After crossing Denmark to Copenhagen catch the ferry to Oslo.

Spend a night or two in Copenhagen enjoying its many attractions before embarking on the ferry crossing to Oslo, Norway's capital city, a lovely city in a beautiful setting at the head of the Oslo Fjord. The ferry across the waters of the Kattegat and Kagerrak which separate Denmark from Sweden and Norway takes 16 and a half hours. Two ferries operate the Oslo to Copenhagen ferry route on a daily basis, departing from the two cities in the early evening and arriving at their destination next morning. Cars must check in no later than 30 minutes before departure.
Great two night cruises between Copenhagen Oslo |
The two ferries which operate the Oslo to Copenhagen ferry crossing are more like floating hotels than ferries. The Scandinavians have become accustomed to treating these ferries as places to enjoy some time away from home, and the facilities they offer have developed accordingly.
The Crown of Scandinavia was built in 1994 and can accommodate 1900 passengers and 450 cars. There are no fewer than 11 bars, cafes and restaurants offering something for everyone. Add to this a cinema, nightclub, disco and shops, plus a range of comfortable en suite cabins and the journey between Oslo and Copenhagen is bound to be fun and relaxing. If you must work there are even conference facilities on board.
Ferry duties on the Oslo Copenhagen route are shared by the sister ship the Pearl of Scandinavia. This ship carries 2000 passengers and 350 cars. Both ships enjoy similar facilites, so whichever one you take on the overnight journey from Denmark to Sweden you will experience the same level of comfort.
