Car Hire Tonsberg - Mini guide to Tonsberg

Visiting Norway requires a visit to Tonsberg, its oldest documented town. No one knows exactly when it was founded but records go back to around 871, before King Harald Fairhair used the town as a royal coronation site. If traveling from Oslo (your most likely travel point), the only way to get to Tonsberg is either by train or car hire. There is no bus service from Oslo. It does not matter how you choose to get to Tonsberg, just that you spend time taking in the scenery. Tonsberg is best to visit during the summertime, taking in its day and nightlife. Once there, you may choose to continue or obtain car hire services because although it takes 3 hours to glance at everything the historic town has to offer, many of Norway’s most spectacular tourist attractions are just a short trip away.

Although Tonsberg is in the midst of commercial expansion, it still offers small town charms and a rich history. A car hire can take you to Slottsfjellet, a 12th century fortress just north of the city centre. With Viking graves and museums a short trip away, you may choose to take in all the cultural sites Tonsberg and the surrounding areas has to offer. If shopping or souvenirs are part of your itinerary, then there are hundreds of shops in this 104 square kilometer town. Tonsberg is renown for their both their silverware and their Jarlsberg cheese. They have dozens of places for your taste buds to visit as well. The marketplace is a great place to get a quick bite and a souvenir.
