A Journey to the Industrial Heart of Europe

It is a journey that appeals equally to Norwegian business professionals attending major trade fairs and car enthusiasts making the pilgrimage to the homes of Porsche and Mercedes-Benz. Nestled in a valley surrounded by vineyards, Stuttgart offers a surprising mix of high-tech industry and relaxed Swabian hospitality. At Ready2Go, we are your dedicated local partner for this German connection. We specialize in making your trip seamless, secure, and perfectly timed, whether you are closing a deal or exploring the edge of the Black Forest.
Why Choose Ready2Go for Your Trip to Baden-Württemberg?
Stuttgart is a key destination for Norwegian industry and commerce. However, direct flights are not always available daily, meaning itineraries often require connections via major hubs like Copenhagen, Frankfurt, or Amsterdam. Navigating these options to ensure you arrive on time for a meeting requires expertise. Ready2Go offers a distinct advantage: we are a Norwegian travel agency that prioritizes your efficiency and peace of mind.

- Transparent Pricing: We believe in honest communication. The price you see at the start is the price you pay. We strip away the hidden fees and confusing add-ons often associated with international travel, offering a straightforward booking experience that allows you to expense your trip or budget for your holiday without stress.
The Journey: Oslo (OSL) to Stuttgart (STR)
Connecting the Norwegian capital to the southwest of Germany is a smooth process designed for the modern traveler.
- Departure from Gardermoen: Your trip begins at Oslo Airport (OSL). As a world-class facility, OSL ensures a smooth start. We recommend utilizing the Flytoget airport express for a punctual arrival. Enjoy the efficient service and shopping options before boarding your flight.
- The Route: Most itineraries involve a quick, logical stopover in a Northern or Central European hub. The total travel time is generally very efficient, often taking between 3 to 5 hours. It is a comfortable transition from Scandinavia to the heart of Continental Europe.
- Arrival in Stuttgart: You will land at Stuttgart Airport (STR). It is renowned for its efficiency and location. Notably for business travelers, the airport is located directly next to the Stuttgart Trade Fair (Messe Stuttgart), allowing you to walk from the plane to the exhibition hall in minutes.
Destination: Stuttgart – Cars, Culture, and Wine
Stuttgart is unique among German cities; it is an industrial powerhouse located in a topographical bowl ("Der Kessel") lush with urban vineyards.
- The Cradle of the Automobile
For car lovers, this is hallowed ground. You can visit the architecturally stunning Mercedes-Benz Museum and the dynamic Porsche Museum. Both offer a deep dive into the history of mobility that fascinates engineering-minded Norwegians. - Vineyards and Views
Unlike most major cities, Stuttgart produces wine within its city limits. You can hike through the vineyards up to the Württemberg Mausoleum for a panoramic view of the Neckar Valley. It is a perfect way to unwind after a day of meetings. - Swabian Gastronomy
The region is famous for its comfort food. You must try "Maultaschen" (large meat-filled dumplings) or "Spätzle" (egg noodles). The local atmosphere in a traditional "Weinstube" (wine tavern) is cozy and welcoming. - Shopping and Palaces
The city center boasts the Königsstraße, one of the longest pedestrian shopping streets in Germany, leading to the grand Palace Square (Schlossplatz). It is a beautiful spot to relax and watch the world go by.
Practical Travel Tips for Norwegians
- Transport: The S-Bahn (lines S2 and S3) connects the airport to the main station (Hauptbahnhof) in the city center in just 27 minutes. It is punctual and clean.
- Cash Culture: Germany is still very cash-oriented compared to Norway. While hotels and big shops take cards, bring Euros for smaller restaurants, bakeries, and ticket machines.
- Environmental Zone: If you rent a car, be aware that Stuttgart has strict environmental zones. Rental cars will have the necessary green sticker ("Feinstaubplakette"), but parking can be expensive in the city center.
- Sundays: Shops are closed on Sundays. Plan your shopping for Saturday and reserve Sunday for museums (which are open) or hiking in the nearby Black Forest.
