Some of the best moments of cruising are the days spent at sea where you can relax and enjoy the wonderful programme of events and activities we have planned for you.

Cruising Lysefjord

Arrival – Early Evening  →  Departure – Late Evening

The Lysefjord is a spectacular example of the Norwegian fjords' natural beauty. Carved into the landscape by glacier movement in the Ice Age, Lysefjord is lined by tall mountains and dramatic cliff faces – some soaring over 1,000 metres high. On a clear day it is possible to see the famous Preikestolen – a huge 604 metre-high flat mountain plateau – and Kjeragbolten, a large rock wedged in one of Mount Kjerag’s crevices.

Leirvik

Arrival – Early Morning  →  Departure – Late Afternoon

On the island of Stord, between Bergen and Haugesund, lies the small town of Leirvik, a friendly and authentic slice of western Norway. It has long been a regional hub, with a history shaped by fishing, shipbuilding and trade, with a town centre that is easy to explore on foot, including a lively marina, shops and cafés. Close by is the Sunnhordland Museum, where you can see exhibitions on local culture and traditions, including historic boats and houses, and the impressive steel Storddøra monument that has propellors that rotate in the wind and sparkle in the sun.

Cruise Akrafjord

Arrival – Late Afternoon  →  Departure – Late Afternoon

The unspoilt and tranquil waters of Akrafjord, located in western Norway offer one of the country’s most breathtaking cruising experiences. As your smaller ship glides through the still, mirror-like waters, sheer mountains rise on either side, interspersed with small hamlets dotting its shores. The main attraction of Akrafjord is Langfoss, one of Norway’s most beautiful waterfalls, which cascades over 600 metres down the mountainside directly into the fjord below, best seen from the decks of your ship.

Cruising Åkrafjord & Langfoss Waterfall

Arrival – Late Afternoon  →  Departure – Early Evening

Enjoy an incredible scenic cruise along the Åkrafjord past the mighty Langfoss Waterfall, where it’s almost possible to feel the spray of this magnificent natural wonder. Widely regarded as one of Norway's best waterfalls – in fact, CNN once voted as it as one of the top ten in the world – the Langfoss is a truly unforgettable sight.

Skjolden

Arrival – Early Morning  →  Departure – Late Afternoon

The idyllic village of Skjolden is located at the end of Norway’s longest fjord, the Sognefjorden, where the deep blue waters contrast against the green landscape and red-roofed houses, creating a summer kaleidoscope of colour. Spectacular waterfalls tumble down steep cliffsides into the fjord below, and close by are the magnificent Jotunheimen Mountains and Jostedalsbreen Glacier, which you will have opportunities to explore on a tour from your ship. You’ll also be ideally placed to enjoy a hike to the tiny hut where world-famous Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein exiled himself to write some of his most important works.

Cruising Lustrafjord

Arrival – Late Afternoon  →  Departure – Late Evening

Gently sloping green hills, steep mountains, and charming villages surround the jewel-like waters of Lustrafjord, offering miles of incredible natural beauty. As you sail along the fjord, you’ll witness the majestic Feigefossen, one of Norway’s highest waterfalls, at its most powerful in the summer months, and the country’s oldest remaining Stave church, built in the 12th century. From your ship’s decks, you may have the opportunity to spot marine life such as seals, otters, and dolphins, along with magnificent birdlife flying overhead.

Nordfjordeid

Arrival – Early Morning  →  Departure – Late Afternoon

Nestled among lush green landscapes and climbing gently up forested hills, Nordfjordeid offers a postcard-perfect scene at the tranquil end of Eidsfjorden, an arm of the breathtaking Nordfjord. Though small, this charming town is rich in history and deep-rooted traditions, making it as captivating to explore as it is to admire from the deck of your smaller-sized ship. Stroll through its delightful old town, relax in its scenic parks, and take in its picturesque coastline. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the fjordland, Nordfjordeid is an ideal gateway to some of the region’s most spectacular natural wonders. From the striking Briksdal and Kjenndal glaciers to the thrilling Loen Skylift and serene Hornindal Lake, unforgettable adventures await at every turn.

Cruising Nordfjord

Arrival – Late Afternoon  →  Departure – Early Evening

Stretching over 66 nautical miles from the westernmost point in Norway, overlooking the Sunnmøre Alps, to Jostedalsbreen, the largest glacier in mainland Europe, picturesque Nordfjord has postcard-perfect ice-blue waters framed by towering peaks covered in lush greenery. As your ship navigates into Innvikfjord, a narrow branch of Nordfjord, the landscape becomes fairytale-like, with the changing colours of forested hillsides leading down to tranquil waters, cascading waterfalls, and remote villages and farms dotted along the fjord edge. Sailing along these fjords in summer also offers chances to spot vibrant apple orchards from the decks of your ship.

Cruising by Hornelen

Arrival – Early Evening  →  Departure – Late Evening

A scenic cruise alongside Hornelen offers the opportunity to get closer to Norway's highest sea cliff. Standing at a height of 860m, it rises steeply above the Nordfjord and has been used for centuries as a landmark for passing ships. It is said that a troll lives in the northeast corner of the mountain, an area known as Juratinden by local Norwegians.
