Norwegian Windrose: Oslofjord and Museums

3 hours

Very easy

Norway has gotten a unique maritime heritage due to its 58 thousand km long coastline as well as the curious and brave explorers.

The Norwegians have been always friendly with the sea. In the times of Vikings, they used their shallops to reach distant shores and thus to explore the unknown to them before places. And so the love to the sea travelings has been left as an inheritance to their ancestors. The Fram and Kon-Tiki Museums will give you an idea not only about the expeditions to the unknown but, what is more important, will introduce you to those people, who have dedicated their knowledge and lives to expanding the boundaries of human representations about the world, which surrounds them.

You meet your guide at an express ferry pier named Bygdøyferge from opposite the City Hall.
