Northern Lights: Venture into the Arctic Cruise - a 5-day cruise from Bergen to Tromso

An exciting voyage along the Norwegian coast from Bergen, gateway to the fjords across the Arctic Circle to Tromsø, capital of Arctic Norway.

No Single Supplement!

Bergen, birthplace of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, is where this delightful voyage begins. After several brief calls along the unspoilt coastline, the ship heads across the open sea to the delightful Art Nouveau town of Ålesund.

Bergen Harbour

Trondheim, Norway’s former capital city is your next stop and is in complete contrast with its wooden buildings, brightly painted wharves and warehouses and the 14th century Nidaros Cathedral.

Moskenes

Sense the buzz of anticipation as you cross the Arctic Circle and reach the legendary Lofoten Islands later in the day. At Svolvær, enjoy an after dinner stroll or perhaps visit the world’s first Ice Gallery ‘Magic Ice’ which illustrates tantalising tales about the islands and their people, with dramatically lit ice sculptures and music. Your voyage ends in lively Tromsø.

Extended Itinerary
To increase the chances of seeing the Northern Lights and soak up Tromsø’s captivating atmosphere, we recommend an extra night at the end of your voyage. This would also, weather permitting, allow the possibility of joining our optional dog sledging excursion, a truly exhilarating experience.

Special Occasion Voyages
Christmas: Celebrate a tradional Norwegian Christmas with Christmas dinner and carol singing onboard
New Year: The ships usually stay in port for New Year Celebrations and fireworks and local entertainment may be arranged
