What To Expect

Oslofjord

Oslo is beautifully situated at the head of the Oslo Fjord (Oslofjorden in Norwegian) and is surrounded by forested hills. It’s a stunning city, and the best way to appreciate its beauty is on a relaxing sightseeing cruise. On this two-hour tour, discover the scenery from a sightseeing boat. You’ll sail past numerous islands, including Hovedøya and the Dyna Lighthouse, through narrow inlets and into sheltered bays so that you can capture the capital on camera from different angles. We will pass the Opera House in Oslo, housing The Norwegian National Opera & Ballet ensemble. The spot has been named Kirsten Flagstads place 1 after the opera's first director Kirsten Flagstad place 1 after the opera's first director Kirsten Flagstad.

The Oslofjord is not a fjord as we know it from Norway. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful trip despite the freezing cold, passing sauna boats of ancient history and breathtaking nature. Oslo is always worth a visit. I can only recommend it.
A good boat tour

The trip is fine, you are taken by Oslo Bay, there is not much information during the tour. The boat is relatively comfortable but nothing out of the ordinary. It seems to me that 2 ha is a long time ...should last at most an hour and a half
A relaxing trip

A wonderful way to spend a couple of hours drifting silently around the fjord. Interesting information given as and when required. Drinks and food available on board We were lucky with the weather as the sun was shining but if you go this time of year make sure you have warm clothing as it does get quite chilly. Blankets are provided
Very Enjoyable

Enjoyed the boat and crew was wonderful- only reason not a 5/5 was the Audio portion of the pre-recorded info about each place was off and only worked part of the time. Luckily, one of the employees narrated some of it and frankly was more entertaining than the pre-recorded portions.
Lovely sightseeing via sailing boat ! But wrap up !

Good to see different perspectives of Oslo and the Fjords which we couldn’t on land. Nice that there was blankets as it got rather cold ! There’s a big canopy which shelters from the rain however if it was really bad rain you could get a bit wet. There’s a bar for drinks hot and cold. Thought the tour was well organised, left on time and arrived back on time. Easy to find the boat and the staff were friendly. Recommend.
A great time!

We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise. The crew were helpful, the audio easy to hear and understand, and blankets were provided for warmth. We did not eat or drink anything, but fellow passengers seemed to enjoy a variety of offerings. We were lucky the weather was mostly sunny with a few clouds. Of course on the water the wind was naturally blowing and cold, especially later in the afternoon.

The cruise itself was informative and we saw sights that the normal traveler might not see. The 2-hour time was perfect. However, while the old-style ship was interesting (we sat on top aft ship) we found the upkeep to be somewhat lacking. Chairs were broken and felt unsafe and there trash (cigarette butts, paper) strewn about the deck.
Fun Fjord Tour
