Endless Days in Norway
May 22, 2026 — Jun 1, 2026
Starting from
LONDON GREENWICH → LEITH, EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND
10 Nights on Star Pride
Scenery lovers and active outdoorsy types will both find plenty to love on these fjord-focused cruises Norway is best known for. Take a cable car to a mountain peak overlooking Andalsnes and the Romsdal Alps, hike back down or go for a scenic train ride through the mountains and across the picturesque stone Kylling Bridge. Visit tiny Olden at the inner end of Nordfjord and hike to a glacier’s face, or take the Skylift to lofty views. Go mountain biking on Mount Fløyen in Bergen, or wander the shops at the colorful Hanseatic wharf. In Trondheim, you can do both – use the city’s free bikes for a ride around town to check out the emerging foodie scene. We’ll follow the fjord all the way to the sea and beyond, to the island of Frøya, where much of the world’s farmed fish is grown and tables are set with fresh crab, scallops, and local cheese. These are the kinds of immersive experiences that define the cruises Norway travelers seek: close encounters with fjords, mountains, and coastal culture.
