Oslo is the capital and largest city of Norway and is the gateway to Norway's most scenic areas. The city is located at the head of Oslo Fjord surrounded by forested ridges, lakes and hiking trails, yet full of the characteristics of a cosmopolitan and cultural metropolis.
A car hire will give you the chance to explore Oslo at your pace, from the culture and heritage to city parks, beaches and mountains. Book your car hire online and let DriveAway assist you in creating your own self-drive tour that fits you to your liking.

Aside from the spectacular nature that borders it, Oslo has an abundance of unique buildings, palaces, fortresses and churches plus over 50 museums and galleries, and you have access to all of them with your car hire. Visit the Royal Palace, the Oslo Cathedral and the Munch Museum to admire the works of Norway's most famous painter, Edward Munch. Take the family to the Norwegian Museum of Cultural History, one of Europe's largest open air museums and learn some of the local traditions and history. Go to the Holmenkollen Ski Museum and Tower, where 4000 years of skiing history is shown.
Your car hire can take you to the beautiful forest of Oslomarka which surrounds Oslo. Escape the big city bustle and drive your hire car to Drobak or Tonsberg, both picturesque seaside towns that are worth a visit in the summer. Fredrikstad is a pretty, old walled town not far from Oslo that has great street life in the warmer months. In winter there is great alpine and cross country skiing within the city limits, or you can drive further a-field to Hemsedal, Geilo or Beitostolen for pristine alpine skiing. The options are endless at any time of the year with your car hire in Oslo from DriveAway!
