Naturally, a trip with Hurtigruten is different than those of the large/mega cruise ships that go around the Caribbean and other areas, so review categories should not be confused. There is little "entertainment," for instance, ...

We chose to do this trip with Vantagetravel.com because the overall value was greater than booking the cruise, hotels, & excursions separately. We found that all interactions with the ship's crew were pleasant and that our needs were ...

The fjords of Norway, the history of the Vikings at sea, the historic ports and the history of the Hurtigruten, dating back to 1893 as a daily connection for folks - all these drew my interest. But it was the opportunity to join with ...

I arrived a day earlier than the 'Richard With' departed from Bergen. The cruise was even more beautiful and much better than I had hoped. The scenery was breathtaking. I was lucky enough to be upgraded from an inside to an outside ...

If you expect a typical cruise ship then forget it. No red carpet, no cinemas no swimming pool. BUT you get an experience of a lifetime. You are the 1910's explorer in a ship, we went on the MS Richard With, which has the high Savoy Hotel ...

We knew that this two day trip from Tromso to Kirkenes was all about the location and the chance of seeing the Northern Lights, so we were thrilled when we had great viewing the first night on the ship. The captain announced when the ...

My wife and I booked this cruise with Readers Offers from the daily newspapers. We flew to Bergen to meet the ship but were told, along with all the other passengers, that the ship was delayed because of bad weather. We were accommodated ...

Advertised as a cruise ship going up to the very North of Norway. It was not a cruise ship as understood by the name but a merchant /car ferry with passengers..The trip started badly with the ship delayed and we were put up in a local 2 ...

My wife reluctantly agreed to this cruise. She worries about sea sickness and hates being cold! No problem. Apart from one night which was slightly rough for about 3 hours, the rest of the trip was virtually like a mill pond. Apart from ...

My wife and I have just returned from our third cruise with Hurtigruten. This has been our third cruise on a different ship. All three trips have been great experiences and I can honestly say I cant find anything to criticise.
We found ...

My family including our 17 year old son sailed from Kirkenes to Bergen in August. The ship was the size we expected - a smaller passenger ship, billed a "coastal steamer". Our son had his own cabin which gave all of us plenty of ...

This was our first cruise and I was aware that some stops would be short, however if time is lost through bad weather or technical problems then stops are curtailed and sometimes you are not allowed to get off the boat at all. Apparently ...

Our trip from the U.S. middlewest started off abysmally with two flight cancellations, by American and Scandinavian airlines. It took two days for us to finally reach Bergen, and consequently we missed the Norway in a Nutshell tour ...

We had just returned from a cruise on P & O's Oriana in search of the Northern Lights. This trip had been less than successful not least because when we did see the lights for a brief 15 minutes in Alta, I could not capture the event ...

We travelled on Richard With and had a wonderful time Hunting the Light. We had five nights of sightings and have some super photographs that we are well satisfied with.
The passage to Kirkenes and back is not a cruise - it is a journey ...

We had a fantastic trip and loved every moment. Sure it's not an ocean cruise ship, more like a ferry in terms of accommodation, but we knew this before we left and it was all part of the adventure. We knew the cruise was called "Hunting ...

We've just returned from a Christmas and New year cruise - 21st Dec 2013 to 2nd Jan 2014. To say that joining the ship was a shambles would be an understatement.
We arrived at Bergen airport - no signs to where to pick up the bus! ...

Last December we went with Hurtigruten on a Norwegian cruise to see the Northern Lights. We had recently been to Norway with Saga, so it was interesting to make comparisons.
We booked directly with Hurtigruten in the UK, whereas other ...

There are some good points and bad points about this cruise.
