The Norwegian National Opera & Ballet
Oslo's Opera House is located right at the harbour, with an angled, white exterior that appears to rise from the water. It invites its visitors to climb its roof and enjoy panoramic views of Oslo and the fjord, all year round
Akershus Castle and Fortress (Akershus Slott og Festning)
Akershus Fortress is a great place to discover Oslo's history and enjoy a day. The building of Akershus Castle and Fortress was commenced in 1299 under king Håkon V. The medieval castle, which was completed in the 1300s, had a strategical location at the very end of the headland, and withstood a number of sieges throughout the ages. King Christian IV (1588-1648) had the castle modernised and converted into a Renaissance castle and royal residence.

We were asked to reschedule our time for this tour which was okay. However, our guide rushed in several minutes late, stating “just in time”. It only got worse from there. No schedule or itinerary. ‘What do you want to see?” How should I know. I am the visitor. I told her “this is hidden gems of Oslo”. We walked to the Opera House. She pointed out “look, there is an apartment building”; “look, there is a restaurant”; I was pointed out more dogs …Tanya Lisa was the worst guide I have experienced on this trip. Unfocused. Very little historical information. We walked to the Univ of Oslo. She said it was closed but I saw people going in. I asked if that wasn’t where the Munch painting was. We made it in with 9 minutes to spare before it closed. My granddaughter and husband left after an hour of her babbling. I stuck with it for another two hours but quit This tour us a waste of time, energy, and money. DO NOT USE THIS TOUR!!

We were able to see parts of the city you could only see by walking. Favorite part was the sculptor garden.
