Kiel to Oslo is Color Line's overnight cruise-ferry linking northern Germany directly with the Norwegian capital, a passage of around twenty hours that crosses the Skagerrak and finishes with a beautiful sail up the Oslofjord. The route is run by large cruise-ferries with en-suite cabins, restaurants, bars, shops, a spa and entertainment, so the long crossing feels like a proper mini-cruise rather than just a transfer. The ships carry cars, motorhomes, coaches and foot passengers, sailing in the afternoon and arriving the following day. For travellers heading into Norway from central Europe it saves a long drive through Denmark and Sweden, delivering you straight into central Oslo with your vehicle. The scenic fjord approach and the relaxed onboard atmosphere make it a memorable way to begin a Norwegian trip.
