      Munch Museum & River Cruise
      We had a wonderful time. We enjoyed the cruise around the bay & the narration was so informative. The Munch museum was fascinating. The viewing of the “ Scream “ painting was so special & amazing This priceless piece was viewed only @ certain times was dramatic and exclusive.

      Excellent way to relax
      We were met with smiles, directed to our seat upstairs and given a glass of fizz. Our seating area was upstairs and inside with a clean modern feel. After the safety brief we cruised silently out of the harbour and while passing sights of interest we were informed on interested facts about, the architecture, history and beauty of the many islands within the fjord. As we’d bought the brunch and bubbles tour we were served from the bar at our table along with a plates of delicious food followed by a small sweet snack. It was a really pleasurable experience not rushed or over crowded. If I was visiting Oslo again I wouldn’t hesitate doing the same trip again.

      Absolutely incredible 😍
      Went with my fiancé and it was a gorgeous way to see Oslo! The boat was silent, staff were super friendly, food was amazing (although there could have been a bit more of the starter!) and the views were incredible. Amazing way to spend 2.5hrs relaxing and soaking in the views, highly recommend.

      Excellent option to have a brunch
      I had a fantastic experience on the Oslo Fjord Brunch & Bubbles Cruise last month. The panoramic views of the fjord were stunning, offering a serene escape from the city. The brunch was exquisite, featuring fresh seafood, artisanal breads, cheeses, and delightful pastries, all complemented by champagne and fresh juices. The staff were attentive and professional, enhancing the overall experience with their hospitality and knowledge of the area. The elegant décor and relaxing atmosphere made it perfect for a leisurely brunch. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Oslo.

      Beautiful Cruise in Oslo
      A magical night on the harbour in Oslo. The food, service, beautiful boat and lovely crew made it a night to remember. Beautiful fine dining menu was provided as we sailed slowly around the many inlets and foreshore in the large harbour. Thank you for an amazing evening.

      Friendly crew but lunch portion too small
      The crew were all very friendly and the views were very pretty. However, the lunch was disappointing. It was an extremely small portion. Would have expected more for the cost of the trip. We left hungry.

    We booked this trip thinking we would get insightful understanding of the City of Oslo and the Fjord. Firstly the sound system didn't really work properly for almost the first hour making it difficult to hear our guide. It was also a trip that could be done in 1.5hrs rather than 2.5hrs. Perhaps if more details were offered it would have filled the time better. Our guide was however very pleasant and the electric boat is amazing but not worth the €53 price.

    A really great two and a half hours seeing beyond the city of Oslo travelling around the fjord to see the beautiful islands and houses along the coastline with great commentary and historical facts thrown in too.
    The boat, being electric, was so quiet and was also very clean. It had plenty of seating both inside and out. It also had a bar offering drinks and snacks and had bathroom facilities too.
    Would highly recommend to others.

    This two hours Fjord cruise was just too good. The electric boat looked new and it was very silent. It had a small cafe and toilet facility. The captain and guide took us around many small islands which were very pretty. There was enough place to sit inside or outside. The outdoor sitting had its own charm. The guide gave us a lot of information about Oslo Fjord. This electric boat is highly in demand so advance reservation is recommended.

    We thoroughly enjoyed this trip, having done lots of research into the different tours available prior to visiting Oslo, we definitely made the right choice. Sure, there are cheaper and shorter tours, but I would suggest that this 2.5 hour tour is the perfect amount of time.
    The tour guide was very knowledgeable, information was clearly relayed.
    The boat itself was very clean and modern.
    The electric motor element was a great touch, it made all the difference not to have noisy motors running whilst out on the Fjord. We heard some of the other tour boats in and around the harbour area which were not electric and honestly feel it would have impacted the tour with the noise of them running. Just being out on the Fjord in pure silence was quite something.
    Refreshments onboard seemed plentiful and well priced, we only had a tea and a hot chocolate which we enjoyed.
    Probably one of the best things we did during our time in Oslo. It was very relaxing.

    Such a good memory for me & my boyfriend . Sitting outside with a good comfortable table and chairs to visit the beautiful Fjord , seeing the landscape and small island , the lighthouse .. Speakers played some good music , good atmosphere .
    The young tour guy’s introduction is Fun and friendly , the engineer and captain are good team . They will pause outside every landmark or stories of Oslo , you can listen every corner, floor of the cruise . You can stay inside the restaurant if the weather not good or feel cold . Drinks and snacks are lovely and price is fair .

    This trip was a great way to view the city from a different angle and learn about the Fjord. The boat is silent so it's easy to hear the tour guide and enjoy the views. I liked the marine biology information they gave us.

    This cruise was so much fun. Our guide was very friendly and funny! The safety demonstration was great and kept the crowds attention and he was very knowledgeable about the Oslo islands we cruised by. Also, great coffee, hot chocolate, and cinnamon rolls!

    We took this 2.5 hour cruise with Brim Explorer just the other day on our first visit to Oslo and we found it to be a great way of getting a "feel" for how the city and its population relates to the fjord.

    I'd highly recommend it.

    The boat was great, the seating/standing positions are great, the "narration" was just about right and the crew were super friendly and the little cafe did a nice hot chocolate.

    It was an extremely pleasant two and a half hours and I'd suggest that any trip which took less time than this is perhaps not really worth going on because we felt that you needed at least this sort of time to see anything.

    One thing I'd highlight is that the "silent" nature of the catamaran is actually really quite a key feature - it's really pleasant to glide along through the fjord while making little noise and disturbance.

    The other thing I'd highlight is that we were exceptionally lucky with the weather - everything looks great in the sunshine and if you get the chance to pick your day, do try and line it up with the weather report :-)

    I read the comments and frankly I was disappointed. I was expecting to go into the fjord with the rock walls and we only made circles in the water with a guide who presented us with what we already knew. Too bad... I regretted having spent 150 euros for 3 people.
    To do if you want to take a ride in a beautiful electric boat…

    The experience of sailing in a quiet boat is very serene. The views are stunning. We even managed to see a wild deer on the shoreline of one of the islands. The crew are top notch especially the compère who was very informative and witty. Thoroughly recommended.
