Summer Jobs in Ticket Sales, the Café, and Rentals at Odense Aafart

Are you familiar with the phrase “sailing up the river”? Then keep reading.

At Odense Aafart, we have been sailing on the Odense River since 1882. We have proud traditions, but we work every day to create modern experiences. What began as a transport service for the few has evolved into experiences and unforgettable memories for many.

Today, we offer both classic river cruises focused on tranquility and nature, as well as events such as wine tastings, cocktail cruises, and live music on the river, along with tour boat rentals for special occasions and corporate events. We also rent out pedal boats by the hour.

What all our activities have in common is that hospitality is at the heart of everything we do. In short: we make people happy.
