The experience
An afternoon that belongs to you
No timetable, no crowd, no fixed route drawn by someone who's never met you. Three hours on the water, with the route shaped around your group within safe weather and operating conditions.
You step aboard at Tjuvholmen, shake hands with your captain, and the afternoon is a blank map. Cruise past the Opera House and let the fjord widen to the west. Swing by Dyna Lighthouse. Drop anchor in a quiet cove and slip into the water. Or point straight for the islands and spend the whole three hours barefoot on a beach. Say the word — the course changes.
Your captain knows every sheltered bay, every hidden beach, every spot where the afternoon light lands just right — and will shape the route around the wind, the weather and your mood, then rewrite it the moment you want to linger somewhere longer.
Norwegian snacks and soft drinks come with the boat. Bring your own wine or champagne — there's a cooler waiting onboard — or add the Premium food and drinks package with fresh fruit, nuts and a glass of bubbles.
And the shot you can't take yourself: on most trips, weather permitting, your captain lifts a drone into the air mid-cruise. Your boat carving a line through the fjord, the Oslo skyline at your back, the islands from above. Footage delivered afterwards, yours to keep.

How the water moves
A quick safety walkthrough, a course set by you, and the harbour falls away behind.
How the water moves
Depart · Tjuvholmen — meet your captain. Board at Tjuvholmen allé. A quick safety walkthrough, a course set by you, and the harbour falls away behind.
Oslo skyline — the Opera and the harbour. A slow pass along the Opera roof, Akershus Fortress and Bygdøy as the city opens into open fjord.
Your choice — a cove, an island, or both. Anchor in a sheltered bay for a swim, or run for the beaches of Hovedøya, Gressholmen or Lindøya. You decide on the water.
Return — back to Tjuvholmen. Home under low afternoon light. Drone footage lands in your inbox afterwards (weather permitting).
