Luminous fjord landscapes, idyllic archipelagos, charming towns – Norway’s coastline stretches for around 2,500 km (1,553 mi.) and offers breathtaking natural experiences. Accompany the EUROPA all the way up to the dream destination of North Cape.
Your midsummer fairy tale begins in HAMBURG. After a day at sea, you will experience a spectacular flight* over the EIDFJORD, followed by a stroll through ALESUND, Norway’s capital of art nouveau, the next day. Your cruise continues to the northern tip of Europe, where, at this time of year, the days never end at the NORTH CAPE* and the peaks around TROMSO are sometimes still covered in snow. Enjoy special natural spectacles when you explore the rugged coasts of the Lofoten Islands by RIB boat in LEKNES*, your gaze wanders over the shimmering lake at the foot of the SVARTISEN glacier and you immerse yourself in the magic of the Lysefjord* by boat at STAVANGER. Enjoy how idyllic Norwegian cities can be in ARENDAL and gain further impressions of the country on a bicycle tour* through the capital: OSLO is full of surprises. With one last day at sea, you will leave the fjords behind you and disembark in TRAVEMUNDE.
* The shore activities are not included in the cruise price and are in the planning stage. Subject to change.
