We wanted to see the Norwegian Coastline during the winter season and also the Northern lights.. This cruise didn't disappoint us. We took the Richard With from Bergen to Kirkenes. It was a stunning trip Mountains covered in ice, villages dotted along the coastline half submerged in ice. Constant snow falling. It was so magical. We had a Mini suite with a full window. we could lie in bed ...

Nice boat and food but nothing to do, expensive extras and very short stops

Wife wanted to see obscure bits of Norway but not for 20 minutes in the dark when everything closed. Food very good but very small portions - captive audience. Expensive. Default cabin was the very worst - why? Soft drinks and wifi were chargeable extras. Lots of Norway in very small chunks - We started in Kirkenes and went to Trondheim in November 2022. Windows from cabin could ...

The hole Trip was Very good. The food wars delicious, the crew was friendly and helps where ever they can. And the expedition team was friendly and helpful and gave you a lot of hints if you want to go out in one harbor. Liked the cleaning service as well and I will do the same route again at the end of summer to see more of the beautiful landscape, more of the beautiful cities, and at least to ...

We chose this cruise because the company have been doing this itinerary for many years. We had gone with them 2 years ago through the NW Passage on the Roald Amundsen ship and were very disappointed with the ship and the staff. We were offered a discount on our next cruise, and chose an itinerary that the company had done many times. This was a good choice. The cruise was great. It was ...

Done this trip before with the same ship, which satisfied. Corona time has special challenges, and was answered. Food was served with grace and deserved a Michelin star or two. The view of the Norwegian coastline is always and once in a lifetime experience, even for one seen it several times before. And no matter the weather you get. Late in the year - from October - you got good chances for the ...

Not a good choice for your first cruise

Trip was recommended by a travel agent, it was also chance to see the Northern Lights. We didn't want a big cruise ship for our first cruise, we also wanted a trip to the Arctic Circle we this trip provided. The trip to the main port in the Arctic cancelled due to the weather which was very disappointing. The lights made a very brief appearance which also added to the frustration, I accept we were ...

I chose this cruise to time the Arctic Circle crossing with my birthday and I wanted to see the Northern Lights. I chose Hurtigruten after online research and would definitely travel with Hurtigruten again. The ship was incredibly comfortable and clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful and all spoke excellent English. The Expedition team were knowledgeable and very experienced in ...

This cruise and everything about our time in Norway was above and beyond all our expectations We had early unseasonal cold weather with snow which was wonderful for us as we come from a hot & sunny climate & never see snow and it turned everything into a fairyland. We chose Hurtigruten as we wanted to see as much of Norwegian life as possible and being on a "Ferry' stopping a little ports ...

We arrived 2 days before the departure at Bergen to visit ourself the city from Paris (2 days are too long for visiting Bergen).

And sometimes we ate french pasteries on breakfast. All cruise's team was at our service for ...

We had always wanted to do the Norwegian coast and my parents took the journey probably 40 years ago and loved it. Our Swedish friends, who we travel with, suggested we take this trip and we jumped at the chance. We understood this is not a cruise but a trip on a supply ship. We had taken the same type of trip before on the St. Lawrence so we fully understood the difference between cruise and ...
