Ports of Call
Situated in the heart of spectacular fjord country, Alesund is a fishing center covering three islands. This area is well worth visiting for dramatic mountain views and Art Nouveau architecture.

In Amsterdam, art and flowers bloom with equal abandon in a palette of colors as rich as Rembrandt's. Your first stop should be the Rijksmuseum. But we warn you, with the world's largest collection of Rembrandts, Van Goghs and other priceless Dutch masterpieces, you may miss the very regal home of the Royal House of Orange (the Town Hall), the little house that hid Anne Frank, the fine gabled mansions that line the Golden Bend and the piles of golden cheeses in Amsterdam's floating market.

Andalsnes is your ending point for a ride on the Trollstigvein (troll's path), a zig-zag drive up mountains and over waterfalls that's out of this world!

Off the coast of Norway, located between Spitzbergen and the mainland, lies bird-filled Bear Island. Enjoy cruising past the beauty of this impressive coastline at the top of the world.

Once Norway's capital, today you see at every turn evidence of its former glory as Norway's greatest shipping port. The Hanseatic League set up trading operations in Byrggen (Old Bergen) in the 14th century.

The fairy tale city of Hans Christian Andersen enchants and charms. The Little Mermaid welcomes you to Denmark's capital. Fall under the spell of a whole cast of magical castles: Amelianborg Palace, home of the Danish Royals, Rosenberg Castle and its dazzling Royal Jewels, and in nearby Elsinore, the castle haunted by Hamlet. Then explore the fantasy of Tivoli Gardens.

Little Flam is the starting point for Europe's most daring train ride. Catch a seat and then catch your breath as the narrow-gauge train huffs and puffs up 12 miles of narrow-gauge track, chugging through 21 tunnels and climbing more than 2,800 feet.
Back to Top
Geirangerfjord is the quintessential fjord. Mountain glaciers, a postcard village and every form of waterfall. Little cascades. Medium gushers. And giant flumes of water spilling down 2,000 feet of rock face to co-join with the salt waters below.
Back to Top
The Lofoten Islands are the western remnants of great mountains that were worn away by glaciers. Lying entirely above the Arctic Circle, they are uninviting and gloomy in winter. But in summer, their spectacular sky piercing architecture puts this archipelago in a league all alone.
Your welcome to the most northerly town in Europe will be a lot warmer than the latitude would imply. Located at 70 degrees 40 minutes North, Hammerfest has continuous daylight from May through July.

Hellesylt is the jumping off point for shore excursions in Geiranger.

It looks like the end of the earth -- and it is. Or at least the end of Europe. The North Cape is the last vestige of continental Europe before the North Pole. It's a strange and desolate place where from May through August, the sun never goes down.

Here you can sample seafood that is out of this world while visiting the picturesque fishing villages of the Norwegian Riviera. Located at the southernmost tip of Norway, Kristiansand offers some of Norway's best beaches and boating areas.

The island of Spitzbergen lies just a few hundred miles from the North Pole. Most of the inhabitants are Russian miners who co-exist with polar bears, reindeer, arctic fox, white whales, walruses and seals.
Back to Top
This unique fjord surrounds you with magnificent mountain peaks and glacial vistas. Listen to the giant glaciers groan as they give birth to icebergs (it's called "calving") which drop with a huge roar into the sea.
Back to Top
Molde's long summer days produce a colorful profusion of flowers which fills the air. Explore Viking history in the renowned Romsdal Museum.

Svalbard means cold land, which is what the Vikings thought of Spitzbergen when they named the archipelago in 1194 A.D.
Back to Top
Climb through mountain valleys and pristine lake country to reach the very edge of a huge glacier. Stand in blue caves and listen to the eerie music of the huge frozen rivers as they follow their course to the sea.

Oslo offers a wealth of museums and festivals. Don't miss the Museum of Folk Arts with an 11th century stave church, a museum holding Kon-Tiki, the raft Thor Heyerdahl sailed across the Pacific on and the world-famous Viking Ship Museum.

Sandane is the jumping off point for guests participating in onboard shore excursions.

Tromso is the unofficial capital of the Arctic. It's also a great place to "hang out," as many young trendsetters have found. With sidewalk cafes, strolling musicians and a summer-long arts festival, it's like Portofino in the Arctic.
Back to Top
Trondheim exudes history from every pore of her stave churches and cobbled streets. Take in the splendid Nidaros Domen, built in 1066 over the grave of St. Olaf. It's the most magnificent cathedral in Scandinavia. The Royal Family's vacation palace is here too. It's the largest wooden building in Norway.
