4.00Enjoyed the story and appreciated being able to see the rafts in person. Felt like there could have been more shown from Thor’s life. But great exhibition nonetheless

5.00It’s kind of ironic that one of our favorite things to see in Oslo was a museum about a Polynesian voyage. This museum was great. My 11 year old got immersed in reading the story and said it was his favorite museum. I liked the Fram next door, so there was something for everyone. And there is a decent cafe just outside wine reasonably priced food, so it was easy to do this during the day. Bus from Oslo city center drops of right in front of the museums.
