Tromso, Norway
  • Tromso, Norway
  • Skjervoy, Norway
Welcome to the historic Arctic capital of Tromso. If you've arrived in the morning or afternoon, you'll have time to explore the city before your ship departs in the early evening. Along the waterfront you'll find Polaria, a center exhibiting environmental research in the Arctic with a small aquarium. Take your pick from the many shops and restaurants in the city center, including Mack Brewery and favorite local watering hole Olhallen pub. There are also cafes offering delicious cinnamon buns where baristas create innovative coffee art. Across the fjord from where the ship docks, you should be able to see the iconic Arctic Cathedral with its beautiful stained-glass mosaic.

Hammerfest, Norway
  • Hammerfest, Norway
  • Havoysund, Norway
  • Honningsvag, Norway
  • Kjollefjord, Norway
  • Mehamn, Norway, Norway
  • Berlevag, Norway
The ship reaches the town of Hammerfest on the island of Kvaloya early in the morning. In summer, the island has herds of reindeer migrating here in their thousands. You'll know we've reached Havoysund when you see the wind turbines of the landmark Havoygavlen wind farm which produces enough electricity to power 6,000 local homes. At the top of Europe: We arrive at Honningsvag mid-morning, portal to the North Cape where a globe monument marks the top of continental Europe. An optional excursion will take you to North Cape from Honningsvag by bus, passing herds of reindeer on the way, depending on the season. Sami heartlands: Near the entrance of Kjollefjord village, look out for the striking, building-like rock formation Finnkirka, an ancient sacrificial site once used by the indigenous Sami. You can join an optional summer excursion to meet local Sami, learn about their life reindeer herding, and listen to joik folk songs. Continuing north: We reach our northernmost port of call, Mehamn, in the evening. If visiting in the months of February and March, you might spot tons of cod drying on outdoor wooden racks called hjell, mainly destined for export. The ship then sets off for Berlevag. On the way, we pass the tall Slettnes Lighthouse, the northernmost mainland lighthouse on Earth. ...

  • Batsfjord, Norway
  • Vardo, Norway
  • Vadso, Norway
  • Kirkenes, Norway
We call at Batsfjord and Vardo in the night, before docking at Vadso early in the morning. Looking to the skies: The area around Vadso is one of the most scenic and popular birdwatching spots in the Arctic, lying directly under the migration path of birds flying from east to west. Watch for hooded crows and sea eagles. Near the Norwegian border: Kirkenes is just a few miles from the Norwegian border. This is where your Norwegian coastal cruise ends and you'll have traveled further east than St. Petersburg and Istanbul. As we arrive in Kirkenes around 9 am, you might have some time to explore this fascinating town by yourself, ahead of your onward journey. Call in at the Varanger Museum, or why not book one of the post-programs at the Kirkenes Snow Hotel, staying either in a cozy Snow Suite or a wooden Gamme Cabin. ...
