To make the experience magical, your guide also introduces you to beloved stories from Norwegian folklore. You’ll hear about Julenissen (the Norwegian Santa Claus), mischievous trolls said to roam on Christmas Eve, and even the tradition of the Christmas log, explained during the tour. The walk also includes a cosy moment when your guide reads aloud a classic Norwegian Christmas fairy tale from a traditional storybook.
The walk concludes at Oslo’s enchanting Christmas Market, where twinkling stalls overflow with crafts, gifts, and seasonal cheer. Here you’ll sample smultringer (Norwegian Christmas doughnuts), a piece of kransekake (almond ring cake), and sip a warm cup of non-alcoholic gløgg. To round it all off, each guest receives a festive holiday gift as a keepsake of the season.
With festive flavours, iconic landmarks, and enchanting myths and legends, Julefeiring: Oslo Christmas Walking Tour offers a heartwarming blend of education, tradition, and seasonal magic.
