Oslo, Bergen, and the Fjords

Narrated by Rick Steves

30 minutes; European Travel Guide

We find that Norway’s seafaring past lives on in Oslo as we boat across the harbor and explore remnants of ocean adventure from Viking Eric the Red to Thor Heyerdahl of Kon Tiki fame. The Nazi Resistance Museum chronicles Norway’s brave stance in World War II and a mammoth ski jump beckons the super-skilled. We ride the scenic rails over Norway’s mountainous spine and cruise a fjord as part of the “Norway in a Nutshell” route. Finally, in Bergen we stroll the Hanseatic quarter, discovering links to the city’s past.
