'Ello chaps!…read more Batservice Sightseeing (Boat Service Sightseeing) is located in the heart of downtown Oslo (near Akershus Fortress). They offer a variety of "fjord" sightseeing tours. I say "fjord" because the region is within a "fjord" but the fjords one would imagine being in Norway are found elsewhere, such as near Bergen. Despite this, it's a great two hour tour, and costs about $40 USD. It's money well spent. You get great views of Oslo from the water, getting to see the water shore attractions such as the Oslo Opera House, but also the near by islands and summer homes. Snacks and drinks are available for purchase on board. You can pre-purchase tickets online or in person --- or on the spot, although some tours may fill up. Seating is on an open deck and available first come first serve, so be early for a good spot. They suggest one half hour prior to departure time. Overall I give Batservice Sightseeing 5 stars out of 5.

Liked the ferry service to museums island. Sorry to say bus might be a bit cheaper, but views on…read morethe water are sort of the point of visiting Oslo, IMHO. $16 for 3 rides for 2 seemed pretty reasonable. Thankfully, weather was amazing and there were dozens of sailboats out as the boat returned around 5:30 pm on a Wednesday in late August. Did not need to wait more than 4-10 minutes for ferry rides to Fram/Kon-Tiki area, or back to Oslo.

Pretty marina in Oslo, Norway. Our cruise ship docked close to here. It was walking distance from…read morethe cruise port. The moment we stepped onto the boardwalk, it was raining. Our local friends said we must have brought the rain with us because it had been sunny and dry for the previous 3 weeks. Anyways, I digress. Aker Brygge is a great place to hangout. There are a combination of restaurants, bars, and shops. Our friends told us that on clear days, there are often concerts and cultural events happening. Must be pretty cool.

This has been the biggest highlight of our entire trip so far! So glad I saw this on a friend's…read moreInstagram. The sauna is hot and the water refreshing. Made for a perfect day!
