    We have used the ferry and driven the roads. Ferry every time for us, with a nights bed for free. Nothing to complain about at all.

  • "Good ferry trip Oslo to Copenhagen "

    Hi we used the DFDS ferry from Copenhagen to Oslo and returned four days later, found the ferries very clean with help staff, only a couple of comments to improve things which I found slightly disappointing, the on place to get a decent cup of tea was in the Seven seas buffet lounge which you can only access by either paying for the evening buffet or breakfast buffet, all other bars/restaurants have a good selection of fruit teas or earl gray but no normal type tea. None of the staff thought to access the Seven seas lounge and grab some normal tea bags. The other item was the limited menu in the little Italy restaurant both the steak restaurant and the Italian restaurant share the same kitchen area and when asked if they could do a side order of chips the said they were not available in the Italian restaurant even though several orders for chips passed our table into the stake restaurant. These are just small things but would have finished a great trip on the ferries.

  • "Superb!"

    Great way to travel from Norway to Denmark. Couldn’t fault Direct Ferries in any way. Great value for money. Lovely cabin (loved having a window) super food, friendly staff and great shop on board. Would definitely recommend this over a flight if you can make time.

  • "Fantastic crossing but dangerous disembarkation."

    We loved this overnight rip to Oslo. We were able to board just after lunch and so we walked straight through no hassle . Our cabin was the basic but had everything we needed for the one night. The ferry was full to the brim of Japanese travellers and a lot was catered towards them to suggest that this was a regular occurrence. The only two down falls were that we had to wait around for a table in the morning for breakfast despite getting there for 7am as it was heaving and the exiting of the ferry was horrendous as we came down the lift with our cases and it opened up into a huge crush foyer on the 5th deck where we couldn't turn back or forward and were trapped in a huge crush where myself and husband tried our best to protect out children from the crushing pressure if stupid tourists trying to push towards an exit that wasn't open saying 'in group, in group's as an excuse to crush you further. We live in Merseyside and this experience was harrowing. We have travelled on DFDS many times before from Britain and the exit has always there been a very orderly queue.

    We had exceptional accomodations, good food,and wonderful service.the staff were all so helpful and friendly. The outdoor bars were so enjoyable. While smoking was generally not allowed, there was enough space for those of us who haven't yet kicked the habit,. We would recommend travelling this way to Norway .

  • "Wonderful trip!"

    I had a lovely time on my first cruise with you and would do it again for sure. The cabin I was assigned could have used a bit of freshening (stains on sofa). And free wifi should be expanded beyond the customer service desk--but all in all it was a great way to travel & would highly recommend..

  • "Fantastic Voyage"

    This overnight trip is the best way to travel from Copenhagen to Oslo (or visa versa). The ship was pristine, the staff wonderful and the food excellent. We upgraded to a Commodore class cabin which was well worth the extra cost, double bed, hot shower, TV, fridge with complimentary water, chocolates and sparkling wine also a large window for viewing that fantastic scenery. Commodore class also has separate breakfast dining (the breakfasts were amazing). If you opt for the all you can eat evening buffet dining you will not be disappointed although you will queue at peak times, the food is plentiful however and will not run out. Views of the Fjords are amazing and I would recommend taking an early breakfast so you can get up on deck to take full advantage of the views. A fantastic voyage, I am now a cruise convert!

  • "Okay, I guess"

    Ship's facilities include several restaurants, a not-so-cheap arcade room, some stores, a pool area that may suit families but not attractive for couples, and an extremely overpriced massage. The main issue I had is the fact the room description was in Norwegian, and I could not find an English one. I've ordered a 'suite' with explanation that I understood as double bed, but it came with bunks so me and my wife shared a single-person bed... :| The room had a single power outlet, so bare in mind for those who'd like to utilize several electric components (laptop/tablet/phones etc).
