“The experience was stunning!! Definitely worths it. When we started the weather was snowy and windy but Christian, the bus driver did an amazing job transferring us to all those magical places. Johana, our tour guide is very enthusiastic about her job and did her best to transmit us all those interesting information making our trip even more pleasant. She was even kind enough to share more details about places to visit and things to do in Tromso. The nature was breathtaking and we got a great taste of the Nordic landscapes in winter. Definitely recommend!!”

Oslo: Fjord Evening Cruise with Shrimp Buffet

2.Fjord Evening Cruise with Shrimp Buffet

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,956 reviews · 3 hours · from $88

Meet at Rådhusbrygge 3 for a relaxed three-hour evening cruise on Oslofjord. You will sail aboard a restored wooden ship, pass Hovedøya, Dyna Lighthouse, Bygdøy, and Huk Bay, and eat a Norwegian shrimp buffet. Bring warm clothes, arrive early for better seating, and budget extra for drinks.

“We where very lucky with the weather. 24-25 Celsius, almost no wind and no clouds. The boat, a charming wooden sailboat (but they used the engine) gave a perfect atmosphere for the trip around the inner Oslofjord. The shrimp buffet, with white bread, butter, mayonnaise and a pile of shrimp on top...loved it! (you have to peal the shrimp yourself) The crew where polite, helpful and spreading good mood to us all. 5 star trip!!!”

Arctic Fjord Roadtrip with Scenic Picnic from Tromso

4.Arctic Fjord Roadtrip with Scenic Picnic from Tromso

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 746 reviews · 5 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $151Top rated

Travel from Tromsø into Kvaløya’s fjords, beaches, lakes, and mountain country in a small group of up to 15 people. Your guide, often someone such as Tom, Armand, Filip, or Joaquin, makes scenic stops, prepares a vegan-friendly sandwich picnic, and takes complimentary photos. Expect a flexible 5 to 6 hour road trip shaped by weather.

“The whole experience was amazing. Joaquin and Lucas were so friendly and made the trip worthwhile. They ensured that everyone involved got to see the amazing scenery that tromso/sommaroy and the fjiords offered and that people could get as many pictures as possible. My wife was pregnant so the small group and attention to detail the guides offered made it worthwhile. One of the best tours we have done and can't say anything negative at all about the trip. Amazing!”

Andreas was very professional as a driver and storyteller too :) he told us lots about the history and daily life in Tromso, showed us beautiful serene white spots, which remained my highlight from my five days stay in Tromso. We got to see reindeers from afar to not disturb them during their pregnancies, seals in the fjords also from afar, very close fly of an eagle above us and short glance of an white weasel trying to cross the road.”

13.Oslo Fjord Evening Cruise with Shrimp Buffet on a Sailing Ship

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 170 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $90

Meet at Rådhusbrygge 3 for a roughly three-hour evening sail around Oslofjord. You’ll pass the Opera House, Akershus Fortress, and small wooded islets aboard a traditional wooden boat. A simple buffet of Norwegian shrimp, bread, butter, lettuce, dill, lemon, and mayonnaise is served, with blankets available when the breeze turns cold.

“The trip was excellent, and the team on the boat was as well. The shrimp buffet was fresh and tasty, and the wine choice was good. Only one challenge. The first passengers occupy the tables. So if you have a family or large group of people who want to share the table, come a minimum of 30 minutes beforehand. I highly recommend spending the evening in the summertime.”

Overall, it was a pleasant and well-organized experience that we would highly recommend. However, a bit disappointing with lunch, lacking of fish meat ingredients and slightly pricy for what we are getting. --- Would you like me to make it sound more casual like a review (short and friendly) or more…”
