Cruise Oslofjord on a quiet electric boat with panoramic windows, live commentary, islands, lighthouses, and views of Oslo’s waterfront.

Alisha was a great guide- highlighting relevant sites but with quiet music in between.”

Our guide Alex was great, he was very friendly and energetic with lots of knowledge about the area. Would recommend this option to all!”
