After spending a weekend in Copenhagen I jumped on an overnight ferry to take me to Oslo.

Sorry you had a less than stellar experience. My wife and I took a Copenhagen to Oslo ferry several years ago and were fascinated by the flawless trip on a ferry that seemed solid as a rock. We are land lubbers from the central U.S. so every aspect was new and exciting. We have been on cruise ships too, but I’d take another ferry any day. Cruises are to me sort of meaningless. The breakfast served the next morning is still memorable years later. The choice of several kinds of pickled herring was a real treat. All in all, I’d take another ferry like this any time any place.

Thank you for watching and your comment. I’m so glad you had an unforgettable experience taking the ferry! There may be different types of cruises available and mine didn’t include good meal options. I did really enjoy the amazing views upon docking in Oslo in the morning!

@@JuliaKimMurphy Hi Julia when you open the door to your cabin you have to insert the card 3 times, i had some fun with that door to, till i found out *lol*

@irenestrmnss4496 Год назад

@@JuliaKimMurphy hi Julia. On the ferry in your cabin, if noise you go to the customer desk and complain about the neighbour or knock on his door. It s not allowed in the night make noises. Most tourists from May till September I think. Better March and April, less people but colder weather on the sea. But April till September great in Norway

Hello, fantastic video and one I’m hoping to try and complete in a few years!! I was just wondering, at 7:07 I can hear a military band performing a traditional Danish march in the background. Was this music you added to the video or was there a band performing on board?

@JuliaKimMurphy 3 года назад

Hi! Thanks for watching! That was the music that was put on by the cruise company - it was on the ship 😁

@JuliaKimMurphy 4 года назад

Enjoy! You will have a great time! It will be a bit colder in Feb so maybe bring lots of warm clothes for the deck!

Hey I was going to book this ferry but I was wondering what was included in the stated price

@JuliaKimMurphy 2 года назад

Hi, just the overnight ferry charges - no extras such as food or wifi etc

@leahsarah275 Год назад

Nice video. How did you get to Oslo centrum from where the ferry arrived? Were there bus ready to take you there or d you have to get to a train or take your car with you? My husband and I are planning to go but were unsure if it's smarter to take our car with us in order to have more time exploring Oslo

@JuliaKimMurphy Год назад

There was just one bus waiting at the terminal and so many people got on it! It was a bit uncomfortable to be honest. Might not be a bad idea to take your car with you if you can.

@steinarhaugen7617 Год назад

The terminal is at the tip of Vippetangkaia, just below Akershus fortress. From Jernbanetorget station, you can take bus 60 to Vippetangen. The bus journey takes about five minutes. Walking along the harbour promenade takes you from the terminal to the Opera house and the city centre in about 15 minutes.

@@JuliaKimMurphy bringing the car on the ferry is even more expensive. If you are going back the same day dont bring the car to Oslo. LOTS OF PUBLIC , cheap transportion like buses, tram, metro , trains. Parking a car in Oslo is almost impossible and very expensive.

@irenestrmnss4496 Год назад

Dont bring car to Oslo. EXPENSIVE TO PARK AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND PARKING. LOTS OF GOOD BUSES, TRAM, METRO AND TRAINS IN OSLO. MUVH BETTER. WALK FROM THE FERRY OR BUS TO THE CENTER

I would seriously report the guy playing the accordion.. So selfish. Did he think no one else was in the ship?

@JuliaKimMurphy 3 года назад

He seemed very involved with his accordion and when I asked him to stop at around 10 pm he promptly did. I think he was quite odd as a person but I guess not doing it to disturb anyone.

@botalm1878 20 дней назад

Those ships are cruise ferries with discotheques bars and cheap round trip deals in the weekends. Sail in the week.if you dont want noice. But she has bad luck. Who many schlep around accordions nowadays?!

@FerryChat 4 года назад

Hi, Its really nice video, I made same trip myself, Good Luck.

@akumashinn01 Год назад

is it allowed to walk around the city of oslo? or just only staying on the ship?

@JuliaKimMurphy Год назад

I took the ferry to go from Copenhagen to Oslo as I lived in Oslo at the time. It wasn’t really a cruise to other destinations and it looked like everyone got off at Oslo

@steinarhaugen7617 Год назад

Hahahaha. What a stupid question!

@princeajay4523 2 года назад

Hi, dear i also want to do this in april last week. Wht r the prices for per pax?

@tf3656 Год назад

Once arrived in Oslo do u need to get out of the boat and sleep outside in a hotel there or after a mini tour of Oslo do u return to the boat for the night ?

@botalm1878 20 дней назад

The round trip deals are night to night. One day in Oslo resp Copenhagen. Time enough for sight seeing.

Very Bad vlog, no information about prices

@JuliaKimMurphy 3 года назад

Hello! Thank you for your comment. The reason I didn’t post any prices is because they change all the time and even when I was searching the tickets prices were all different. It’s very easy to Google the current rates if you wish. Also it’s all different currencies so doesn’t really make sense :)
