OSLO Oslo is probably the least "norwegian" city of the entire Norway, as it is big and quite chaotic. Anyway, it worth a visit, because of the nice parks and the interesting museums. GO |
 |
FROM OSLO TO BERGEN CRUISING THE SOGNEFJORD Although Oslo and Bergen are connected by frequent flights lasting just one hour, it worth to afford this 14 hours trip by train over one of the world's most scenic railways, followed by a relaxing cruise into Sognefjord, one of the Norway's deepest fjord. GO |
