Norwegian culture shock story: I visited Norway last October. My mind was blown by the scenery, the beauty, the amazing museums. Got to jump off the top of a sauna into the Oslo fjord, met some random 80 year old named Hans with sparkling blue eyes on a magical hike, went to the top of some snowy moutains in Tromso, took the train to Bergen, went on some cool fjord cruises, etc etc and whenever I would chat with a Norwegian I would say "omg your country is so amazing!" and they would ARGUE with me that it was not that great, and that many other places were much better. At first I was like wtf, but it happened so much I realized it was just a cultural thing lol to be humble. Anyway, great travel experience 10/10 no notes!
Vel vi lever her så mye av det mange turister finner fasinerende og nesten magisk er for mange av oss hverdag og helt vanlig. Tviler på at du ser mange måpende nordmenn på en båtreise i Geirangerfjorden, det er en fjord og det er høye fjell.
To all the comments about expensive and high prices: The Norwegian Krone (NOK) has gone to shits lately, so it is not as bad for foreigners anymore! 😂🎉 Good time for a visit! 👍
YES! Right after the ad I immediately went to see if it was even attainable for us! Great news for us Americans right now 😹 I have ALWAYS wanted to go to Norway (and frankly, live there). Woohoo! 🎉
Exactly, coming from Switzerland I was surprised how much cheaper it is now. I remember 10 years ago and it was obscene. Not it’s cheaper than most major capitals in Europe and US. Still not cheaper, but totally normal compared to a major European city. (But don’t recommend coming to Switzerland, here only got worse and CHF is super appreciated).
I was in Oslo for two days last Feb and I did the EXACT SAME as in this video - swimming in the middle of the city, walking across the whole city, eating at the restaurant with no reservation, and THE SCREAM for sure. 10/10. Next time, in summer with a thicker wallet. Please don't change.
I was honestly surprised that in US there is a lot of places, where you need a reservation, like I look at the place, it's half empty and doesn't even look like something fancy and you come there and "do you have a reservation?", did I even need one??
Not really. This is all filmed in specific areas of the city center recently built as a vanity project in the middle of the day when people are at work or something. Doesn't show the beggars at every subway stop or the drug addicts at the train station or the dealers of a certain complexion along the river
@@16m49x3 Jesus the utter blatant lies in your comment is hilarious. Oslo isn't what this idiot says, if you walk around the city center or Bycicle it's pretty much like this advert. Never felt safer in a city and getting into places or getting a table for a meal is as simple as this advert often times. Don't believe these racist hate filled garbage comments.
@@16m49x3True, but that isn’t stuff that you will put on a channel that is trying to create tourism obviously. They will always try to paint the destination from its best angle.
@@16m49x3 I've been there so many times but didn't notice. Beggars - maybe, especially on the way from the Railway Station to the city centre. But other than that looks great. And even if something is not ideal it looks much better to me than most of other EU cities. I personally see Oslo literally the same way as this video shows. And that's why after so many visits I'm relocating. Maybe I'll change my mind after that, but hopefully not :)
A brilliant ad. It epitomizes the two weeks I spent in Norway last spring Oslo and the rest of the country is beyond amazing. Looking forward to another trip back everything he said was what I experienced and more.
0:44 seeing prime minister just by walking around the corner, has to be the biggest sign of that country's corruption-free status.. i envy that as a turkish citizen: when leader of turkey move from point a to point b, there will be a convoy of cars choppers vehicles streaching as Oslos length, and turkey's corruption level shows that
No corruption you say? (Honestly pretty mild but still) The government/states loves buying reports too save money, that cost 10.000$. just too find out they need 10.000$
I was lucky enough to visit Oslo for 1.5 months last year and I’ve been telling people it’s my favorite city ever since. This video is the PERFECT encapsulation of everything I loved about it. Literally started googling “what jobs are in demand in Oslo” right after watching this 😂. Love the humor too.
"I grew up here and... I temporarily live here" - and he's 31 !! LOL And the next great moment is right after that when he says "Unfortunately" while he doesn't register the beauty in front of him !! Hahahah... Great job people, great job! Been watching this for few days and can't get bored! And at the end, about the relationship, should it be easy or not... ?? Who did this masterpeace?
Absolutely brilliant!! I was in Norway in 1990, adored Oslo, adored Norway and the friendly Norwegians. Now I am in love with Halfdan and his wonderfully blasé, sardonic attitude! 🤩 No worries, Halfdan, I'm old enough to be your American grandma. 😁
I have watched this “Anti-Tourist” ad at least 10 times and laugh each time. Have forwarded it to Nordic friends. Forwarded it to my sibs who are going to Oslo this fall. It’s hysterical. And guess what…on my visit to Oslo three years ago I did go around a corner (walking to my hotel) and in the square were a lot of police on horses…and a small crowd. In the middle of the crowd was the prime minister!
Oh, was not aware of that. I thought he said it to put a stark contrast to his experience in Oslo, as Istanbul is very big and crowded. But this reference is subtle, haha.
I visited Oslo this July, and the weather was amazing. It’s such a beautiful city. Norway is so stunning that I definitely want to go there with my future husband for our honeymoon. 💕
Idk man 😂 I get the bad Architecture joke but I see all of China's new tech and fashion & it all looks like American Instagram aesthetics and fashion 😂 China's students literally came to study in USA cause it's easy for them, they saw all the kids in Bright white Nikes, and all the American trends. Now all their new Architecture looks like bright white iPhone batteries 😂 All their children even dress like American Instagrammers We literally watch the globe laugh at us ,or call us fat, WHILE being dressed like American music trends and fashion and influences😂 And it's always all late too!
I love this ad. I visited Oslo a few years ago and was honestly really surprised by the city, which is rather lovely with a wonderful atmosphere. I hope to be back to spend a little more time there in future.
This came up on my home page randomly. 0 regrets. Londoner here, would absolutely love to visit Oslo sometime! I think Norway's got some beautiful traits about it, just never taken the time to actually visit!
People always complain about Scandis not having a sense of humour. What they don't realise, is that Scandi humour is often extremely subtle, ironic and dead-pan. Jokes won't go over your head, they'll flow through you like a spectre, leaving you confused and weirded out 😂
I've a Finnish friend. Thirty years ago, he once said "Laugh, don't smile. Hah Hah Hah..." with a perfectly serious straight face. I still wake up at night trying to figure out what it means🙃
I've been to Oslo, and it is indeed expensive. I've walked halfway across Izmir at night, and it was perfectly safe, bustling and cheap. Amsterdam the city where I felt the least safe. Excellent commercial! I've been sharing it to people who have been, and people who are planning to go.
@@maksymushka Hello Mr or Ms Maksymushka. The easily guessable reasons. I'll remove the comment, since it implies that I think Amsterdam is unsafe. Just the least safe of any of the cities that I have visited. But that is relative. I have never set foot in the States, nor do I plan to, because of its reputation as an unsafe country.
@@maksymushka There are people living there who are in desperate circumstances and commit crimes. There are everywhere, I suppose. But I never felt unsafe in Moscow, for example. I've never travelled outside of my home country, Europe, and then Moscow outside Europe.
Coming from NYC, I can’t tell you just how much I love this ad :). And it actually DOES make me want to visit Oslo now. Like it made me genuinely curious. :)
The focus on Radison Blu hotel at the end is so nicely done and feels quite authentic. If I didn't work in marketing, I would have thought it wasn't done intentionally ;)
Oslo is beautiful. I’ve been there and enjoyed every minute. People do complain about the high prices, but I assume Norwegians make commensurate pay so it isn’t expensive for them. The food options were most impressive. We ate at a Turkish-Italian place which was so good we went twice.
Now I am anxious that this commercial is so convincing that Oslo will become a tourist destination and be overcrowded and exclusive like Paris or New York
This won't be the case because the tourists come in July, which so happens to be the month that Norwegians leave the country for the summer. Thus, there is no net gain in crowdiness.
1:23 Love that Halfdan was playing CHESS on his phone! Norway boasts the most powerful man in the world: Magnus Carlson. Also, recently, the world youth champion.
None of us want to feel at home when abroad, so personally i would love such a place. 3 decades back it looked similar, a bit darker but certainly lively. With so much elapsed, would love to visit again. Drobak, Tofte , the Fjords and much more….
I just returned from this magnificent Ho-hum village and felt like crying when I had to leave. I must be one low class snob as I keep returning as often as I can.
Faktisk en genial reklame , og veldig dristig ! Pluss at dere lager en slags karikatur av norske "anti pompøse tendenser" , hvor det grenser til å rakke ned på seg selv .... Bra jobba folkens, ett friskt pust
Muy cierto. Al principio uno piensa: Noruega? Y luego 😱😱😱😱 !!! Wao!! La ciudad es maravillosa. De hecho acá en mi canal grabe un pequeño video sobre mis impresiones en Oslo por primera vez.
5-10 years ago I wouldn't have recommended Oslo as a tourist destination (lived here my entire life), but now I totally would. Especially in the summer half of the year, or let's say, late april to early october.
At Aker Brygge yesterday, our family of four walked right into Jarmann Gastropub for a great fish and chips lunch and ASIA for a fabulous dinner just as explained in the ad - and we are not even famous 😊. We almost went hungry at some other countries because we did not have reservations.
I had two traineeships in Oslo almost 50 years ago, and I visited it later. The only think I do not like is the new Munch Museum, the old one was more appropriate for. I would visit Oslo again, because of the city itself and the commercial, quite successful. Yes, and I met the King on the streets.
I visited Oslo once and tried to find a place to set up my tent as it was camping trip. It got dark before we found somewhere appropriate but we could just about make out a grassy looking peninsula so we headed there and just set up the tent behind some bushes. When we awoke we discovered from some signs that we were in fact camping in the royal palace grounds. Try that literally anywhere else in the world. Gotta love them Scandis.
Go there in winter, take T-bane (Oslo Metro) to Frognerseteren and go down Korketrekkeren 😃 I had a great time in Oslo ♥️ Selv om nordmenn ville ikke snakke norsk med meg 😅 Hilsener fra Østerrike!
Beautiful city ! Almost any place is 10 minutes from beautiful woods and in Summer so weird to have a walk inside them at 4 am or 10 pm without a lantern. Is not a city, is not a village, it is Oslo ! Nothing like it.
I think this is the best tourism commercial I’ve ever seen.
And yes, it makes me want to visit Oslo.
It is a "greatest hits" of venues/attractions (that we enjoyed last year) and entirely truthful. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
Autechre are playing in September!!
Me too.
Wait till you see what things cost.
Really? You didn't see Go Vilnius ad right?😂

Dritt lei av Oslo
The beginning splashes were pretty funny 😂
I visited Oslo once and tried to find a place to set up my tent as it was camping trip. It got dark before we found somewhere appropriate but we could just about make out a grassy looking peninsula so we headed there and just set up the tent behind some bushes.
When we awoke we discovered from some signs that we were in fact camping in the royal palace grounds.
Try that literally anywhere else in the world. Gotta love them Scandis.
Go there in winter, take T-bane (Oslo Metro) to Frognerseteren and go down Korketrekkeren 😃
I had a great time in Oslo ♥️
Selv om nordmenn ville ikke snakke norsk med meg 😅
Hilsener fra Østerrike!
I didn't even know where is Oslo. Now I am searching for Oslo tourist visa.
I laughed at the King part. It was so funny for some reason. 😅😂😂
I never considered visiting Oslo until I saw this video
best tourism ad ive seen 😂
This is some great marketing.
Finally, a good commercial in a long time.
I agree with you entirely. It's a horrid place where roaches won't go near. lol
Briljant!!!! Ek gaan nou MOET Oslo besoek. 🤦
Whoever created this must get a raise 👏👏👏
Beautiful city ! Almost any place is 10 minutes from beautiful woods and in Summer so weird to have a walk inside them at 4 am or 10 pm without a lantern. Is not a city, is not a village, it is Oslo ! Nothing like it.
