6 good reasons to visit Oslo Visitor Centre

2. Get customised suggestions

There are plenty of apps and websites where you can get ideas and inspiration for your trip to the Greater Oslo area. These resources, however, might seem a little overwhelming.

The Oslo Pass is essential for your exploration of Oslo's museums and attractions. It includes entrance tickets to most museums, unlimited public transportation to get between the attractions on your list, and discounts on selected restaurants and activities. We can show you how it works, how to use the app on your phone, and advise you about which Oslo Pass is the most suitable for you and your visit.

Sightseeing in Oslo is for everyone, not just large groups! The city's rich and varied selection of sightseeing activities includes street art walks, ghost hunts, guided SUP paddling and electric bike tours.
