WHAT YOU WILL SEE
Akershus Castle and Fortress - In 1299, King Hakon V ordered the construction of this imposing fortification to defend the headland, harbor and city of Oslo. The battlements have been put to the test a number of times through the years by invading forces. In the 17th century, the fortress was modernized and converted into a royal residence.
Oslo City Hall - This imposing brick structure serves as the municipal center while also hosting high-profile events like the annual Nobel Peace Prize ceremony held each December. The eastern tower features a set of 49 bells.
National Theater - In the land of legendary playwright Henrik Ibsen, theater is a favorite pastime. Throughout the year, this grand facility stages local productions and hosts touring companies from around the world.
Royal Palace - Surrounded by verdant rolling parkland, this magnificent estate has served as the home of Norwegian monarchs since the early 19th century.
WHAT YOU WILL VISIT
Magic Ice Bar - Bundle up in the winter gear provided and step inside for an unforgettable experience. This bar - whose walls, tables and even glasses are made of ice - lets you kick back and 'chill' in a truly unique environment. Toast your Oslo adventure with a complimentary drink while you check out the 'way-cool' ice sculptures. From here, return to your ship with your guide or stay at the Ice Bar and enjoy another round on your own.
