Ports of Call
Cruise from Southampton
- Haugesund: Coastal city linked with Viking heritage. Visit the Haraldshaugen monument, walk along the waterfront, or take a short boat trip through the narrow sounds. It’s a lively start to Norway’s coast.
- Olden: Nestled among green valleys and glaciers. Journey to Briksdal Glacier, see the turquoise lake of Loen, or take the Skylift for views deep into Nordfjord. It’s dramatic yet serene.
- Innvikfjorden (Scenic Cruising): Deep fjord cruising past cliffs and waterfalls. Watch for farms clinging to slopes and reflections on still water. It’s a day made for cameras and calm.
- Alesund: Art Nouveau architecture meets fishing heritage. Climb Aksla viewpoint for expansive views, explore the town’s museum, or wander canals lined with pastel buildings. The scenery seamlessly blends town and sea.
- Leknes (Lofoten Island): Arctic landscapes with beaches and mountains. Visit Haukland Beach, explore fishing villages, or take a drive through dramatic island roads. It feels remote but welcoming.
- Trondheim: Norway’s historic capital with Nidaros Cathedral at its heart. Cross the old town bridge, walk Bakklandet’s lanes, or visit the Archbishop’s Palace—a city of stories and science.
- Andalsnes: Gateway to Romsdalen valley and the Trollstigen road. Take the Rauma Railway for spectacular scenery, or hike to Rampestreken viewpoint. Nature is close everywhere you turn.
- Stavanger (Norway): Compact port with cobbled lanes and modern energy. Visit the Petroleum Museum, stroll Old Stavanger, or join a Lysefjord cruise to see Pulpit Rock. Both charm and adventure await.
