Our Norwegian coastal cruise together, at least this time, will reach its end later today. During the previous night, we'll have called at Alesund and Torvik. On our approach to Maloy, you might catch a glimpse of the northbound Coastal Express if you're up early enough. You'll have a chance to glimpse Nordfjord, under the enormous Jostedal Glacier, mainland Europe's largest. The ship then docks at Floro in the morning where you can take in the harbor and marina. Leaving Floro, you'll spot Stabben Lighthouse, a favorite subject for photographers. There's also stunning views to enjoy as we cross the mouth of Sognefjord, the longest and widest fjord in the whole of Norway. As we reach our final port in the afternoon, the ship will navigate through the last islands and skerries of our Norway scenic route, and sail down Hjeltefjord to arrive into Bergen. But luckily your journey is not over yet. After disembarkation, you'll take a transfer bus to your hotel to check in. Spend the afternoon discovering the city known as the 'Gateway to the Fjords'. Founded in 1070 CE, Bergen retains much of its historical charm and character, making it a fascinating place to explore. Perhaps start by visiting the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Bryggen district, where colorful wharfs dating back to the 14th century stand as a testament to the city's rich trading history. Stroll through the cobblestone alleyways lined with quaint shops, art galleries, and cozy cafes. Enjoy a meal at a cafe or restaurant, sampling local delicacies such as fresh fish and traditional Norwegian dishes. For a bird's-eye view of the city, take a trip on the Floibanen funicular to the top of Mount Floyen. The panoramic views from the summit are truly captivating, offering a great perspective of Bergen and the surrounding fjords. Don't miss the famous fish market, where you can sample an array of fresh seafood and soak in the vibrant atmosphere of this bustling port city, with its blend of historical sites, natural beauty, and lively culture. ...
