Vigeland Sculpture Park is the result of one man’s artistic obsession and a lifetime of work dedicated to human nature. The park itself, with its sculptures and fountains, is like none other in the world. In fact, it’s the largest sculpture park created by a single artist in the world!

Each statue has a character and will tell you a story if you let it. Your guides will help you discover the meaning and history of each element in this one-of-a-kind open air gallery. After the tour is over, you may want to stay in the park a bit longer to enjoy a warm summer evening, and a bit of calm in the middle of a bustling city.

 Verified Wonderful city walks
Ancient city tour + Nordic mythology + psychic stories, interspersed with royal gossip. The tour guide said Norwegians grew up frightened by stories of "mountains eating children" and "that's how you start loving dark stories". Each story begins with the phrase, “On a bad day, just like today ...” and is very engrossing, with some special tips for dealing with mountain demons. Norwegians are really proud of their monsters, Troll the Mountain Demon, the Forest Elves who confuse passersby, Kraken the Sea Monster.. Don't take a stroll in the rain anyway. Oslo's favorite trip, truly recommended.

 Verified Immerse yourself in the legends of Oslo.
Our hostess was excellent. Very funny and enthusiastic, you can tell she enjoys her job and that makes it fun for everyone. She was extremely knowledgeable on the City and Countries history. The history becomes alive, and you feel that you are part of it. Would recommend to any visitors to Oslo.

 Verified Fun and entertaining
What a fun and interesting tour. Anastasia was excellent!! She gave us information, then a story or two at every stop. We were all so engaged and entertained. We didn’t walk a ton, but you will be standing / walking for 2 hours so make sure you are up for it. We could have talked about City Hall the entire time!

 Verified Best Tour Ever Alert
We booked a private Myths and Legends tour with Marija and had THE BEST time. The rest of our stay in Oslo was made more colorful with the knowledge we had about the city’s rich history and cultural icons. For anyone interested in history or folklore, I can’t recommend this tour enough. 100/10!!
