Summary: October 13, 2025, Canada The Oslo bus tour was great! We covered all the main sites. Oslo is beautiful and the bus tour showed off the major sites and our guide covered all the history with some humour included! You can't miss the Vigeland Park, it is absolutely beautiful and I returned the next day to see it again. The Fram Museum was also so fascinating! Loved all the sites and the history. I only wish we had more time in the Vigeland Park to take pictures and go to the gift shop, it was truly a special place that you don't want to miss!! The ski jump was spectacular and I wish we had a little more time there as well.
