Do what all Scandinavians love - cruise! The ferry to and from Oslo no longer docks right in the city centrebut still has a regular bus service straight to the centre. The ferry leaves for Oslo at 17.00 every day and arrives in Copenhagen around 9.00 in the morning. You can also get here by ferry from Poland (Swinoujscie) several times a week.
Crown of Scandinavia departs from Oslo to Copenhagen everyday, leaving Oslo at 5pm and arriving in Copenhagen at 9.15am. I personally think it was a boring ferry. I haven't been on many ferries, just Norwegian Wind to Alaska and this one. There's no way you can compare these two! I went to a club on Crown of Scandinavia and old people were dancing to 70's music. The best thing about it is probably the duty free shop :) The cabin can cost from $100 to 400 depending on what kind of room you want.
Rules:
Check in Opens: 2 hours before departure
Boarding Starts: 1 hour before departure
End Boarding Ends: 30 minutes before departure

To go to Norway, we went by ferry from Copenhagen/DK to Oslo/Norway (passing Helsingborg).
On this route you have the possibility of travelling either with CROWN OF SCANDINAVIA or PEARL OF SCANDINAVIA. The two biggest vessels of the DFDS Seaways fleet.
The ships alternate every day and depart at 17:00 from both Oslo and Copenhagen passing Helsingborg on the way. There are departures from Helsingborg to Oslo each day at 19:00.

Ferrys to and from Denmark are not first class but they are nice and safe enough to travel. Beware... there's a lot of drinking on board but there's also great food, and they show movies!
