Hurtigruten
(formerly Norwegian
Coastal Voyage in the U.S. market) is a fleet of ferry
cruisers that operate year-round from Bergen to the North Cape of Norway. During
a 12-day round trip, the vessels stop at 34 ports. Passengers who don't have
time for the full itinerary can book one-way voyages of 7 days (northbound) or 6
days (southbound). It's also possible to buy short-haul ferry tickets between
individual ports. Optional shore excursions range from city sightseeing tours to
Zodiac, dogsled, and birdwatching trips.
Hurtigruten
also provides adventure cruises in the Arctic, the Lofoten Islands, Greenland,
and the Antarctic. (See our
Spitsbergen Cruise article and
photo gallery for a report of a delightful cruise aboard the 50-year-old MS
Nordstjernen.)
