Norwegian coast Hurtigruten cruise - 11 days

Experience amazing highlights such as the Geirangerfjord*, the Arctic circle, the spectacular Lofoten Islands, the narrow Raftsund & the dramatic Trollfjord*, the North Cape, the Arctic towns Bodo & Tromso and the picturesque coastal towns Bergen, Alesund & Trondheim.

Hurtigruten offers a fascinating mixture of first-class passenger vessels and local working ships. Hurtigruten has been part of the country’s very lifeline for over a century. Calling at 34 ports, most never visited by commercial cruise liners, the ships deliver freight, post and passengers to remote communities, some of which are home to just a few hundred people. Sailing along this beautiful coastline, through magical fjords to enchanted islands, you will enjoy a genuine, friendly and unpretentious voyage which is truly Norwegian.

Duration 11 nights. Starting & finishing in Bergen. You can add exciting land excursions en route. *Summer season only. Read more:
