Babbo Collective Parkveien

Babbo Collective's small cafe branch at Parkveien 80 in Vika works just as well for relaxed mornings as it does for social evenings. During the day, you can drop by for great pastries, fresh bread with butter and cheese, open bagels, and omelets, or simply enjoy a properly good cup of coffee. They offer both indoor seating and outdoor seating when the weather permits, but because it is almost always full, it is a good idea to book a table in advance if possible. As the day transitions into evening, the vibe shifts toward social gatherings, natural wines, and comforting pasta dishes when dinner service is on. Price levels are moderate, and it is an ideal spot in Vika whenever you want great food and a welcoming atmosphere without any fuss.

Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology

Spread across spacious halls at Kjelsås, the Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology covers engineering, industry, science, and medicine. Here you can explore historical exhibits featuring everything from a real mummy and vintage photographs to a large train you can actually walk inside.

The Science Center makes the visit interactive and fun for both kids and adults, allowing you to get hands on with physics, light, and mechanics. Once inside, it is remarkably easy to spend several hours without noticing the time fly by. Adult tickets cost around 170 to 190 NOK, with discounted options for children, students, and families.

Munch Museum

Located in Bjørvika, you will find the Munch Museum. It might not be the most pretty building and has received its share of hate for its exterior, but it is what is on the inside that counts, right? Once you step inside, it is really well done, with art spread across thirteen floors. Here you can explore Edvard Munch's life work through famous masterpieces like The Scream, Madonna, and The Girls on the Bridge. Since Munch created several versions of The Scream in different mediums, the museum rotates which version is on display to protect the artwork from light. On the top floors you can grab a coffee or a drink while taking in views of the Oslofjord and the city. You decide how much time you want to spend walking through the galleries. Standard tickets cost around 160 to 200 NOK, while entry is free for anyone under eighteen. It is a great spot to bring visiting guests, enjoy a quiet Sunday with family, or simply visit on your own or with a friend.
