The original Norwegian cruise
Heralded as the ‘World’s Most Beautiful Voyage’, Hurtigruten’s 12-day Coastal Express immerses travellers in Norway’s everyday charm.
Sailing round-trip from the colourful southern city of Bergen, this time-honoured journey traces rugged coastlines before crossing the Arctic Circle to the snow-covered town of Kirkenes.
Here, the country’s natural drama is on full display. Guests can take in fjords dotted with fishing villages and glaciers, sprawling farmland and Arctic cities illuminated by the Northern Lights in winter and the Midnight Sun in summer.
The Coastal Express stops in 34 enchanting ports, following a route that Hurtigruten has operated for more than 130 years.
With select Original Voyages priced from only $1,770 per person and sailing until March 31, 2028 there has never been a better time to book with Hurtigruten.
