I chose this cruise as i wished to see first hand the northern lights. They appeared on two nights and the captain alerted your cabin immediately.
I had recommendation from people who had completed the coastal voyage on post ships. This cruise was definitely an “expedition” you need to be fit to attempt the hiking programmes and be aware of what it may be like to kayak and paddle board in ...
Never been to Norway before. HURTIGRUTEN is an excellent company that got great reviews that I now endorse that. At a difficult ( Covid) time, they were well organised both on and off board the ship. They had excellent staff members who no matter what their job was performed it cheerfully and professionally without exception. Nothing on any trip goes exactly to plan, but, any hiccups were dealt ...
We really wanted to experience the Arctic Circle and hopefully the Northern Lights and this cruise delivered in spades! The ship is small compared to others we have been on but the standards on board are exemplary. The cabin whilst on the small side (Polar Outside) was big enough with everything we needed, the cleanliness was superb and the shower was the best we have had on any ship. All the ...
Although we were sailing during the pandemic and there was more crew than guests, this meant the service and care to attention to every detail was second to none.
Northern Lights were witnessed and husky dog trails were just two of the amazing experiences on this delightful ship with amazing scenery, activities and exceptional staff.
Attention to detail was perfect from the restaurant staff ...
Chosen for the Northern Lights, the cruise became more about the scenery and overall experience on MS Maud. The boat was less than half full due to covid restrictions which no doubt helped as we didn't have to worry about queuing for excursions and received amazing service and support from all the crew. The excursions were well described and organised and mostly we were able to join everything we ...
Wanted to get away after last 18 months and visit Norway in style. It had to be a small ship and travel to places large ships cannot reach. Hurtigruten ticked all the boxes. Food, cabin and staff all fantastic. Best holiday on a cruise ships. Have travelled on many cruises and this was the best. It was so relaxing and could not find any fault. The enthusiastic and professional expedition team ...
My husband and I have long wanted to take the Hurtigruten trip up the coast of Norway and when we saw, in September 2019, that there would be an expedition voyage from Dover in 2021, we decided this would be perfect. Of course, Covid intervened, and we thought it wouldn't happen, but it did! It met all our expectations. We had a superior cabin, comfortable with a porthole with an uninterrupted ...
A long awaited return visit to the Fjords previously visited in 1959. This trip was well worth the waite! All services were great quality & full of interest even when at sea. Every possible precaution was taken to minimise disease spreading & passenger safety was of prime importance. The Itinerary provided much of interest either as visits or lectures if at sea.
A very well run ship, with a ...
Having already done the coastal voyage I wanted to do something a bit different and this trip from Dover fitted the bill. I loved the ship, cabin was ideal, the exhibition crew put on interesting events every day and streamed the events to the cabin. Excellent Covid protocols and then 3 nights of stunning aurora. Great food so highly recommended. Really good process for boarding in Dover and it ...
