10 Hidden Gems Things to do in Oslo That You Shouldn't Miss

October 12, 2021 Renato Branum

The 1000-year-old Norwegian capital sits at the head of Oslo Fjord. This stunning setting gives hints of the wild wonders that lie just beyond the city. From taking in visual delights at Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Viking Ship Museum, the Munch Museum and Holmenkollen, to the challenging content within the new Nobel Peace Centre and the Holocoust Center, Oslo offers plenty of food for thought. The Oslo Pass allows free travel on public transport, free parking and many museum and sight admissions.

It's great to have such a huge and fantastic hiking area just outside the city center with good public transportation. Unfortunately, I had to live here for 18 years before I found out, thanks to closed activities due to Covid-19.

Let Viking Biking and Viking Hiking show you all Oslo has to offer.

Have been to other escape rooms, but this is absolutely the best in Oslo! You understand it once you enter it: very spacious, minimatistic design, panorama windows and chilled music on the back. We have done "House of Evil" game. Interesting and different tasks in each room. Sounds and effects are like in reality. Every room has its topic and authentic things, which makes it interesting to solve! Great idea for team building and fun way to spend time with friends. Activity that unites. Another cool activity besides bars, clubs and table games. Leaves unforgettable emotions . Would reccomend it to everyone, who wants to spend quality time! Great experience . Will definitely repeat!

If you have some kind of thing you are geeking out about, then this is the place for you. Amazing selection of toys, books, comics and other fun stuff, even for the youngest kids and those who just love the "cute stuff". No trip to Oslo is complete without a trip to this place. Just remember to bring some money, because you can't really get out of here without picking up something you HAVE TO HAVE. And take your time. You might just find something more to geek out about before you leave =)

Had a great experience with Space Mission. The crew were cool and professional, taught us what we needed and helped us if we had problems. The mission was a bit short, but place and atmosphere was great.
