Oslofjord Dinner Cruise on a sailing ship

Posted By : Brenda_K
Amazing views and all you can eat shrimp, crayfish and crab buffet. It would be perfect if there was a commentary so you could know what sights you are looking at.

Two ships sailed at the same time, ours, the Christiana, and Helen, from deck 4, in front of the City Hall. Ours was peaceful, with soft recorded music and family and friends talking, taking photographs. The other was a party boat, with loud live music, people cheering, yelling (even “mooning” at us). Both were running in motors and not sails, that were nowhere to be seen.

The ship was fully booked and we had to wait standing until the captain found us a place, on a table that had been added, wich we shared with a family of three.

It was a smooth tour around the fjord. When the buffet was ready, we had to go downstairs, through a steep, narrow stair, to grab bread, butter, lettuce and whole cold shrimps; after removing the head and shell, they were rather small (cocktail size or U-30).

The bar had wine, champage, beer, soft drinks, tea, coffee and water for sell. It was getting cloudy and the captain did his best to place us behind a clear spot, but around 9:00 he couldn’t avoid the rain anymore and we all rush down to the windowless ship cask. A Russian or Polish group started playing guitar and singing softly, very nicely.

After about 30 minutes the rain stopped and we all emerged, using the ship’s blankets to sit on the wer benches, in time to see the return to harbor.

We really enjoyed our dinner cruise. The crew was very pleasant and professional. The food was good but it is only seafood and bread. Some kind of salad would have been nice. This dinner cruise was a good value.

My only recommendation is that the information from TripAdvisor should contain the cruise company name, Troll, in more places on the confirmation. We had trouble figuring out which ship it was.

I am giving 4 stars simply for the fact that the captain put up with our shenanigans in feeding the seagulls, that created a swarm around the boat 😂 The advertisement was a bit misleading as this was not a working sailboat - which we were expecting. The shrimp/crayfish/crab claw buffet was subpar but the crew were all young and friendly, and we met some great people from around world.

The food was very tasty and hit the spot. The boat ride takes you though charming little islands and I am in love with the wooden red houses ❤️

The crew were brilliant and so much food, most of us went round 3 times and there was still food left over. Scenery wasn't spectacular, in fact quite boring.

Great scenery a good solid boat. The food was good. Wish they had narrated the cruise, it would have made it more interesting.
