travelstamp Posted July 4 #1 Share Posted July 4 I disembark in Oslo and have four (4) days until I embark on a TA from Amsterdam. How many days would you recommend spending the extra days? I have been to Amsterdam recently and have seen quite alot there. Any recommendations for both or one of the ports? Happy 4th!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted July 4 #2 Share Posted July 4 If you have seen Amsterdam, the obvious choice would be to stay in Oslo. Make sure you fly to Amsterdam the day before your sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHeartCruising Posted July 4 #3 Share Posted July 4 I also would fly into Amsterdam the day before your Amsterdam departure. You can do a few more things in Amsterdam that day/nigth and the next day before boarding your ship. Whatever time that leaves you with, use it to explore Oslo.

CruiserBruce Posted July 4 #4 Share Posted July 4 Also...be aware that there are several dock locations possible in Amsterdam, or surrounding areas. Maybe deciding where spend the night before your cruise may consider that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisatsu Posted July 5 #5 Share Posted July 5 You can see quite a lot of Oslo in 3 days, depending on your interests, which would give you a comfortable buffer before the Amsterdam embarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ontheweb Posted July 5 #6 Share Posted July 5 Both are great cities, but Amsterdam presently seems to be saying they want less tourists. I have not heard anything similar said by Oslo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the tourism bureau did just put out a viral ad asking why anyone would want to come here 😉 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Roger Posted July 14 #9 Share Posted July 14 ...so should we visit or no. Well, at the end of the video it said: "Visit Oslo". Funny 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nordicacres Posted July 14 #10 Share Posted July 14 I personally wouldn’t spend the entire time in Oslo. I’m sure it’s a lovely city to live in, but the rest of Norway is much more interesting and scenic. You could take the train to Finse or Flam, or even continue to Bergen. The countryside and the fjords are lovely! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeW Posted July 25 #11 Share Posted July 25 If you get a chance, visit the Kon Tiki Museum in Oslo. Especially if you have read the Thor Heyerdahl books about the Pacific Islands. And Oslo Pass gives you a lot of places to see for one price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
