Evening Cruise in Oslofjord
A short walk along the pier brings you to a beautiful old wooden sailing vessel, restored to its former glory. The boat offers open-deck seating allowing for stellar views of Oslofjord and its inlets. Take in the highlights of the fjord, including the ruins of a 12th-century monastery on the island of Hovedoya and the nearby Dyna Lighthouse. You will see the beaches of Oslo, including Huk Beach, and the coastline of the Nesodden Peninsula. You'll also see one of the city's charming suburbs, the lovely, wooded peninsula of Bygdoy, which the King of Norway once used as a hunting grounds and is now home to the Fram Museum, housing the polar ship of the same name.

What you will see along the way:
Your restored vessel features open-deck seating allowing for wonderful views of Oslofjord, a vast body of water that extends almost 100 kilometers (62 miles), and its tiny inlets. The shoreline is studded with colorful towns and wooden cabins, historic sights, weather-worn fishing boats, and a wonderful array of seabirds.

Photo Opportunities:
As you sail through narrow inlets and into sheltered bays, capture the scenic splendor from different angles and varied light.

Snack:
A fresh Norwegian shrimp buffet complete with the fixing and a beverage ( beer, wine or a soft drink) is the perfect accompaniment to the stunning scenery and evening ambiance.

Special Notes:

Please be advised that there might be a short walk of up to 400 meters to join the boat. The boat has a short, steep gangway and steep steps to reach the onboard toilets, however there is a handrail. A jacket, hat and comfortable, non-slip shoes are recommended. There is no shade on the top deck, so extra care needs to be taken of exposed skin in sunny or windy conditions.
