As spring arrives and the days get longer, Oslo comes alive with a vibrant energy. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, there’s no better time to explore the city’s exciting Easter activities. Our Guest Relations Supervisor, Ida-Sofie, has handpicked 5-must try experiences this Easter in Oslo. From relaxing sauna cruises to Easter mysteries, here are her top must try experiences:
Floating Sauna – KOK Sauna Cruise
Relax in a floating sauna on the fjord as you take in breathtaking sight from of Oslo city from the ocean. The KOK Sauna Cruise offers a unique experience that’s perfect year-round, but there’s something extra special about enjoying it during Easter when the city’s energy is buzzing with springtime life. Whether you’re with friends, family, or colleagues, this unique activity lets you unwind as you slowly float through the Oslofjord, and, when you’re ready, jump into the refreshing fjord to cool off.
The journey on this sauna boat is just as much about the experience as it is about the destination. The slow-paced cruise, paired with the warmth of the sauna, creates a calming atmosphere you won’t want to miss.
