4Really enjoyable tour!
Had a good time and the audio was helpful but it would have been better with a physical tour guide. Highly recommended
2I won't suggest this one
Honestly you can avoid this one, the boat was super clean and easy to find but the commentary was completely missing!
3Hard to find but pleasant cruise
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.
5Fjord
Great tour saw the city and islands staff was friendly I would recommend the entire family enjoyed it
5Scenic tour
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!
2Not worth it in winter
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!

About Oslo
Oslo is Norway's capital at the head of the Oslofjord, a green city of sculpture, Viking ships, polar-ship museums, an opera house and forests for skiing.
Oslo sits at the head of the Oslofjord, surrounded by forested hills and dotted with islands, and it is one of Europe's greenest capitals. The waterfront has the Opera House, a white marble building with a sloping roof that visitors can walk on, and Akershus Fortress, a medieval castle above the harbour. City Hall, a brick building with large murals, is where the Nobel Peace Prize is presented each December.
Top-ranked sights in Oslo: Akershus Castle (Akershus Slott), Oslo Royal Palace (Kongelige Slott), Oslo City Hall (Radhuset).
