Spend time to reconnect with nature on this half-day Island Hopping tour. Discover the Oslo fjord's islands on foot and visit three different islands through ferries with a guide. Take a break and have a picnic on a hidden beach with time for swimming. Visit an ancient abbey, local villages, forests, and sea cliffs.
Hop aboard a local ferry to Hovedøya where some of Oslo's best history and coastal scenery will be revealed. Walk among the chambers and rooms and admire the well-preserved ruins. Your local guide will fill you with stories of Norway's transition from the Viking era to become part of a Christian Europe. Continue to the rugged coastline and stop at some beaches and lookout points before returning to the pier to catch another ferry to the island of Lindøya. Get fantastic views from the summit of the island. Enjoy your picnic on a southwest-facing beach and soak up the immense views of the water and hills.
