Discover Oslo from the water on a relaxing island-hopping adventure through the beautiful Oslofjord. Escape the city, explore peaceful islands, and experience the local summer charm that many visitors never get to see.
Step aboard a local ferry and leave the busy city behind as you cruise across the sparkling waters of the Oslofjord. Enjoy fresh sea air, scenic views, and the peaceful atmosphere of island life just a short ride from the city center.
Your first stop is a quiet nature island where Oslo’s wild side comes alive. Follow your guide along easy walking trails through open fields, forest paths, and calm coastal areas. Breathe in the crisp fjord air, enjoy the untouched scenery, and learn about the local nature, history, and island lifestyle.
Next, continue by ferry to one of the fjord’s most charming summer islands. Wander past traditional wooden cottages, colorful gardens, small beaches, and beautiful viewpoints overlooking the water. This is where locals come to relax, swim, and enjoy long summer days and you’ll get to experience it like a local.
During the tour, you can enjoy your picnic lunch whenever it suits you. We recommend bringing your own lunch and water. Depending on the season and opening hours, there may also be a chance to stop at a small island shop for snacks or ice cream.
On warm days, bring your swimwear and enjoy a refreshing swim in the Oslofjord.
At the end of the tour, return to Oslo by ferry and enjoy one of the most beautiful arrivals into the city. From the water, admire famous landmarks such as Akershus Fortress, Oslo City Hall, Aker Brygge, and the modern waterfront.
This tour is perfect for travelers who want to see more than the usual city sights and enjoy a relaxed, authentic Oslo experience surrounded by nature, sea, and local island charm.
PS: Until 17 May 2026, this tour will visit 3 islands instead of 2, giving you even more time to experience the beauty of the Oslofjord.
