We planned this visit on our last day in Oslo. The Oslo marathon was happening so it was super busy all around. This museum is terrific, providing the history of the prize and then several exhibits f… Full review by JLandMike

We did most of our sight-seeing in Oslo on foot, as I think is the norm. A car there is more of a hindrance than a help, as local public transportation will get you pretty much everywhere you need and is reasonably priced. Check out the 24-hour "Oslo Pass" which allows you to use every thing from the Metro to water taxis for free. If you approach Oslo this way, I doubt you will need to look for parking.
Is it possible to purchase tickets to the Nobel Peace Center online or it has to be done at the place?

We sent five days in Oslo, and the Oslo pass was not worth it for us, as we rarely used public transport (Oslo is a very walkable city) and the price of the pass exceeded the entry to all the museums we went to. And we went to many. The Nobel Peace Center is not crowded. You can buy your ticket at the door and will not have to wait. When we visited, a big school group was checking in ahead of us and even then we only waited less than five minutes.
We'll be making a trip to Scandinavia soon (Sweden, Norway and Denmark), and we are meaning to visit the Nobel Museum in Stockholm. Considering that, should we also visit this museum/peace center? Are the museums alike or do we have things to learn from both? Having limited time, although it does seem very interesting and appealing, I would appreciate advice from people who have been to both places. Thanks :)

I feel that the nobel peace museum is a very important place to visit. The other awards are nice but the prize for attempting to bring Peace between people must be considered as the most important. Its a most humbling experience, at times difficult and not particular uplifting as you hear about what certain faction will do to their neighbours. AS mentioned in my review June 17, my wife became so overwhelmed at some of the heartbreaking video stories of the children's lives - we had to leave. If nothing else the visit to the center in Stockholm is far more uplifting - but after Oslo seems pretty but almost irrelevant.
