Koningsdam Review
Rating by category
Additional details
We chose this cruise to experience a little of Norway and her peoples, also an opportunity to cruise with my parents.
We have been on the Rotterdam and Oosterdam before with HAL. Koningsdam is very stylish, but the red, silver & gold decor can seem a bit garish. It must be one of their bigger ships, but it's not better, overall. In fact, we felt quite crowded at times.

Cabin Review
Verandah Stateroom
Pretty nice. Plenty of storage, plenty of room. Have never liked the Euro-style duvet, too hot & sweaty. Nice head, balcony. In-room entertainment quite good.
Port Reviews
Stavanger
Lovely city, with a nice flea market near the cruise dock. Maritime museum okay. Café Sting at the top of the tower hill was pretty good, but expensive. Free wifi!
Eidfjord
Other than being scenic, there's not much going on here. Regret not having an international driver's permit, would have loved to try the little Renault e-car. Try a bike rental here.
Alesund
Nice town, compact. Free wifi at virtually every café.
Geiranger

Bergen
Lovely city, home of Hanseatic Museum; sadly, few people know about the Hanseatic League. Take the funicular up to the top of the mountain downtown if it's nice. You can also walk up and down if you're up to it.
