Viking history, pristine fjords and outdoor recreation await passengers on cruises in Norway. Set at the head of a 60-mile fjord, Oslo is the oldest of the Scandinavian capitals and offers a wealth of cultural attractions, such as the Viking Ship Museum, the 200-plus-year-old Hadeland Glassworks, the Munch Museum and Akershus Castle, a great spot for views of the city. Bergen holds fascinating attractions such as the 12th-century Fantoft Stave Church; Haakon's Hall, where Norwegian kings were crowned; and Troldhaugen, the lakeside home of composer Edvard Grieg.
Eidfjord is a gateway to Hardangervidda, Norway's largest national park, and Geiranger offers great hiking to waterfalls and scenic overlooks. Tromso lies far north of the Arctic Circle and is home to Polaria, an environmental center that educates visitors on Arctic wildlife and ecology. In Flam, cruise passengers can ride a mountain train that spirals through tunnels and over rivers.
Norway is featured on Northern Europe cruises, which sail from late May through August.
On cruises to Norway, you'll experience long hours of daylight.
If you must fly a very long distance to reach your port of departure, we suggest that you arrive at the port city at least one or two days in advance of your Norway cruise. This will give you time to rest and get oriented before boarding the ship. Most cruise lines offer pre-cruise hotel packages.
