Copenhagen Guide

Copenhagen Ferry Port

The Danish capital of Copenhagen is found on the eastern coast of the island of Zealand, a large landmass connected to both Denmark and Sweden by a series of spectacular bridges that span the chilly waters of the Oresund Strait. Established by the Vikings in the 10th century, the city has evolved into a sprawling, modern metropolis that often scores highly in quality of life surveys. Though Copenhagen has become a powerhouse of European economy in recent years, it has managed to retain its reputation as an environmentally friendly city with plenty of green parks and open-spaces found between the lattice of streets. The cityscape is separated into neighbourhoods that possess their own unique character, from the medieval architecture of the inner city to the ornately carved 18th Century mansions found in the area of Frederiksstaden. The port of Copenhagen is found in the north-eastern district of Indre By, its maze of docks and quays completely surrounding the mouth of the canal that flows through the heart of the city and into the Oresund Strait. The ferry terminal here is a building of modern design that sits on a small pier opposite the long Langelinie quay. The port can be reached via the O2 highway that completely encircles the downtown district of the city. Buses regularly run along this route, stopping at various locations throughout Copenhagen including to a station directly outside the entrance of the harbour. The Nordhavn train station can be found nearby too. From here passengers can travel to and from all corners of the city or further into the towns that sit on the outskirts. Currently one passenger service operates from the port in Copenhagen. A DFDS Seaways line makes the lengthy trip up the Kattegat Strait to Oslo in the south of Norway. It’s a north-bound route that traces the ragged coast of Sweden before entering the extensive Skagerrak region of the Baltic Sea.


Oslo Guide

Oslo Ferry Port

Found on the south east coast of Norway, Oslo ferry port serves almost seven million travellers every year. The port is situated in a stunning fjord and connects the Norwegian capital to both Denmark and Germany.

What is there to do in Oslo?

Thousands of people have relocated to Oslo, and after visiting, it’s easy to see why. Stunning architecture, a bustling waterfront area and an array of fascinating museums make Norway’s capital one of the fastest growing cities in the world. The culture and amenities are expected of a capital city, but it’s Oslo’s surrounding nature that separates it from other major capitals; endless countryside engulfs the city centre and lusciously green parks provide the ideal setting for a leisurely stroll in the afternoon sun. Vigelandsparken is the standout park in terms of aesthetics, attracting thousands of visitors per day. As well as the beauty and adventure belonging to the city, Oslo’s main drawing point is the proximity of its attractions. The city centre is easily walkable in a day or two, which is typically the desirable option considering the impressive infrastructure and refreshingly clean environment. There are walking and bike tours on offer, showcasing the most popular and highly regarded sights – the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet House is a particular highlight. If witnessing the main attractions doesn’t sound too appealing, there are also taste tours which take visitors around the most highly rated restaurants and food chains in the city.

How do visitors get around Oslo?

There is a comprehensive public transport system consisting of buses, trams, trains and the metro so the city is very easy to navigate around. The two main hubs for public transport are Oslo Central Station and Nationaltheateret, the latter being the primary underground connection.
