Cruise Segment of Itinerary
Tuesday - Jan 18, 2028
Day 1
Tromso, Norway
Welcome aboard as we get ready for our voyage from Tromso to Copenhagen. Before embarkation tomorrow, there's plenty of time to explore this northern capital. Stroll among colorful wooden houses, visit the striking Arctic Cathedral or the fascinating Polar Museum, and soak up the warm, adventurous atmosphere. After check-in, it's time to settle into your cabin and get to know the ship - your comfortable home for the days ahead. As evening falls, perhaps enjoy dinner in one of the onboard restaurants while the lights of Tromso shimmer across the harbor. Or, as the ship remains in port overnight, you could opt instead to sample the city's vibrant dining scene. The choice is yours. ... Read More

Day 2
Tromso, Norway
After breakfast, spend a leisurely morning exploring Tromso. You might choose to visit Polaria, an aquarium and educational center, to learn about Arctic wildlife, or simply enjoy a stroll across the bridge for sweeping views of the mountains and sea. This would be a great time to look at our range of winter excursions, such as a snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and dog sledding, and book them with the Expedition Team. By afternoon, it's time to gather on deck as the ship prepares to sail. The ropes are cast off and we begin our voyage south, leaving behind the snow-clad peaks that frame Tromso's harbor. Watch as the city fades into the distance and the open water beckons. Ahead lies the storied Norwegian coast, a living landscape of mountains, fjords, and fishing towns that connects the Arctic with the world beyond. ... Read More
Thursday - Jan 20, 2028
Day 3
Honningsvag, Norway
Today, we arrive in Honningsvag, gateway to the legendary North Cape - a landmark long regarded as the northernmost point of mainland Europe. The town itself is small and welcoming, perched among rugged hills and icy bays where fishing boats come and go with the tide. From here, an optional excursion takes you across the windswept plateau of Mageroya Island to the North Cape itself. Standing by the nearly 1,000-foot-high (300-meter-high) cliffs that fall sharply into the Arctic Ocean, you'll feel the vast scale of the landscape-sea, sky, and tundra stretching endlessly around you. Back in Honningsvag, take time to explore the town's colorful harbor and wooden houses painted in bright Arctic hues. Visit the North Cape Museum to learn about the history of life in the far north, or simply enjoy a coffee while watching fishing vessels come and go. Here, in one of the world's northernmost towns, you'll find a remarkable blend of endurance, hospitality, and quiet beauty. ... Read More
Friday - Jan 21, 2028
Day 4
Alta, Norway
Today, we arrive in Alta, a town framed by forested hills, frozen rivers, and an immense Arctic sky. Known as the City of the Northern Lights, Alta has long drawn explorers, scientists, and travelers fascinated by the mysteries of the far north. Yet its history reaches much further back; this was once a gathering place for early northern peoples, and the UNESCO World Heritage-listed rock carvings along the riverbanks still tell their stories with scenes of hunting, reindeer herding, and life on the water carved into the stone thousands of years ago. Modern Alta balances that heritage with warmth and innovation. You might visit the striking Northern Lights Cathedral, whose spiral form mirrors the aurora, or explore the Alta Museum to learn about the region's ancient cultures and Arctic environment. Those seeking something truly special can opt to stay overnight in the Igloo Hotel, rebuilt each year from snow and ice. Alternatively, spend your time wandering the town's cafes, visiting local craft shops, or simply admiring the calm beauty of the frozen river valley. ... Read More
Saturday - Jan 22, 2028
Day 5
Alta, Norway
Aften an overnight in Alta - either onboard or in the Igloo Hotel - you have another chance to experience Alta's beautiful landscapes, with several optional excursions on offer. Glide behind a team of huskies through pine forests, try snowshoeing across frozen terrain, or join a guided trip inland toward the tundra of Finnmark. For a gentler pace, visit the Alta Museum or enjoy a walk along the riverbank. By evening, the ship turns south once more, leaving the quiet harbor of Alta behind. From deck, you can watch the lights of the town fade as we sail into open water. Inside, it's time to unwind - perhaps enjoy dinner or talk over the day's experiences with fellow guests. The course now follows Norway's coast toward the fjords and islands further south, with the calm rhythm of the ship marking the steady pace of travel through the Arctic night. ... Read More
Sunday - Jan 23, 2028
Day 6
Stokmarknes, Norway
Raftsund, Norway
Svolvaer, Norway
We begin the day in Stokmarknes, birthplace of Hurtigruten and home to the fascinating Hurtigruten Museum - a heartfelt tribute to the generations who have lived and worked along this coast sailing the same route founded in 1893 and still followed today. From here, we continue through the narrow Raftsundet channel, one of Norway's most dramatic and powerful stretches of water. Cliffs rise almost vertically from the sea, waterfalls trace silver lines down the rock, and every turn reveals another vista - new peaks, hidden coves, and the play of light that defines the north. Later, we arrive in Svolvaer, the lively heart of the Lofoten Islands. Fishing boats line the quays beneath sharp mountain peaks, galleries display works inspired by Arctic light, and cafes offer warmth and conversation. You might explore the town's waterfront, visit nearby Henningsvaer, or simply take in the view of red and yellow cabins against the dark slopes. ... Read More
Monday - Jan 24, 2028
Day 7
Coastal Navigation, United States
Today, we sail along Norway's storied inner coastal route, a network of narrow channels and protected sounds that has guided mariners for more than a thousand years. These waters are sheltered from the open sea, winding between islands and headlands where small fishing villages and family farms still cling to the shore. Solitary lighthouses mark the entrances to fjords, and on clear days you may spot distant peaks still capped with snow. From the deck, you can follow the slow rhythm of the coastline as the ship moves steadily south. Every turn reveals a new view; a waterfall tumbling down from the high mountains, a cluster of boathouses reflected in calm water, or a seabird gliding close to the waves. Inside, you might attend a short talk from the Expedition Team or simply enjoy the scenery from the lounge. This is a day for unhurried travel and quiet appreciation, a chance to experience the beauty and continuity of Norway's living coast. ... Read More
Rebuilt after a devastating fire in 1904, Alesund emerged as Norway's Art Nouveau masterpiece - a city of graceful spires, pastel facades, and curved towers that catch the light of the surrounding sea. Its distinctive architecture, inspired by European styles of the time, gives the town a sense of charm and refinement found nowhere else on the Norwegian coast. The natural setting is equally striking: Alesund stretches across a series of islands, with the jagged Sunnmore Alps rising in the distance. Spend the day exploring the town's canals and narrow streets lined with cafes and boutiques or visit the Jugendstilsenteret Museum to learn how Alesund's architecture was born from resilience and renewal. For a wider view, climb the 418 steps to the top of Mount Aksla for a panorama of the town, fjords, and mountains beyond. Alesund's harmony of design, history, and landscape makes it one of the true gems of the Norwegian coast. ... Read More
Encircled by seven mountains and facing the open sea, Bergen is Norway's maritime heart: lively, historic, and steeped in seafaring tradition. Once a key Hanseatic trading port, the city still carries echoes of its past in the colorful wooden facades of Bryggen Wharf, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Strolling through its narrow passages you can almost sense the bustle of merchants and sailors who once filled these docks with stories from across the world. Down by the harbor, the fish market offers a taste of local life with stalls piled high with freshly caught seafood and regional specialties. For a wider view, take the funicular up Mount Floyen, where the city and its islands unfold beneath you in a sweep of water and rooftops. Bergen is a place where history and everyday life meet easily: cobbled lanes, cozy cafes, and the sound of gulls overhead. Take your time and get to know this charming city on your own terms; this is, after all, our last stop in Norway before we head to Denmark. ... Read More

Day 10
Cruising the North Sea
As we leave Norway's rugged coastline astern, the open waters of the North Sea stretch ahead toward Denmark. The sense of distance grows with every passing hour, offering time to reflect on the fjords, mountains, and coastal towns that have shaped your journey. This is a day for slowing down, to watch the horizon, feel the steady movement of the ship, and let the memories of the voyage settle in. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast or join one final talk with your Expedition Team. From the deck, seabirds glide effortlessly on the wind as we pass through the Skagerrak and Kattegat straits, waters that have long linked Norway, Sweden, and Denmark through trade and travel. As daylight fades, perhaps raise a glass to the journey behind you, a passage across cultures, coastlines, and the ever-changing moods of the northern seas. ... Read More
In the early morning light, the spires of Copenhagen rise from the sea as we approach the final destination of our journey from the Arctic. As we glide into harbor, you can probably already sense the different vibe that Denmark offers when compared to its northern neighbor. After you disembark, perhaps take a stroll beside the harbor canal of Nyhavn or visit a nearby cafe for a traditional smorrebrod (Danish open sandwich) lunch. There's so much to see and do in 'wonderful' Copenhagen that it really is worth spending some extra time here, if possible. Sadly, however, your cruise on the Arctic Line has come to an end. Your voyage from the Arctic to the south of Scandinavia has carried you through history, beauty, and the ever-changing moods of the northern seas. ... Read More
