Oslo, Norway

Welcome to Oslo! Surrounded by mountains and the sea, the capital of Norway is surprisingly cosmopolitan. Admire Edvard Munch’s famed works at the National Gallery, explore the medieval Akershus Fortress and discover the world’s best-preserved Viking ships at the Viking Ship Museum. Enjoy a 2-night hotel stay to explore this exciting city.

 
Tromso, Norway

Board your one way flight from Oslo to Tromso. Embark your 11 day Norway & Scotland Expedition Cruise from Tromso to Glasgow onboard Hurtigruten MS Spitsbergen today.

 

 
Senja, Norway

Flaunting rugged mountains, sandy beaches, dark forests and idyllic fishing villages, Senja is sometimes called Norway-in-miniature. Here, visit a local community to learn about the Sami culture and what life is like in remote villages during the winter months. Free-roaming deer are known to wander around the island, so keep your eye out.

 
Vesteralen (Stokemarnes), Norway

Approaching the dramatically steep mountains of Lofoten by ship is an experience you’re unlikely to forget. As you sail towards this picturesque group of islands, the Expedition Team will seek out the best place for a nature landing, perhaps at a snow-covered beach.  

 
Lofoten (Svolvaer), Norway

In winter, the famous Lofoten Islands transform into a snow-covered wonderland. Opt to embark on a fishing trip from the main town of Svolvær, or relax in a traditional Nordic sauna before taking a thrilling polar plunge!

 
Svartisen, Norway

Today, sail into Holandsfjord and head towards the impressive Svartisen glacier, the second largest in Norway. If conditions allow, you will head ashore and take a hike for a closer view of this dual glacier, whose ice ranges in color from turquoise to dark blue.

 
At Sea (Cross the Artic Circle)

Welcome to the Arctic Circle! Home to immense, raw beauty, a journey here will have you discovering broad horizons, dense forests and snow-capped mountains. Keep your eyes peeled for polar bears, seals and Arctic foxes and, if you’re visiting at the right time of year, you may be lucky enough to witness the extraordinary Northern Lights.

 
At Sea (Coast of Helgeland)

As you sail south along the Coast of Helgeland, the soul-stirring scenery continues. Keep your camera at the ready as you pass through sheltered fjords and soaring mountains.

 
Lerwick (Shetland Islands), Scotland

The friendly fishing town of Lerwick is the capital of Scotland’s Shetland Islands. Spend some time exploring the narrow lanes, shopping for local whiskies, woollen sweaters and fudge. Or venture out of town to check out an Iron Age village. However you choose to spend your day, keep your eye out for seals along Lerwick’s beaches and local birdlife like red-throated divers, redshanks and curlews.

 
Kirkwall (Orkney), Scotland

Setting sail into Stromness, spend a day exploring the rich heritage and wildlife of Orkney. Check out the town’s museums and galleries or venture to the nearby capital of Kirkwall, to visit to regal St Magnus Cathedral or sample single malts at Highland Park Whiskey Distillery.

 
At Sea

Enjoy a relaxing day at sea.

 
Glasgow - Edinburgh, Scotland

Disembark MS Spitsbergen in Glasgow and enjoy a scenic rail journey to Edinburgh today. With its rich history and hidden cobblestoned alleyways, the capital of Scotland will leave you captivated.
