Oslo City Tour - 4 hours <span><span><img alt="" src="https://www.msccroisieres.fr/-/media/global-contents/destinations/ports/norway/oslo/cruise-to-oslo-norway.jpg?bc=transparent&as=1&dmc=0&mh=537&mw=806&thn=0&mediamode=desktop&hash=E8A8559F8B0FBEEB9A9C79D82DE9401B11754834" /><br /> Drive through the center of Oslo, passing all of the main sights and highlights, including the Royal Palace and the Nobel Institute. View the City Hall, inaugurated in 1950 at Oslo's 900-year jubilee. Akershus Fortress, sitting boldly on the waterfront is today partly a museum and a military area.</span></span><br />  <br /> <span><span>Pass the Parliament Building before entering Karl Johan Street, named after the Swedish-Norwegian king in the early part of the 19th century. The oldest part of Oslo University, dating back to 1813, lines this street. It is famous for its interior decoration by the painter Edvard Munch.</span></span><br />  <br /> <span><span><span>You will also pass through attractive villa areas on the way to Vigeland Park. This enormous open-space was laid out in the first half of the 20th century by Norwegian sculptor Gustav Vigeland. Over a period of 30 years, he created his own world of human beings and animals from stone, iron and bronze. There are about 200 statue groups in all, which describe the course of human life from birth to death. The monolith, a 56-foot high granite block carved with 121 figures stands as the unequivocal centerpiece of this well-planned park.</span></span></span><br />  <br /> <span><span>On the Bygdøy Peninsula you will visit the <strong>Viking Ship Museum</strong>. It houses three authentic longboats dating from the Viking Age, around AD 900-1000, which were excavated from the mudbanks along Oslo fjord. The museum also holds a large collection of items found on board the ships, such as household goods, tools, jewelry and clothing.</span></span><br />   <table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Basis:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">Private tour.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Duration:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">4 hours.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Start / End:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">City center Hotel, address or Pier.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Vehicle:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">01<sup>st</sup> Class.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Guide:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">English-speaking.

The narrow 18th- and 19th-century streets lined with small wooden houses give the town an idyllic touch. On an island just outside Drøbak you can visit the fortress Oscarsborg.</span></span></span><br /> <span><span><span>The centre of Drøbak is the square Torget where you find the popular Tregaarden's Christmas House and Santa's Post Office. They have Norway's biggest permanent Christmas exhibition and a special Santa Claus post stamp. By the charming boat harbour there is also an Aquarium, with the world's only "lutefisk" museum, and Badeparken a little north of the centre is a great place for swimming.</span></span></span><br /> <span><span><span>From Sjøtorget there are regular ferries to the <strong>Oscarsborg Fortress</strong>. The trip takes 5 minutes.<br /> The construction of the fortress was finished in 1853. It got the name Oscarsborg when king Oscar I visited the fortress in 1855. The fortress has a proud and dramatic history and is best known for the sinking of the German heavy cruiser Blücher on 9 April 1940 during World War II. </span></span></span><br /> <span><span><span>Oscarsborg Fortress is a jewel in the Drøbak narrow. In summer, Oscarsborg is perfect for families and for those interested in nature, culture and history. Oscarsborg Fortress Museum presents the history of the place and organises guided tours. There are plenty of activities for children. A safari through the subterranean tunnels below the fortress, obstacle courses, bathing beaches and crab fishing.</span></span></span><br />   <table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Basis:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">Private tour.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Duration:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">5 hours.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Start / End:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">City center Hotel, address or Pier.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Vehicle:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">01<sup>st</sup> Class.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span lang="EN-US">Guide:</span></td> <td><span lang="EN-US">English-speaking.

It’s been said that guests sail with Azamara for the destinations, but come back for the staff and crew. And we couldn’t agree more. Whether you’re greeted with a cool towel, a warm smile, or a glass of sparkling wine after a rewarding day spent onshore, the staff and crew are always ready and waiting to welcome you home. Everyone from the captains to the dinner servers puts guests as their top priority. You’ll love the genial club-like atmosphere and the way the staff and crew get to know you. And you’ll feel the same friendliness with your fellow voyagers.

Shipboard Policies

Medical Emergencies
Due to the nature of travel by sea and the ports visited, the availability of medical care onboard the Vessel and in ports of call may be limited or delayed and medical evacuation may not be possible from the vessel while at sea or from every location to which Azamara sails.
Pregnancy Policy
Azamara cannot accept guests who will be 24 weeks or more into their pregnancy at any time during the sailing. If you are pregnant, a physician's "Fit to Travel" note is required prior to sailing. The note must state how far along (in weeks) the pregnancy will be at the time of sailing, and confirming that the guest is in good health and not experiencing a high-risk pregnancy. The "Fit to Travel" note must be faxed to the Access Department at 954-628-9622. Guest must also carry a copy of the note while onboard the vessel.
Smoking Policy
Azamara ships have a designated smoking area, located on the starboard forward section of the pool deck. The smoking area is clearly marked. For the comfort and health of all guests, all other areas of the ships are nonsmoking. This includes public rooms, restaurants, pool decks, staterooms and suites, verandas and halls.
