What to expect

Prepare for Royal Oslo guided tour. From Viking kings to modern-day royalty, put on your smartest frock or gown and be swept away by the grandeur of royalty across Oslo.

Take your royal chariot (aka tram) east and return in time to Oslo's early days. Bow down to Harald III, the last Viking King and founder of Oslo, and walk through the ruins of the Old Town. Along the way, recount the city's glory days and the fire that destroyed most of it (ever wonder why The Royal Palace and city centre are located on either side of Oslo?).

From ruins to Renaissance, board the tram again and travel forward through time, greeting the Oslo Cathedral as you enter a new era. The host of Royal weddings, the Oslo Cathedral is a place of possibility. It's where a commoner became a Crown Princess in 2001. Floating down the street like dignitaries on a red carpet, approach Akershus Fortress. Roam the grounds, saluting the fortress over 700-year history of sieges, festivities, royal residences, and places of power. Continuing the regal theme, you bid farewell to Akershus Fortress in search of modern-day royals.

Learn about Norwegian theatrical "royalty" at The National Theatre and discover the man behind the main pedestrian street in Oslo on our procession toward our final destination, the home of the King and Queen of Norway, The Royal Palace. Let your guide introduce you to the King and Queen of Norway as you stroll through the park.
