How to get to Lysebu

If you arrive by air to Oslo airport (not Rygge or Torp airports) you may get from the airport to Lysebu by airport train + taxi. If you are two or more, a taxi directly from the airport to Lysebu is as cheap or cheaper than any other transport alternative. When you get to the arrival hall (after having gone through customs) there will be a taxi counter 20-30 meters away (next to the Information counter). Ask them for the cheapest taxi to go to LYSEBU. They will find the right taxi for you, and the rate is fixed for each taxi company. You can pay with a credit or debit card. (If you need cash in Norwegian Crowns, there is a cash machine in the arrival hall.) You do not need to tip the taxi driver--if you do, do not tip more than 10%. The approximate taxi-rates T/R Oslo Airport - Lysebu (in NOK) as of last year were

1-4 passengers 5-7 passengers Thereafter pr passenger

NorgesTaxi  610 910 100

Taxi2 is slightly cheaper.

People travelling light with the DFDS ferry from Copenhagen may after arrival walk along the quay the 900 meters to Oslo S (the central railway station) and take the scenic trip with T-bane (metro) number 1 from there in the direction Frognerseteren. (Jernbanetorget = Oslo S.) Leave the metro at Voksenkollen station which is the last station before Frognerseteren and walk the 700 meters through the forest from the station to Lyseby (see the map here).

Of course people using the airport express train to Oslo S may also use the metro to get from Oslo S to Voksenkollen.
