THE SUBWAY SYSTEM AND STREET TRAMS

Using the subway and the street trams will take you to most of your destinations in Oslo and is quite fast and reliable. Oslo is a rather small city compared to other international destination. One can often tell this by the public transport system. They may not leave as often, and go as fast as in London or New York, but one need to remember that Oslo, in size, would only be a small fraction of these cities.

 

BUSES

There are several buslines going inside the city and between cities in Norway. Bus is fairly comfortable and one of the least expensive ways of getting around further distances. If you are on a budget, choosing the bus instead of planes and trains may save you a bundle if you want to travel between cities in Norway.

Within the city the majority of the buses are collecting passengers and taking them to major traffic hubs, where the passengers choose trams or subway instead.

TAXIES

Taxi may be the most comfortable way of getting around, but unfortunately also the most expensive. T

There are several different different taxicompanies and you should not choose your taxi with indifference since the prices may vary quite a bit. This is especially true on longer trips, at night time, and if you choose to use taxi from Oslo Airport Gardermoen since the fixed prices are very different depending on which taxi company you choose.
