Welcome to a different sightseeing around Oslo.
We’ll take you on a journey to experience some of the beautiful sights and nature around Oslo. This private tour is limited to 3 persons, to ensure a personalized and unique experience. First stop is a small town right outside of Oslo, Drøbak. Here we will go on a short ferry trip to the fortress of Oscarsborg, which played an important role in the start of WWII. We will enjoy the beautiful scenery on this small island while having a light lunch outside, if the weather permitting. Back on the mainland we’ll continue through small and narrow streets to Drøbak center, towards the Norwegian home of Santa Claus. Here you can mail letters home with an official stamp of “Julenissen” (Santa Claus).
