Overall rating

4.7 / 5

The trip was relaxing and informative. As another comment suggested, if you want to listen to audio guide, it would be nicer to stay inside. Oslo Fjord is beautiful and calming. The audio guide also not only shares about the islands/surroundings but also Norway as a country. Overall, I will recommend this tour to anyone visiting Oslo. However, moving around the cruise (e.g. staying inside and going outside) occasionally would provide a better experience, if this is possible

Very silent and peaceful ride through the Oslo Fjord. I would recommend warm clothes and making use of the blankets on board, if you wish to sit outside throughout the trip. I would totally recommend this experience & would make a recommendation to the organization: to serve hot chocolate.

This was a wonderful cruise. The electric boat was so clean, quiet and standing on the deck was so peaceful observing the beautiful scenery. The commentary inside was very helpful and we thought it excellent value for money.

The cruise was punctual and the personal was polite. It was a sunny day so we could enjoy a lot! The interior of cruise was very warm and tiny.

We waited in line for over 2 hours in the hot sun. Best to buy skip the line tiks!!
