NORTHERN LIGHTS PROMISE – Free 6 or 7-day voyage if the aurora borealis doesn’t occur on your 12-day voyage!*
This is the cruising, travel and holiday experience of a lifetime and easily one of the world’s greatest journeys.
Your special trip starts at Glasgow Airport for your non-stop flight to Bergen. You will spend the next 12 days on Hurtigruten’s Classic Round Voyage – following the stunning Norwegian coastline – North to Kirkenes close to the Russian Border. Here the ship turns around and heads South back to Bergen. You will visit 34 ports of call – major highlights include crossing the Arctic Circle twice, Ålesund, Trondheim, Tromsø, and the Lofoten Islands to name just a few. We hope one of the many highlights will be sightings of the Aurora Borealis – the Northern Lights – which can be seen North of the Arctic Circle where you will spend half of your trip.
There are many incredible optional excursions such as dog sledging, snowmobiling, a visit to the Snow Hotel and North Cape, Europe’s most Northernmost point!
Admire the spectacular and awe-inspiring sights from the deck or panoramic lounges in great style and comfort on board MS Nordkapp, your Hurtigruten ship – a fascinating combination of first class passenger ship and working vessel.
This is a trip that you will remember and savour for a very long time!
