February 22, 2022 Mollie Coke

Called Sørlandet, Norway's South Coast is known for its rocky coastline, its whitewashed houses and its idyllic archipelago. This warmest area in the country draws many resdents for a summer holiday. Kristiansand, the biggest city here and fifth-largest in all of Norway, has many lovely beaches, a very good zoo (Norway's most visited attraction) and a number of historic buildings. These date from the period of the city's 17th-century founding and are located in Posebyen, the old town area.

Naes Ironworks Museum

Naes Ironworks Museum is located in Tvedestrand, Southern Norway. This is the only one of the old ironworks in Norway where most of the production buildings and equipment are preserved. The most important part of the museum is the blast furnace and the forge. The mechanical workshop has historical exhibitions. The operations at Naes date back to 1665. The ironworks gives a unique opportunity to see how an ironworks was organized, how people lived and worked at there, and how iron and steel were produced. Then visitors get a guided tour inside the production facilities, where the guide tell about how the work was done and demonstrate the rebuilt bellows. In addition to regular tours, the ironworks has many events and activities during the season. Nes Verk is a special national attraction, and a walk along the river Storelva, in the park and on the golf course gives a good picture of this historical area. Guided tours every hour from 11-16 in the summer season.

Reviewed By pholdahl - Tonsberg, Norway

A very professional staff took us in, explained the rules, and answered any questions! A very dark escape room, but not too dark! With a haunted theme, scary music and noises. It had both complex, surprising, and interesting puzzles, that sometimes required real teamwork! It was an exciting and thrilling experience, that in my taste could have been just a little bit more scary! But I will not subtract a star for that, as I myself is quite hardened when it comes to scary stuff! Great work Escape Room Kristiansand, I will definitely come back, and recommend you to anyone visiting Kristiansand! :D

Unwrapped Butikkafe

A lovely and modern cafe boutique selling locally produced food, soaps, cosmetics and household items that are plastic-free! Local craftsman items of high quality. Beautiful and stylish products that are sustainable, goods for you and good for the environment! Southern Norway’s first zero-waste shop. It is possible to grind your own flour, buy healthy snacks, or fill up on an array of different spices! Lots to see!

I was so excited when I heard Unwrapped was opening in my home town... Finally I don't have to order bamboo toothbrushes online any more! And I can buy my favorite staple products (quinoa, lentils, almonds, etc.) in bulk, with no plastic in sight! Needless to say, I love Unwrapped and have told many friends about it as well, so they too can choose eco-friendly products and learn how to zero down on their waste. Highly recommend this shop for the best environmental reasons, and also for the wonderful welcoming atmosphere and Megan's ever-friendly charm. As a vegan, I definitely have to recommend the tasty smoothies, salads, warm dishes and desserts at Prana Cafe as well. (Same locale as Unwrapped.) Try them, you'll love them! Especially since no animals were harmed in the making. Eat healthy and feel good! In an organic nutshell, you definitely want to visit Unwrapped at Torvgaten 7. And you'll be back again and again. :-)

Reviewed By Lcs00

Few places have this kind of a truly amazing experience. The service is excellent. The course is not to long, nor to short. Great variety in obstacles and challenges, making the entire experience great. A new consept with 3D glasses and neon lights that makes the mini-golf all that more enjoyable. Clean well kept environment and easily combined with food and drinks that is sold at the front desk. And a great lounge area to chill in between or after. This is a must to experience! Fits couples, friendgroups, first dates, families with young or older children and I would say almost all other people
