If you’re fond of history and culture, then you’ll surely love going to Sandefjord. Sandefjord is a town that has been around since the Viking Age. In fact, The Gokstad Viking Ship which dates back to the year 900 was found in Sandefjord. You can still see a replica of that ship parked at the harbor. It was also a major center of the shipping and whaling industry in the Arctic and Antarctic areas. And, if you want to probe into the history of these industries in Sandefjord, you need only to go to the Whaling Museum. It has everything you need to know about whalers and their trade. The guides there give very in-depth lectures and really let you into all the information about whaling, even the gruesome stuff like how the whales were hunted and killed. It’s surely an interesting and educational place for history lovers to visit. To get to Sandefjord, you’ll mostly likely pass through Sandefjord Airport. You can get a cheap car hire in Sandefjord airport by looking for the car rental offices, which are located very close to the airport, or by booking a reservation through the internet. It’s the most convenient way of going around Sandefjord, so I fully recommend using a rental car instead of using the public transport system.
