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

The cruise was beautiful! The views were spectacular, and the crew was very friendly. I recommend getting there early so you can have a seat with a great view. Also, dress warmly if you are going in the winter- some of those at our party did not dress appropriately.

Our driver Janis, was very helpful and accommodating. It was a long drive, but the scenery was amazing and well worth the time. Nothing like anything we had ever seen before coming from Western Australia.

Really enjoyable trip with stunning views. Crew were very welcoming - would definitely recommend! Was beautiful and sunny on our trip in late February but very cold so wrap up warm.

It was a cold morning cruise, but they supplied blankets which was nice. Recommend the Hot chocolate! Entire cruise was nice beginning to end!
