The Norwegian Fjord Cruise Experience
With its deep inlets carved into landscape where mountains fall to the sea at sheer angles, Norway simultaneously takes your breath away and demands your respect. On a Norwegian cruise, you will see some of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders, coupled with captivating Nordic culture.
On the course of your Norwegian Fjord cruise, you will stop at ports throughout the region and discover what life is really like deep in the fjords of Norway. Timber houses sit beside the deep water and, when snow falls, the land is transformed into an inimitable alpine world. As the cool water shimmers outside, relax in the warmth of your Celebrity Cruises ship with a serene spa experience – there is no better place for true calm and reflection.
Exploration Both High and Low
On Norwegian cruises, you will stop at the port of Bergen, where you can explore one of Europe’s largest aquariums as well as streets lined with coffee shops to warm you in the fresh Nordic atmosphere. History buffs will be in their element on this leg of their Norwegian Fjord cruise, with cultural highlights that include the fabulous Edvard Greig museum - perfectly preserved since the iconic composer’s death in 1907.
In charming Flåm, you can ride The Flåm Railway through some of the country’s most spectacular scenery, including cascading waterfalls and Scandinavian houses clinging to hillsides. There is more alpine excitement to come when your fjord cruise arrives in Alesund, a picture-perfect port that is distinctly Art Nouveau. See real Viking boats, museums, and scale the 418 steps to the stop of the Aksla viewing point.
From City to Fjord
You will find it hard to choose between the city of Oslo and the magnificent Geiranger Fjord as your favourite place to be on your Norway cruise. At Geiranger, sail to the foot of the Skageflå mountain before heading to the top for a truly stunning view across the landscape.
When your Norwegian cruise docks in Oslo, you’ll want to explore the clifftop Akershus Fortress as well as the historical 700-year old streets and buildings. Very few settings in the world inspire and enchant like Scandinavia – join us on a Norway cruise and find out why.
