Overview

Our Oslo City Break has you staying at one of Oslo’s most popular properties, Amerikalinjen, and includes private transfer to/from the airport, a private guided tour (with the option of a Joachim Trier Oslo Trilogy-inspired trip), a trip out onto the fjords to discover the city from a different perspective, with the options to add on what suits you’re requirements.

The city is a perfect location to discover year-round and even include any stopovers you might have before heading further north.

Day by Day Itinerary

Day 1

Welcome to Oslo

Collect your private transfer from the airport and check in to your hotel, the Amerikalinjen, which will be your base for the next three nights.

In the evening why not head out and discover Territoriet – a cosy and intimate wine bar or head out for some cocktails at Svanen/D.G.Æ!

Day 2

Discover Oslo

Head out in the morning or afternoon on a private walking tour (or if you prefer to cover more territory in Oslo then a driving tour can be arranged). There is plenty to discover in Oslo, from the arts, architecture, film sets, books, and even ski slopes!

There is the Oslo Opera House to explore and we certainly recommend a visit to KOK – Oslo’s floating sauna.

In the evening we recommend dinner at Ekebergrestauranten which was used in Joachim Trier’s Oscar-nominated film The Worst Person in the World.

Day 3

Oslo Culture

The city is really yours to continue to explore and uncover – we recommend a visit to the MUNCH museum and also the National Museum (which officially opens in mid-June).

Perhaps you want to stray further afield and see the city from a different perspective in which case we recommend a hike out of the city with a guide to explore more of the city’s outskirts and stunning scenery or head out onto the stunning Oslofjord.

Day 4

Head home or extend your stay

Have the morning at leisure and prepare for your journey home – however, this doesn’t have to be the end of your trip. There is plenty more to discover in Norway – perhaps you might like to hop onto the famous train journey that takes you over ‘the roof of Norway’ to Bergen and experience the gateway to the fjords?

Just speak to our Nordic Experience Curators if you wish to tailor this trip and get advice on what you can do.

All reviews

I would thoroughly recommend this company. Their planning and advice was spot on. Alex responded to my calls and emails very promptly. I will definitely use them again for future trips.

Rosie

The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!

Sophie & Guy

We originally hired Off the Map Travel in 2020 to set up a trip to see the Northern Lights. That didn’t happen, thanks to COVID. But, we persisted and in March of 2023, we took a 16-day trip that included both Iceland and Norway. IT WAS MAGICAL! Off the Map took care of everything! We were pampered at every stage of our trip. The people they hired and the activities they planned added up to a trip that will set the standard for any we’ll ever take in the future. Alex and his team were fabulous! We recommend them without restraint!

Jim & Kris

Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.

Karen

I used OTMT to organise a holiday to see the Northern Lights for my partner’s 50th birthday. They took the time to understand my priorities, the kinds of places we like to stay and the things we like to do. They recommended a fabulous itinerary in Norway centred around the Lyngen Experience Lodge. The holiday itself lived up to expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending OTMT. They listened carefully during the planning and delivered the perfect present for my partner.

Alex

Off the Map Travel was great! Alex helped us plan the most amazing 10 day honeymoon to Iceland. He gave us great recommendations and was so patient with us during the planning process!
