Hop aboard Oslo's electric ferries for a spectacular day of Island Hopping. Join us to explore the inner harbor of the Oslofjord and experience this unique side of Norway’s capital! 

 

Your journey kicks off at our tour center in central Oslo, where you will meet your local guide. After a quick briefing, we’ll hop aboard an electric tram—"trikk," as the locals call it— and glide through the vibrant city streets to Aker Brygge, Oslo’s buzzing waterfront district. With its trendy restaurants, stylish shops, and breath-taking views of the Oslo Fjord, it’s the perfect launch point for our adventure!

After just 15 minutes on an electric ferry, we’ll reach Gressholmen, an island nature reserve, famous for its beautiful scenery. Wander through the island paradise while your guide tells you about Norwegian culture and nature, all while soaking in stunning fjord views. And if you’re feeling adventurous, take a refreshing dip at one of Gressholmen’s tranquil beaches—just don’t forget your swimsuit!

Next, we’ll ferry over to explore Nakholmen, a charming island known for its picturesque coastal cottages—a beloved weekend retreat for Oslo locals. As we cruise past several other islands, you’ll get a glimpse of authentic Norwegian island life, where colorful cabins line the shores and locals embrace the slow, scenic pace of the fjord.

After soaking up Nakholmen’s charm, we’ll board our ferry back to Aker Brygge, giving you one last chance to marvel at the beauty of the Oslo Fjord. Back on land, you can choose to stay to explore the vibrant waterfront district, or wrap up this adventure with a smooth tram ride back to the city center with your guide. You can also choose to continue your adventure by hopping on the express ferry to Hovedøya, an island only 8 minutes from Oslo where history and nature collide. Just ask your guide for easy directions! 

This is the ultimate way to experience Oslo’s island paradise, rich history, and stunning nature, all in one incredible trip. Pack your swimsuit, grab your camera, and get ready for an experience you’ll be talking about long after you leave Norway

When In Norway

Join us on a winter adventure! Whether you're looking for a peaceful hike through the snow-laden forest or an adrenaline-pumping adventure on ice, our winter tours in Oslo and its surrounding beautiful nature have something for everyone. Welcome to the winter wonderland in the forest high above Oslo city! The locals call this region Oslomarka, which means Oslo's forest. We offer a variety of hiking tours and activities that will make your winter experience truly unforgettable. People often say that winter in Oslo is dark and cold, but for those of us living here it is often our favorite time of year.

There is nothing like the feeling of walking among the snow-covered trees, breathing the crisp winter air, warming up by the fire and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of hygge. Our knowledgeable guides will lead the way, sharing interesting facts about the local area.
