.
One of the best-known attractions is probably the outdoor sculptures located in Frogner Park and known as the open-air Vigeland Museum with 212 large sculptures made of bronze, granite and cast iron.
Some other important landmarks are the Royal Palace designed in the Neo-Classic style and home to the Royal Family, the Akershus Fortress, an imposing medieval castle built originally in 1299 and the contemporary, futuristic-looking Oslo Opera House located on the waterfront.
When on a Norway vacation, check out the abundance of extremely interesting museums in Oslo. The best known is possibly the Viking Ship Museum with its many Viking-era discoveries. The Kon-Tiki Museum has displays of the original vessels from the expeditions of Thor Heyerdahl. The Ibsen Museum showcases the playwright’s life and works in his former home. Norway’s Resistance Museum reflects on the country’s World War I involvement. There is also a museum dedicated to the history of the Nobel Peace Prize.
For cultur buffs on trips to Norway, there are the National Gallery which houses the largest collection of paintings and sculptures in Norway, the Oslo City Museum which also has a large collection of art, the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art and the Edvard Munch Museum dedicated to Norway’s best-known painter.
Other specialized museums include the Norway Folk Museum, an open-air museum featuring 155 traditional Norwegian houses, the Norsk Folksmuseum in nearby Bygdoy featuring folk art, and Viking exhibits and the Norwegian Museum of Magic displaying works and the history of Norway’s magicians.

What do the experts say?
If you can, plan your vacation around so you can participate in Constitution Day on May 17th. It’s Norway’s national day, but unlike most countries, it’s not military or political. It’s a huge, joyful celebration of children, culture, and national pride.
You have to try glogg, Norway’s popular mulled wine. It’s a personal favourite
With regard to packing for your trip - Layer up. Carry an umbrella and raincoat because sometimes it gets super cold super fast. And bring along a bathing suit so you can enjoy one of the many saunas there!

ExcellentBased on 5,251 ReviewsAni M was absolutely amazing to work with! I actually chose Goway for our group trip because of her recommendations. She was the only agent who took the time to explain that we really needed to split our travels into two separate trips if we wanted to experience everything on our wish list, and I really appreciated her honesty and guidance.
Throughout the planning process, Ani was incredibly helpful and answered ALL of my questions, even when I asked the same ones more than once! She was patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. I enjoyed working with her and her team so much that I already have another group trip planned with her, and I expect we'll be planning another one soon!
The guides during our Scotland trip were wonderful as well. Ian Short was the BEST! He was professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly so we could simply enjoy the experience. He even worked in sightseeing stops we didn't know we needed to see, and those little extras made the trip even better.
The entire experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. I'm already looking forward to our next adventure to Ireland with Goway and working with Ani and their team again!Angela ButlerMichael was informative and answered all my questions.
Flexible with package details and accommodated changes we preferred with activities. He put together a superb tour with transportation and guides that were very knowledgeable. Would book with them again on next trip to Europe.Christopher CareyVery nice!🥰 😘💙❤️🇪🇸🇭🇷Andrea MarićWe recently traveled to Portugal and had the most wonderful experience. As our first venture overseas, we decided to search online for travel assistance. We happened across Goway Travel and are so glad we did!
Michael Keon, our Destination Specialist, is extremely proficient and knowledgeable in his profession. "Thorough" is an understatement. He assisted every step of the way from the moment we stepped on our flights, transfer arrangements, hotel accommodations, train travel and multiple tours/outings tailored to our specific needs/wish list.
He provided unparalleled guidance and support during the planning process and was always available to discuss any questions/concerns. His communications were always prompt and concise.
Without a doubt, our best trip to date...there will be no hesitation to contact Mr. Keon for future travels.

Joanna MaysWhat made this experience great was Cedric Wai. Had a client going to Asia and this is Cedric's wheelhouse since he is from there.
Everything was wonderful. Everything went smoothly. The individual tours were wonderful and all the guides were exceptional. A lot of traveling-the flight was very good on Cathay Pacific would highly recommend their airline seats were comfortable and spaced well. Being on an airplane for 16 hours sucks in general, but other than being a little sore from being stuck in one place all was good.
Thank you so much for all your help and the trip was wonderful and everything that it should be! Next trip will be much more relaxing, sitting still for a while on a beach somewhere ha ha!Careen SullivanAndrea Paredes helped me plan a last minute Colombia trip for my clients who had never been! They loved every minute of it. The hotels, history, excursions, and flights went very smooth. They were so happy with all their tour guides. Deanna Frisbie BorregoMy destination specialist, Katie Stephenson was amazing from the onset. Her customer service, communication style and planning skills was so timely and top notch.
Our trip was to Fiji, New Zealand and Australia, from Aug 4-22, 2026. The way she planned and booked the trip makes the experience convenient and enjoyable. The flexibility of payment makes the decision faster and attractive. Everything we need to know including contacts were readily available within our travel documents itinerary.
Overall, I'll say it's money well spent and a lifetime experience particularly for my kids.FestusI'm a new travel agent and used Goway to help plan a group trip to the UK. Ani, from Goway was so great! She was very detailed oriented, she had great communication and was very thorough in the planning. I felt confident that my clients would be taken care of. My clients had an amazing trip and loved all of it! SieKyeAthul Ajay was our travel agent and he was excellent from the beginning to the end of planning our trip. Great at communicating and replying back too. Sabrina GaffoglioIsabella Luu made the arrangements for our trip to Scotland and all aspects of the trip and stay were excellent. Our assistance at the airports were very good as all were alerted to our needs. Our ride services were excellent. Isabella was always available to answer any questions that we had in a knowledgable and prompt manner, which is always very important to me.Audrey Henry
