Enjoy the early morning in the breathtaking Nordfjord, followed by a delicious breakfast. We then sail past West Cape for our approach to Alesund. Art Nouveau city: Alesund is renowned for its beautiful Art Nouveau architecture and famed Atlanterhavsparken aquarium. Our tour to the aquarium includes a visit to see resident penguins. Into the fjords: From June to August, we set our course for the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage-listed Geirangerfjord, passing sheer, half-mile-high cliffs and dramatic waterfalls. The fjord's pristine natural landscape of steep rock walls, lush green meadows, lonely mountain farms, and tiny villages is unforgettable. Note: Geirangerfjord is replaced by Hjorundfjord for the following sailings: 2025: June 1, 12, 23; July 4, 15, 16; August 6, 17, 28. In spring, from April to May, and in autumn, from September to October, your ship will sail to Hjorundfjord, hidden away in the Sunnmore Alps. There'll also be a call at the scenic village of Urke to gaze at the view of thousand-year-old farms, the fjord, and the lush mountainsides. Mountains and roses: Molde is known as the 'City of Roses' because of its lovely municipal gardens.
