Itinerary

Bergen
Your journey begins in Bergen, Norway's second largest city and gateway to the fjords. Founded in... more+ 1070, Bergen's architecture is influenced by the Hanseatic League, a thriving 14th-century German trading organisation. If you have time before your ship departs, visit the UNESCO-listed quays of the colourful Bryggen district, now a cobbled artisan quarter. Just across the street is the famous fish market, offering delicious seafood. You can also take the Fløibanen funicular up to the top of Mount Fløyen for a breathtaking view of the city. To make the most of your stay in Norway, don't forget that we can help you organise excursions before or after your trip, thanks to the Norway in a Nutshell programme. Before boarding, you can relax in the comfort of our terminal passenger lounge. Once on board, enjoy the first of many delicious meals prepared from fresh coastal produce as we leave Bergen and sail the old Viking route along the Hjeltefjord. You'll also meet your ship's coastal experts who will be your guides throughout our cruise of the Norwegian coastline, organising lectures, on-board activities and optional hikes.

Bergen Floro Maloy Torvik Alesund Molde
Enjoy an early morning in the magnificent Nordfjord, near Torvik. We will then round the Western... more+ Cape and approach Ålesund. Ålesund is famous for its superb Art Nouveau architecture and its Atlanterhavsparken, one of Northern Europe's largest seawater aquariums. If you travel with us in spring or winter, you'll spend much of the day exploring this picturesque town. In summer, we'll head to the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage-listed Geirangerfjord*, passing through some of the most beautiful scenery Norway has to offer. Once in the fjord, you may be lucky enough to see the famous Seven Sisters waterfalls tumbling down the cliffs. *Geirangerfjorden is replaced by Hjørundfjorden for these sailings: 2024: 5 June, 16 June, 27 June, 8 July, 19 July, 30 July, 10 August, 21 August 2025: 1 June, 12 June, 23 June, 4 July, 15 July, 26 July, 6 August, 17 August, 28 August
In spring, from April to May*, and in autumn, from September to October, your boat will sail to Hjørundfjord, hidden in the Sunnmøre Alps. A stopover is also planned in the picturesque village of Urke to admire the thousand-year-old farms, the fjord and the lush mountainsides. *Only on trips departing from 2025-26. The last port of the day is Molde. In summer, there may be just enough light to enjoy the incredible view of the 222 mountain peaks across the fjord known as the Molde Panorama. From mid-June to the end of August, the city's streets and gardens are adorned with fragrant roses of every colour, living up to its nickname of ‘City of Roses’.

Molde Kristiansund Trondheim Rorvik
On this part of the journey, we enter Norway's Trøndelag region, characterised by rolling hills,... more+ farmland and low-lying coastal villages. Founded by Viking chieftain Olav Tryggvason in 997, Trondheim is now Norway's third-largest city, with a mix of historic buildings and a thriving student population. You'll have three hours to explore Trondheim and its highlights, either on your own or on one of our optional excursions. Nidaros Cathedral, nicknamed ‘Our Lady of Norway’ because of its Gothic style, is considered to be the most sacred building in Norway. Close to the cathedral is the Archbishop's Palace, where the jewels of the Norwegian Crown are displayed. Nearby, the city's old bridge, the Gamle Bybro, spans the River Nidelva and marks the entrance to the old Hanseatic quarter of Bakklandet. The district's colourful wooden quays, set on stilts by the river, are now home to trendy restaurants. At the top of Bakklandet is the Kristiansten fortress, offering fine views over the city and the fjord.

Rorvik Bronnoysund Sandnessjoen Nesna Ornes Bodo Stamsund Svolvaer
We cross the Arctic Circle early in the morning to begin our discovery of the Norwegian Arctic.... more+ This is marked by a traditional ceremony that's sure to wake you up! Above the Arctic Circle, the sun is visible 24 hours a day in summer, while in winter your chances of seeing the Aurora Borealis increase considerably. At 10 o'clock we'll be calling at Ørnes, close to Norway's second largest glacier, Svartisen. The jetty here is famous for its Love Bank, where lovers declare their love by attaching a padlock. We then sail to Bodø, Northern Norway's second largest city, dominated by the peaks of the Børvass mountains. You can admire the fabulous street art or take an optional boat trip to the Saltstraumen, the world's most powerful maelstrom. This afternoon, the ship will enter the Lofoten archipelago. The 1,000-metre-high Lofoten Wall is an impressive sight on the horizon, as if it were there to greet us. The port of Stamsund is home to one of the largest fishing fleets on the islands. Activity is particularly intense from January to April, when Arctic cod, known locally as skrei, swim north from the Barents Sea to Vestfjord to spawn. As evening falls, the sight of rows of traditional fishing huts on stilts, known as rorbus, will mark your arrival in the pretty port of Svolvær, the main town on the Lofoten Islands.

You'll find Polaria, the world's most northerly aquarium, right on the waterfront. And there are plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from in the city centre, including Mack's Brewery and the Ølhallen pub, a popular local café. And don't forget the trendy cafés serving delicious cinnamon rolls and where baristas compete to create innovative works of coffee art.

Skjervoy Oksfjord Hammerfest Havoysund Honningsvag Kjollefjord Mehamn Berlevag
The ship will reach the town of Hammerfest on the island of Kvaløya early in the morning. In... more+ summer, the island is home to herds of reindeer, which migrate here in their thousands. You'll know we've arrived in Havøysund when you see the wind turbines at the famous Havøyglaven wind farm, which produces enough electricity to power 6,000 local homes. We arrive in Honningsvåg, the gateway to the North Cape, mid-morning. A monument in the shape of a globe marks the northernmost point of continental Europe. The optional excursion to the spectacular promontory is very popular, so early booking is recommended. Near the entrance to the village of Kjøllefjord, look out for Finnkirka, an impressive building-shaped rock formation. This ancient sacrificial site was once used by the Sámi natives. You can take an optional excursion to meet local Sámi, learn about their life as reindeer herders and listen to Joik folk songs. We reach Mehamn, our most northerly port of call, in the evening. If you visit in February and March, you'll be able to see tonnes of cod drying in the open air on wooden racks called hjell, mainly for export. The ship then sets sail for Berlevåg.

Keep an eye out for mantled crows and eagles. Once we reach Kirkenes after breakfast, you'll have travelled even further east than St Petersburg and Istanbul. You can choose from a number of optional excursions to explore the town. Kirkenes is where your cruise along the Norwegian coast changes direction and the ship heads south. Many of the places we visited at night will now be visible during the day. Back in Vardø, you can visit the solemn Witches' Memorial and the star-shaped Vardøhus fortress, built in 1737. The most northerly fortification in existence, it still belongs to the army.

After Finnsnes, early in the morning the ship will call at Harstad, where on the peninsula stands the church of Trondenes, the most northerly whitewashed medieval stone church in the world. Next comes our smallest port of call, Risøyhamn, then Sortland, where the landscape slowly changes from rolling hills to 1,000-metre-high mountains. Sailing through the Raftsund Strait, the captain can choose to take the ship into the narrow Trollfjord. The mountain walls will seem so close you'll think you can brush against them! To leave the fjord, the ship will have to rotate 180 degrees on the spot, then leave again. Don't forget to keep an eye out for eagles here too. We arrive in Svolvær in the evening. The huge mountain overlooking the town is called the Svolvær goat because of its supposed resemblance. We'll let you decide for yourself!

Admire the breathtaking scenery of the Seven Sisters mountain range, whose peaks reach heights of 1,100 metres. The story goes that seven beautiful troll princesses, fleeing an unwanted suitor, were surprised by the sunrise, which transformed them into the seven magnificent mountains you see today. And you won't want to miss Torghatten mountain, with its distinctive hole. A local legend explains why and how this hole in the mountain came to be. Ask your Coastal Expert to tell you! We'll reach Brønnøysund by mid-afternoon. Explore the bustling marina as you stroll along the Havnegata. At the heart of the town is Brønnøy Church: a neo-Gothic stone church dating from 1870.
