Norway · FJORD BOAT TRIPS IN OSLO
Good fjord boat trips in Oslo fill up weeks ahead, and in a short northern season the great ones go first. Below: the 9 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Two hours of Oslo Fjord sailing on a heated traditional ship, with hop-on hop-off at Bygdøy and audio in 13 languages.
“The boat was comfortable and ordered an interesting way to learn about Oslo, the fjords and its history. The guide was entertaining and interesting, she made the kids and I feel welcome. Would recommend wrapping up warm as the winter breeze is certainly refreshing!”
Electric Oslofjord cruise from Oslo Fjordhage with quiet views and a 6-language Voice of Norway audio app, 1.5 hours.
“Really good Please can you provide refund for mis understanding regarding tour from Flam rather than Skoljden.”
Silent electric fjord cruise from Aker Brygge, guided in English. Pass Akershus, Opera, Dyna Fyr, islands, plus warm indoor decks.
“Everything was great! We saw some really interesting spots during our cruise around the fjord. Our amazing guide Suzi commented on everything and was incredibly nice, positive, and energetic. We can highly recommend this experience! 🤩”
Sail Oslo Fjord for 2 hours on a traditional ship, with blankets, English audio, an Oslo Fjord Guide app, and options to pair with Bygdøy museums.
“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.”
See Oslo in one day with Holmenkollen, Vigeland, Fram Museum, and a fjord cruise, plus Folk or Kon-Tiki by season.
“Day trip was great, the guided tour of multiple historic sites was fun and eye opening. Both the driver and the guide were very accomodating and friendly and made it all seamless. Would reccomend!”
Oslo coach tour with Vigeland Park, Fram Museum, and a 90-minute Oslofjord cruise, plus Holmenkollen photo time.
“A beautiful boat trip on the Oslo fjord. We really enjoyed it. You can follow an audio track or map on screen. On our trip we had a little rain which resulted in a full rainbow over Oslo.”
Sail past Oslo’s islands and fortresses on a traditional wooden ship with live jazz and a fjord shrimp buffet for $93.
“Bella esperienza, navigare in mezzo ai fiordi mangiando gamberetti veramente squisiti, con poi un orchestra jazz che suona vicino a te. Cosa holere di più. Bravi!!!”
Coach-and-boat highlights of Oslo, from Vigeland and Holmenkollen to a calm electric fjord cruise.
“Great tour …. Janeen our tour guide and driver Turin (sp?) were both very informative and gave great commentary with historical facts and landmarks throughout the tour.”
Self-guided Oslo to Bergen rail and fjord day with Flåm Railway, Aurlandsfjord and Nærøyfjord cruise, bus to Voss, train to Bergen.
“Too long and not worth it. Trains are super crowded and it is difficult to find a seat. The scenery is just as good or better in the US The only good part was the fiord cruise So fly to Bergen and go on fiord cruises from there Don’t waste your money on the excursion.”
Water, snow, sky and the towns in between.
