I have recently returned from a cruise on board Queen Mary 2 that took in the port of Oslo.

Oslo is not an overlarge city and only has a population of around 590,000. The main berth and terminal for visiting cruise ships is very close to the centre of Oslo and the Oslo Hop On-Hop Off bus service stops at the cruise terminal.
Among some of the excellent sights we visited in our day there were the Nobel Peace Centre...
