Picturesque to a fault, Geirangerfjord has inspired folklore, fairy-tale and film for centuries. Disney's animated film Frozen took many visual cues from this wonderland of waterfalls and fjords.

This wonderful stage of your sailing itinerary takes you through, and into, some of Norway’s cherished glacier-carved scenery and beautiful natural features, with plenty of historical sites en route.
Village stop Hellesylt allows for further exploration to a famous waterfall, an up-close encounter with a glacier and the beauty of Jostedal Glacier National Park.

Sail the glass-like waters of this focal point of Norway’s wonderful network of stunning fjords. You are welcomed to step ashore, or on to a smaller craft, to explore its natural beauty more closely.

Day 5
Olden, Norway
When you reluctantly depart from this peaceful village of the picturesque Nordfjord, you'll no doubt have some breathtaking and unforgettable scenes etched into your memory, and your camera roll too.
Giant waterfalls cascade the mountains, mineral-rich Lake Lovatn glints with a milky turquoise sheen and the Kjenndalen Glacier reveals a green-tinged glow.

Innvikfjorden, Norway (Cruise-by)
A sense of wonderment awaits as you sail Innvikfjorden, just one highlight of Norway’s beautiful network of fjords. The villages and farmsteads along its coastline really put things into perspective.

Day 5
Nordfjord, Norway (Cruise-by)
Sailing offers by the far the best way to appreciate the scale and majesty of this ancient region, where the palette of blues, greys, and greens are occasionally punctuated by an ambitious hiker, or a wild pony grazing at the Fjord’s edge. Selected branches of the Nordfjord even resemble a tropical paradise, with near-transparent waters fringing beaches composed entirely of pure white sand.
Day 6
Bergen, Norway
Your fascinating ‘Gateway to the Fjords’ is Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen. Its maritime trade and oil industry remain vital to the economy and it’s a thriving epicentre of culture and history.
