    • Blend a short boat tour with time on an island, ideal when you want a quick escape from the city without committing a day before your plan.

    • Step onto the boat when boarding begins, pick where to sit, then watch the crew pull away from the city and out over the water around you.

    • Spend around 1.5 hours moving across Oslofjord to Hovedøya, ride the boat between shoreline views, then step off to explore Hovedøya on foot.

    • Use the time on board to take photos of the skyline, watch boats move around you, chat with your group, or just sit back and look at the water.

    • Choose the 2-hour option to have Gressholmen on your route as well, giving you extra sailing between the city and the islands before you head back.
