Cruise Package
On our 10-night Wonders of the Fjords journey, discover the locations our luxurious expedition ship was meant to explore as you sail through the land of the midnight sun through breathtaking landscape. We set off from Tromso, 250 miles above the Arctic Circle, stopping at the hospitable Lofoten Islands before entering fjords that range in size from Norway's longest,
Sognefjord, to possibly the most stunning, Geirangerfjord, from one of the narrowest that a ship can pass, Trollfjorden. Before turning south, you'll wind your way through massive glaciers, over narrow channels, through emerald-green waters,
past stunning waterfalls, and around craggy headlands. You'll have been to far-off places and seen some of Norway's wildest nature in boutique fashion by the time we get to Amsterdam.
