We're back with our Oslo Travel Guide! This one is definitely worth the wait as we explore this beautiful Norwegian city.
Oslo is one of the most beautiful cities in the world...and also one of the most expensive! But as we explain in this episode, there's a reason for Oslo's costs. Great food, beautiful scenery, friendly people...Oslo has it all!
Thanks to our friends at VisitOSLO for their help with our Oslo episode. For updated information on events, attractions, restaurants and bars, head to www.visitoslo.com. Need assistance while visiting the city? The Oslo Visitor Centre by the central station is open every day of the year.

I don't think it's fair that your videos are not top trending, you are amazing Mr, Hunter.
We do pretty well in natural search but thank you for your kind words :-)
Visited Oslo a week ago for the first time. And I couldn't agree more, it's a seriously underrated city. I will soon return, to this pearl of the north!
Yeah, I was impressed too.
Attaché just got back from there, too. Such a beautiful city/country. I was lucky, I have Norge friends who took care of me the whole time. 🙂 I would go back again to norway. No doubt.
Too many immigrants. Oslo doesn't feel like a Norwegian city anymore.
I suppose you live there, "Dovenpeis"? Or are you one of those from outside the city whom hates it because you see scary news from there?
I don't mind scary news, I mind immigrants.
This video gets my like just for the fact that he recommended viewers take the train rather than fly, if possible. That's a very good start. And the city guide itself is very nice also.
I was in Oslo last week. And I still love it.
It's a great city for sure.
Noah Bowie i live there and i think it sucks
@@Griffhuth I'll trade places with you.
Looks incredibly safe and clean, but a little "grey" and dreary. I'd still definitely visit though and am sure I'd have a great time there
You look a little grey and dreary
Every time I see your videos I get convinced to drop my life in New York city and go to one of these cities. You cover these places very well.
Nature with Attaché is my new favourite segment
Another piece of brilliance by Greg.
I was literally thinking about when you guys would drop a new episode... and then BAM! :D
BAM!
My tipping protocol is the best. I take a fistful of whatever the highest denomination coin I can find is, heave it into the air, and yell "SCATTER!" before running out of the place giggling like a schoolgirl.
Controversial but effective.
This might be one of the best comments we've had.
i think you are referring to jews which are virtually non existent in oslo
By far my favourite travel guide on UA-cam
That's very kind, thanks!
@@attachetravel I agree, please keep up the good work, I'm glad you liked my two favourite places in the world (Oslo + Tokyo) 😋
Has been waiting on more travel guides and i'm not disappointed.
Thanks Oliver!
Oslo is my favourite scandinavian capital!
It's a fantastic city for sure.
I'm from Oslo, but I love Copenhagen and Stockholm more.
@@MrJBacon Hey since you are from Oslo, maybe you can give me some tips on how to visit it on a budget? I recently made this travel guide but I think I can do better than this ua-cam.com/video/49HcUaxHyh4/v-deo.html
I've just come back from my very first Euro-trip solo and I'm already considering a Scandinavia and Nordic trip next year. This has been an amazing help, thank you heaps 😁👍🏼
We've had Oslo, Stockholm and Copenhagen. I think I speak for everyone when I say we need an attaché in Helsinki!
Great video! Your guides are always appreciated. As an Oslo-citicen, i would like to add a couple of things about alcohol prices: Yes, in general prices on alcohol are extremely high. But if you know a little bit about it, it won't be as bad as you think. For example, Norwegians usually drink alcohol bought from stores either at home or at parks (though public drinking actually is forbidden). This is considerably cheaper than buying at a restaurant or bar. One 0.5 litre of Ringnes (plain Norwegian pilsner) can cost you up to 80-90 kroner at a bar. Buy the same beer in a grocery store and you get it for around 25 kroner.
Also, there are bars with much better prices. For cheap beer i reccomend these two: Samfunnet Bislet (40 kroner for a 0.5 pilsner) and Fyrhuset Kuba.
Such a great city, was there in knee deep snow in January and had an absolute ball, especially in the frozen lakes and mountainous regions that surrounds it in the outskirts
It must be absolutely stunning in winter. Cold but stunning.
Love the return to the classic format. While I always enjoy your videos, I feel like you're at your best when your sense of humour shines through and it's not as serious. And it's always good to know how much the Big Mac will cost wherever you go.
Thanks Jonny, we have fun putting the show together. We try to pick a format that is most suitable for the city we're featuring. Even after 30 episodes we're still tinkering but feedback like yours really helps us refine our format. Thank you.
I'm Norwegian, and I've been to Oslo many times before but -- I'm here alone for the first time in my life. This video was extremely helpful, and I was able to see some amazing things!
Tips for anyone visiting, go to the Oslo Pier and get a churro -- they're amazing! Also, ask for a tour at the chocolate factory, and you might be lucky and get a free tour like I did!
Man I LOVE this Channel! Thank you Attaché Team! Glad there’s a new content, as always, learned a lot from this new episode. Cheers!
Thanks Rolando!
A nature show on this channel would be absolutely fantastic
Finally!!! Was wondering where you guys were......Go Norway!!!!
Filming lots of episodes, that's where we were!
Attaché - I wonder if or when PBS, HBO, Amazon or another broadcasting company will pick you guys up. Perhaps you don't want that. You are a UA-cam treasure.
We have so far turned down approaches from traditional and online networks. We prefer to be independent for the time being.
Attaché - Right on.
Alex you made us wait damn long for this. I'd love to see Istanbul turkey. The place has a very rich culture in every way.
We have several episodes in the can. We decided to film a lot of episodes and then edit them all. Makes it easier on us.
I used to live in Oslo and Trondheim and the cities were really expensive compared to what it was in the old days.
These videos are amazing! Entertaining, informative and well produced. They cover everything we need for our Scandinavian adventure. Thanks from the land down under.
Proud to be from Norway! Great video, thanks!
I'm glad we could do your wonderful country justice!
Thanks for visiting and for a fair and balanced review, and not only doing the super touristy stuff like Holmenkollen or the castle.
Nice episode! Good combination of forest, fjord and city. Thanks!
Jizzed my pants when I saw you uploaded
I....thanks?
😂
I live in Oslo, and yes I know it is super expensive compared to the rest of Europe. But what people don’t think about is that Norwegian wages are one of the highest in the world. When tourists come here, it is more expensive for them, because they don’t earn as much as Norwegians do.
It was really interesting watching this video on how you experienced my country and my Oslo. I feel so extremely proud of this little kingdom when you talked about the friendly people, green airport, good social systems etc, and i literally held my breath when you were going to say how much that glass of beer cost! hahah! Even norwegians think it is expensive here. Thats why norway (except oslo) dont have a massive culture of wining and dining outside at night, like the rest of europe. Thank you for visiting Oslo. You should definately visit the West of norway. Because that is really the essence of our country. Mountains, waterfalls, trolls and little cities.
Always a pleasure watching, one for the bucket list!
Thanks!
At last! Was wondering where the heck you guys are. A well-written narrative and many beautiful shots of Oslo. Amazing work, as usual. Love your work guys!
We've been filming lots of episodes back to back. Thanks for the kind words about this episode!
Alex Hunter, you are a very great writer!!! If the script was written by you.
This is the best travel guide I've seen about Oslo. Good job!
Booked my flights this morning, thank you for such an informative video! So excited to go next spring! ♥️
Another amazing guide guys!
Thanks so much Spencer!
what a great video, you guys are really evolving your style and finish, thanks for your hard work
Thanks so much! We're always trying new things, trying to evolve the format etc.
Dying Fetus is an American death metal band 🤣. That being said, your travel videos are some of the best I've ever watched. Very informative without being lame and touristy. Keep up the good work!
I'm so glad to have you guys back. :) Oslo is such a beautiful city. Actually the whole Norway is magical. :)
Thanks, it's great to be back!
Thank you for giving Oslo the love it deserves!!!
You guys are a great medium between Rick Steves who explains everything, and Anthony Bourdain to explains nothing.
DYING FETUS IS DEATH METAL THOUGH!!!
BEST VIDEO OF OSLO OUT DEHHH
And from 'Murica
Off to Oslo in May to see Nick Cave and your vlog the first we found...love it! Thanks Alex. Your presenting style combining personable info and original takes on what to experience the perfect intro. Now subscribed :-)
everything public seemed to work when i went there - and i had the most relaxing time. maybe living there would be the same.
Yeah it feels like a very well run city.
Way to go Alex, almost 100k subs. Keep it up. I want to see 1 million!
1 million would be nice!
Fantastically well-produced video. I actually learned a lot about my own city.
I love Oslo hope i will go there someday
You forgot to mention the Color Line ferries, which run everyday b/w Kiel (Germany) and Oslo. Probably the most beautiful (but also expensive) way to enter the city :D
thanks for the tip !
... and also the ferry between Hirtshals (Denmark) and Oslo ;)
There is no ferry between Hirtshals and Oslo (anymore). But there is ferries to/from Fredrikshavn and Copenhagen.
Great tip, thanks!
Oslo
You must be spending a fortune as well. with the money you could have spend better.
Very helpful, thanks!
Your video is great and informative. I have been there last year for a short while. Fram Polar Ship Museum , Kon-Tiki Museum, Vigeland Sculpture Park, Norwegian museum of cultural history and wandering at Karl Johans Gate(Street). These are the must do things in Oslo.
Hey! I’m sorry, I’m trying to find the app you mentioned in the video for purchasing transportation tickets. Do you recall the name?
Brian Velez ‘Ruter Billett’
very detailed guide....great to know before heading to Norway!
Excellent review! Greetings from Stavanger!
Thanks! You live in a wonderful city!
Love the detailed information about transportation. I feel like it's so basic and yet the #1 thing I'm looking for from travel guides. so THANK YOU! can you also add the link of the public transport app that you recommend. Keep the travel guides coming!
Dying Fetus is actually an American death metal band!
GREAT VIDEO . very informative and very entertaining. I love Oslo . I want to go there some time
It's a great city, you should definitely check it out.
Attaché . sure . I will . it's just across the North sea from where I live . I live in London
I was forced to live in Oslo for 3 months once and almost died of depression. Weird people. Just visiting might leave a different impression.
It's interesting how you ended talking about the people- to me they were they strangest part of Oslo lol. The residents were unbelievably beautiful and that stuck out to me be bigtime, but they were also very awkward to talk with a weren't really helpful due to the awkwardness. The city itself is beautiful, everything is upscale and it's like if the Upper Eastside Manhattan was an entire city. I barely saw much middle class stuff, let alone lower class part of town. Everyone who lived there seemed to want to leave though, that was also noticeably strange.
Great discovery ! For sure i'm going to subscribe !
Thanks Camille!
I love your channel. It seems like you mostly visit major cities that are well known in the world but you should visit my town, which is Cracow, Poland. Very underestimated city in Eastern Europe. A lot of my American friends came and they were amazed. Very easy, cool and cheap city. I hope you will come there one day and make a video of it.
I second this! Great city, and cheap af too!
This was a really well-made and informative video
You're so close to 100k, Keep it up!
Almost there! Tell your friends!
a very charming city 😃 greetings from Croatia
So helpful! Thank you!!
Yay! A new episode
w00t!
8:45 one bite and philosophy comes out!! 🔥
GREAT Movie! As an answer to your very last (ok.. rhetorical) question: a slightly cheaper beer. ;) Jokes aside, after Oslo and Copenhagen I hope Stockholm is up next!
Ha, yeah the price of a beer definitely stings a bit.
Can't wait to go to Oslo in 2 months. Also mentions Black Metal and show a flyer for a Death Metal band from Baltimore.
It's a great city for sure.
Tipping in Norway is absolutely NOT neccessary AT ALL! However, if you feel the waiter/waitress made the experience that much better, then you can give a small extra :)
Like always you rock mate..😊
Thanks so much!
amazing video dude!
respect
Please do Stockholm next. It’s such a great city!
It's on the list for sure!
Are you good looking roosters still doing a New York City Burroughs episode that was promised when you did Manhattan? Much love from Australia
Great question
great video. some of the best.
Thanks for the video guys! Your travel guide's always inspire me to adventure new places.
Super movie !!! Regards from Oslo :)
Nice video attaché 👍🏻
i love your travel guides so much you should come to Nairobi
Amazing channel. Please keep it up.
Love all your videos man🤘🤗 when are you going to São Paulo?🇧🇷
Please do Tallinn!!!
That's a great idea, thanks!
Nice video, keep on!
Thanks!
Nice! going in October
Enjoy!
Planning next after seeing this😃
Definitely visit, it's a wonderful place.
Very interesting!
Great episode! I am put off Oslo by the price of beer though...
Yeah it definitely stings when they give you the bill.
Many norwegians travel across the border to Sweden to buy alcohol.
why do you not do Edinburgh as video?
dude needs to come to Melbourne, heaps of food, art, no tipping but shit public transport
Super vidéo 👍
Thanks!
dont take flytoget just take regular nsb its half the price and almost just as fast
blackdogairways flytoget is actually cheaper if you’re a teen or student
Flytoget is 6 kr cheaper, but the NSB/Ruter ticket will also function as a regular bus/metro/tram ticket once you reach your destination and it lasts 2,5 hours or so. Unless your destination is in walking distance of the sentral station dont take Flytoget.
2,5 hours??? it takes 46 minutes from oslo with flytoget, 48 with nsb
He meant that the ordinary train ticket has an onward travelling right for 2.5 hours on local public transportation in Oslo, Qwerty.
great...thanks
Thanks for watching!
beautiful video! Beautiful country! I am from Uruguay; I would like to live in country like Norway: No homeless, no hungry people, no high crime rates...
It's a beautiful country for sure.
There are plenty of homeless people in Oslo. Mostly because of the open border policy with the EU, but still, there are a lot of Eastern-European gypsy beggars sleeping, pissing and defecating in the streets of Oslo, with all the usual crime that follows them everywhere they go. Not so much during winter, though.
You are describing most of Europe, just saying. Just consider the rest of Europe does not have 6-month long winters with temperatures touching -25C.
Yes, but there are also Norwegian homeless in Oslo.
Amazing 😍
What's the name of the island you were on ? I'm going to Oslo next week and was planning to visit one of the islands but don't know which one is worth checking out
Nice review, though Oslo is quite a mid-sized airport. I would only call it small in comparison to LHR, FRA or CDG. It's bigger than most capital airports in Europe
Love the interview integration.
Oslo before Stockholm and Prag? Omg! ;)
Prague is so overrated
Hahaha ehm no. London is.
51TGM71, Copenhagen!
Oslo much nicer than Stockholm
In what planet?
I leave my best fattest goat tied to the nearest pole to the restaurant as tip. months of cheese, milk, and fur. A fair tip
