Cruising the fjords with Hurtigruten

Explore the fjords of Norway with Hurtigruten and Bergen as a starting point.

A cruise with Hurtigruten along the Norwegian fjords is like no other. The cruises offer you the chance to take your own path, or pursue one of the many organized adventures. Through the escorted and unescorted voyages you will get a real feel of the way of life of Norway in several unusual ways.

You'll have the prospect to "rub elbows" with the locals, visit a reindeer-herding family and gain knowledge of the way of life of the modern Sámi, even take pleasure in reindeer bouillon and biscuits in a Sámi tent. Choose from a dog sledding expedition, to an evening of Norwegian folk songs, hymns and classical music.
