Luxury Norwegian Fjords Cruises
Commence on a nautical expedition to see awe-inspiring snowy mountains, charming fishing villages and colourful houses dotted along the coast with our luxury Norwegian Fjords cruise. It is definitely one to tick off the bucket list!
A cruise through the Norwegian Fjords offers one of the most imposing landscapes in the world. As the Fjords mountains appear on the horizon, be prepared for a surge of adventure. In the springtime, you’ll see glistening waterfalls crashing into cool waters as the snow melts away from the mountains, climb the towering heights of Pulpit Rock or immerse yourself in the captivating, indigenous culture.
Cities to visit
Visit Norway’s most beautiful city, Bergen. Learn of legendary tales as you go round the Bryggens museum before a stroll through the picture perfect streets of deep red and burnt orange houses. Ascend the funicular mountainside railway, 320 metres up to Floyen, where you will discover hiking paths and once-in-a-lifetime views of the city below. After a leisurely stroll back down, drinking in the cleanest of air, browse the famed fish market for some lunch!
Stavanger is a city of history and culture. There is no better location to enjoy Norway’s rich heritage than this former European Capital of Culture, which offers an astounding variety of museums, galleries, and events. Marvel at the 12th-century cathedral and don’t forget to visit the Swords in Rock monument; three enormous Viking swords, representing peace, unity, and freedom, commemorating the union of Norway.
If adventure is what you are after, take a jaunt into Flåm where you can experience the fjords up close. Hire a kayak and paddle near the plummeting waterfalls, dwarfed by the surrounding fjords. Encounter one of the most scenic train journeys on Flåm Railway as you scale up the high mountains for the finest views.
On a luxury Norwegian Fjords cruise, you will sail past the Seven Sisters waterfall, a sight not to be missed! Waking up at the crack of dawn is certainly worth it to see this amazing wonder as you glide into Geiranger. Once you have docked in Geiranger, a UNESCO World Heritage site full of bakeries and coffee shops, begin a trek along the 327 steps of the Waterfall Trail to discover trickling and tumbling waterfalls, such as the sublime Storfossen.

The Norwegian Fjords scenery is breath-taking. The spectacular fjords, waterfalls and glaciers make this my favourite cruise destination. There is no better feeling than waking up, enjoying breakfast on your balcony and watching the fjords sail past slowly. The Norwegian Fjords are great for a first time cruise experience.

Best Time To Visit The Norwegian Fjords
Visiting Norway’s breathtaking scenery can be done all year round. Generally, Norwegian Fjords season runs from early spring through to late September which gives you the option of quieter times in the later season. Go during spring for the best chance to see snow-capped mountains in their full glory. Winter months ensure a greater opportunity to view the Northern Lights.
Top tip: June and July are by far our recommendation of time of year to visit – warm weather and opportunities for daylight in the evening – even on deck at midnight its still not dark!
Picture this… wrapped up, sitting on your balcony delving into a gorgeous breakfast while gliding through the magical fjords.
