About Boat & Sailing Tours in Oslo
The Oslofjord is central to the character of Oslo, with a cluster of green islands reachable by ferry from the city centre. Travelling across the water offers a different perspective on the capital, taking in open views before exploring the islands on foot.
Lindøya and Hovedøya combine natural trails and traces of history, making a fjord excursion a refreshing complement to time in the city.
What to expect on a Boat & Sailing Tours in Oslo experience
You'll travel by ferry between the fjord islands with a guide, exploring Lindøya and Hovedøya on foot along natural trails. Expect historical and cultural context about the Oslofjord, a tasting of local Norwegian products and personalised recommendations for the rest of your visit.
The experience blends time on the water with relaxed walks ashore.
Best time to visit
Boat-based experiences are best enjoyed from late spring through summer and into early autumn, when the weather is mildest and ferry services run more frequently. Bring layers and comfortable footwear, as conditions on the water can be cooler than in the city.
Getting around
Ferries to the fjord islands depart from central Oslo, easily reached on foot or by tram and bus from the city centre. Once ashore, the islands are explored on foot along natural trails.
