Oslofjord Sightseeing

We had great weather and the group wasn’t too full, so there was plenty of room to enjoy everything. A fun experience overall.

Had a good time and the audio was helpful but it would have been better with a physical tour guide. Highly recommended

Honestly you can avoid this one, the boat was super clean and easy to find but the commentary was completely missing!

We nearly missed the boat because it was poorly sign posted and there was very little greeting by the boat staff that the boat in question was actually our boat. I had to ask twice to be sure.

Great tour saw the city and islands staff was friendly I would recommend the entire family enjoyed it

Would be a great excursion if it's not pouring rain. There were only 8 people on our boat that was an actual ferry vessel that carried 100+ passengers. Very nice restrooms and extremely clean boat. Narration was in English for our trip and was informative. Easy to find on dock and all was handled successfully. Would do again if we come back and have decent weather!

Personally, not worth going at all in winter. We could barely see anything because of how fogged up the windows were and anything we could see was cloudy and foggy. On top of no visuals, it was ridiculously cold everywhere in the boat. I can imagine this being a lot better in summer, though!

Boat was clean and nice. Commentary was awful. It could have been entertaining and educational about Norwegian culture & history - but it was dull, dreary, poorly arranged. Ie the boat would be travelling and a dour American voice would say 'that house is such and such' without referring to whether the feature was in front, to the left or to the right.

An enjoyable trip around the inner fjord of Oslo. Commentary was a pre-recorded track (only in English; other languages via an app), but it was clear and informative. There was a stop at Bygdøy near the end for those wanting to visit the museums there. Luckily there weren’t that many people on my trip and good weather so no competition for the limited deck space

A nice and relaxing tour of the islands outside of Oslo. The information provided was interesting but not overdone. The boat is very quiet. Woukd recommend!

A lovely cruise to see the sights on a nice electric-powered boat. 2-housr felt about right to see the outer sights and get a real feel for the wider location.

We booked the oslo fjord sightseeing experience which stated it went to Bygdøy. We wanted to go to the museums there unfortunately the boat didn't go to Bygdøy at all. I emailed viator and they refunded me 50% of my trip. Just in case you think yr going to Bygdøy, you don't. Lovely trip though apart from that

Excellent trip. Very relaxing on a nice quiet boat

Very pleasant sail with beautiful views. Great way to see Oslo. The electric boat was so quiet and smooth. Guided narrative was informative.

The audio tour guide was easy to understand. The scenery was beautiful. We sat outside and were very comfortable.

Nice short trip, not crowded on the board.

Very nice trip, beautiful town

There was very little signage. No distinction between the ferry boat and tour boat that are located directly next to each other. When I arrived for the tour I was ushered on to the ferry boat and no tickets were asked to be shown. I thought this was weird but was unable to get off the boat before we departed. I immediately messaged the organizer through the viator app and still have heard nothing from them. I am extremely disappointed to have missed this tour as I was really looking forward to it.

Nice trip. Boat was quiet. Narration was good. Scenery was pretty. Location of the dock was easy to find.

Easy to find boat. Spacious, refreshment and loos on board. Scenery stunning, saw a seal and numerous sea birds. Good commentary on key places of interest. Loved it.

The cruise is silent. for the most part. The front of the ship or the back is the only place you can see the sights. Inside, if you sit on one side, you miss the other. Outside, the seating is not the greatest. If you are near the door, the constant opening and closing noise gets irritating. signage to the place is not great and needs improvement

This was a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours on a lovely summer day. The boarding process was quick and easy and there was an elevator that can take less sure-footed people up and down. I brought a hooded windbreaker, which was perfect for the chill wind on the open water. The description says passengers may disembark at Bygdoy to visit the Fram Museum, but doesn’t mention that you can’t get back on - once you disembark: you must make your own way back to Oslo. The narration was prerecorded - it was fine, but there was no chance to ask questions of a live narrator. For the price, it’s an enjoyable and scenic passtime.

Some nice views mostly if you did not arrive by ship

I was surprised by the size of the boat.It was very pleasant to stay in the air conditioned lower deck.There is a commentary but I didn't try to take it in.

A lovely introduction to Oslo, and the beautiful fjord. The boat was clean and comfortable - indoor and outdoor seating available (and a toilet). The boat is electric so very quiet and no diesel fumes to deal with. The ride was very smooth. The tour guide spoke in English, but there is also a free App with tour commentary in multiple languages available.

Great way to see round the Oslo fjord with many key sites visible from the water. This electric ferry is great - quiet and smooth, so no juddering that you get on older diesel vessels. Commentary was a bit hit and miss . No problem it is recorded but several points were played twice - did the captain hit the button early?

A bit hard to find where the boat leaves from. The cruise itself was very beautiful and informative.

View is amazing but…. Many things did not work Like voce system with languages, Half of the automated doors Coffee machine charged me 3X $4.00 and did not give coffee, I found someone she used employee code and got me a cup :) Overall I’m happy I took the tour but they need to fix those things

Relaxing cruise of Oslo and the fjord it is in. The electric boat makes for a peaceful cruise. The narration is informative but not intrusive at all. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable activity to gain a better understanding of what Oslo has to offer.

Great way to see the entire Oslo fjord, good guidance throughout the journey. Exceptional comfort in the ferry cabin

very pleasant cruise of Oslo fjord No complaints reasonably priced good seats good audio feature but most of all got lucky eith the weather

Pleasant and leisurely tour of the fjords of Oslo. The boat was comfortable and the scenery good. Was a bit cold and windy on the outer decks, but more than comfortable inside.

Lovely two hour cruise around Oslo Fjord islands. Good commentary (in English) and reasonable value. The weather was fabulous and there is outside top deck seating available front and back which we used and a definite must if you can get them on a nice day.

The ferry was very comfortable and the journey was truly enjoyable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making the experience even more pleasant. The scenery throughout the Oslo Fjord was absolutely breathtaking, with beautiful views at every turn. A wonderful way to explore the area and enjoy Norway’s stunning nature. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Start point of siteseeing cruise was hard to find from cruise ship and we finally found it but arrived 5 minutes after it left!

Really nice little boat ride. Friendly staff. They give you the opportunity to get off the boat and go around the Fram Museum then they’ll pick you up again later. Beer, wine and soft drinks all available to purchase on board.

The boat was very clean and the staff was very nice. Unfortunately, the PA system was not functioning and the commentary failed to download onto our IPhones. Also, the location of departure was difficult to find as there is no kiosk or employee to direct you.

I’m disappointed with the customer service I received regarding a fjord cruise that was cancelled in advance due to maintenance. I understand that cancellations happen for safety reasons, so the issue is not the cancellation itself, but how it was handled. The company claimed they emailed and called me, but I never received any email or phone call. This left me unaware and inconvenienced. I spoke with Georgios Apostolopoulos while requesting a refund, but the response was unhelpful and dismissive rather than focused on resolving the issue. Unexpected problems can happen, but clear communication and respectful customer service should be the minimum standard.

The operators were very up front with the reason for cancellation. All employees were easy to discuss options.

Booking went well, boarded in time for the 1:30pm cruise. At 1:35 were were informed that the cruise was cancelled… after all were boarded. Was offered a full refund by operating company, and also informed by onboard employees that although we would not get the 2-hour trip as planned, those that chose to do so could remain onboard for the 1-hour ferry round-trip ride… no audio tour, no additional support. However, the ferry travelled approximately 5 minutes to the nearest island, deposited ferry guests, and made a direct return. Although the refund is (reportedly) being issued, was extremely disappointing and upsetting to miss out on what would have been an enjoyable cruise on a beautiful day. (Beware booking on nice days when many are queueing for ferry rides, as ferry guests apparently take priority to fully paid sightseeing guests)

It was a very good experience! We all enjoyed it. Nice service 👍

A great experience and a very pleasant trip. Everything was on time, and the GuideToGo app was really helpful for listening to explanations at each stop

Lovely trip on the Fjord, so peaceful and quiet. Was good to see Oslo from the water. Fully recommend this trip.

Very smooth quiet trip, gone are the noisy boat noises, although bit of confusion at first as the boat we were originally going on got cancelled so swapped to another boat, some info would have been helpful to save us rushing around to try and find someone, but all good in the end

It was alright, nice weather, but there was no guide, no operator, we did not receive any information, no audio guides nothing, so we were basically just sitting on the boat for 2 hours :)

Excellent boat trip around the Oslo fjord. Lots of interesting information about the history of the area. Definitely environmentally friendly, quiet cruise.

This was an eventful ride on a nice boat. There is really nothing to see and it is two hours on a slow boat to no where.

We were expecting a guided tour. We were directed to an app, which was awful. It did not coordinate with what we were seeing. Also, there was someone on the boat who was narrating over a speaker. The speaker was choppy and broken up, and you couldn’t hear anything. His English was not good, he also spoke in German. We could not hear the recorded tour while he was speaking. The sites to see were not very enticing. I would’ve liked more about the geography and the terrain, and the natural history of the area, rather than seeing a little swimming hut. Further, everyone on the boat seemed bored.

Beautiful sights of the Oslo Fjord. The trip was informative and fun. Taking a broad turn out on a comfortable boat.
