Full description

This is the classic Oslo Fjord sightseeing on an authentic, heated sailing ship.
We pass through narrow sounds, idyllic bays, and a maze of islands with tiny summer houses. Oslo, with its superb location, offers unique photo opportunities.

Enjoy the scenery from an authentic sailing ship.
You’ll sail past numerous islands, including Hovedøya and the Dyna Lighthouse, through narrow inlets and into sheltered bays to capture the capital on camera from different angles.

We will pass the Oslo Opera House, housing the Norwegian National Opera & Ballet ensemble. The building has received many awards. You will also pass the new Munch Museum.

The boat then passes close to the peninsula of Bygdøy, with many fascinating museums as well as beaches such as Huk.
You will see the Maritime Museum with its veteran sailing ships moored outside and the impressive Fram Museum, housing the polar ship of the same name.

When you buy a fjord sightseeing ticket, it includes free ferry tickets to the museum island Bygdøy on the same day! All you have to do is show your sightseeing ticket to the crew on the ferries, and you're ready to go.

NEW APP: Explore the fjords in your own language!
The app is available in 13 languages: English, Arabic, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, Chinese, and Russian.
