This activity will end right where it started.
Greet your guide at a central Oslo location and listen to a short safety briefing before climbing onto your state-of-the-art bicycle. Cruise past Oslo’s beautiful National Theatre and the grand parliament building of Karl Johan’s gate, and then weave your way down ancient alleyways to Aker Brygge, an old shipyard that affords visitors wonderful views of the harbor. 

Travel onward at a leisurely pace through neoclassical neighborhoods replete with 18th-century houses adorned with vibrantly painted facades. Stop for a refreshing drink at Akershus Castle (own expense), a magnificent Renaissance fortress, and then glide past the Royal Palace to absorb the imperial majesty of the Norwegian royal family’s regal residence. 

Capture photographs of iconic venue, Oslo City Hall, the place in which the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony occurs, and then enjoy some leisurely free time to explore the verdant expanse of Frognerparken, an open-air exhibition of bronze and granite sculptures by acclaimed Norwegian sculptor, Gustav Vigeland. 

After three hours of exploration, return to your original departure point and bid your guide farewell.

Oslo Bike Tour

Pretty small group (7 of us) led by the friendly Niamh. Went around the city seeing a number of the typical tourist sites - highlight for me was the sculpture park. The level of cycling was such that anyone can do it - short distances between attractions so plenty of stops, and not many hills. After the tour Niamh gave us some recommendations on bars, which was appreciated. I’ve always enjoyed cycling round a new city and this was no exception.

Best way to see Oslo in a short time!

We had only 1 afternoon in Oslo so we booked this bike tour. Our lovely guide led us on the bike from the Viking bike shop downtown through the streets of Oslo. We visited all the important landmarks of Oslo including the old jail, the royal palace, the Vigeland Park, the National Thearter, the Nobel Peace Building, the pier. It really was the best way to see the city in just a short time (3 hours). It’s fun and safe to ride in Oslo. People walk, ride bike or scooters all over the city. Our guide was really nice, funny and knowledgeable. I apologize for not remember her name :( I really recommend this tour.

Bicycle ride was the perfect length...
lydia.alexander

Bicycle ride was the perfect length and group size of 12 was manageable. Our guide tried very hard to be patient with our bicycle skills traveling with my 3 boys ages 7, 9 and 15 as my younger children were initially nervous bicycling in a city and were so careful we slowed the whole group down. Oslo, by the way, is a very safe city to bicycle - very polite drivers who yield for pedestrians and cyclists. This is a great way to see the city as it gives a terrific overview and feeling for the city. Stops included Vigeland sculpture garden and the Royal palace as well as the Promenade and Fortress among others. Huge thumbs up from my kids who certainly preferred this over a walking tour!

Excellent trip around Oslo
silverstream2016
, Jun 2018
We were given good bikes (with baskets on back), and our tour leader - can’t recall her name, but she was excellent, explained the bikes, the street cycling etiquette, (basically none, you can go anywhere) and took us on a 3 hour journey which included many highlights. The sculpture park was amazing, the back streets of the more affluent residents of Oslo was great too. Nothing too strenuous.
