Kon-Tiki Museet
Bygdøynesveien 36, 0286 Oslo, Norge 1 h 30 min
IndoorsIndoorsDaytimeRelaxed
The museum at Bygdøy showcases the original Kon-Tiki raft and the papyrus boat Ra II, alongside stories of Heyerdahl’s slightly mad expeditions across the world's oceans.
Why this works as a date
Small enough to see in an hour, and full of stories that provide natural conversation starters.
What to order
Take the ferry from Rådhusbrygga in the summer – the journey there is half the date. Combine it with the Frammuseet next door.
Best time to go
Morning, before the tour buses arrive.
Estimated total cost
NOK 300–400 for two
