City Walk & City Hall
Strenuous Activity
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
Begin your walk at the pier where your guide will point out the statue of Franklin D. Roosevelt, which overlooks the harbor of Oslo.
Stroll down the wide streets to Oslo's City Hall, an architecturally designed modern landmark that not only houses the city council but an impressive collection of frescoes, woodcarvings, sculptures, and murals representing many aspects of Norwegian life.
Pass by two sites that pay homage to the city's theatrical heritage. See The National Theater, Norway's principle venue for the performing arts and continue to the restored apartment of the great playwright Henrik Ibsen.
The wide main street of Oslo, known as Karl Johan is alive with activity and home to a number of historic attractions. Close by you will see the sprawling University of Oslo, ranked one of the world's top 100 universities. Henik Ibsen reportedly walked through this collegiate atmosphere everyday and you'll follow in his footsteps to his destination, the Grand Café, meeting point of the Bohemians in the 1890's.
Depending where you are docked, see the Royal Palace or the Opera House before turning down the main street and returning to the ship.
