Cruises through Fjords
There are many wonders on our planet. And definitely, fjords are one of them.
If you are planning a European cruise, you should choose the ones which involve fjord sightseeings. In western Norway there are series of inlets which made up of both lush and snow-capped mountains, and glaciers. If you are on a small cruise ship, you will have more chance yo explore these wonders of nature. But you can still get a fantastic experience with a larger cruise ship.
Celebrity, Costa, Cunard, Fred Olsen, Hapag-Lloyd, Holland America, MSC, Orient, P&O, Princess, Royal Caribbean International, Seabourn, and Swan Hellenic all have European cruise itineraries that involve touring the fjords of Norway. Itineraries change all the time, and all of the cruise lines are adding new destinations and ports of call on a regular basis.
Your cruise through Norway’s fjords will probably center on the city of Bergen. The smaller ships begin their route to Kirkenes. Borgund Stave Church which is a beautiful medieval church can be a good address while you are still in Bergen. While the ship goes on her way through fjords, you will see incredible picturesque villages like Hellesyit and Geiranjer.
Most European cruises that include the fjords also include ports in Scandinavia and other northern European cities, such as Copenhagen, Oslo, Helsinki, London (Dover), Glasgow and St. Petersburg. You will find several cruises that begin and end in Amsterdam, traveling through cities in Scandinavia and the fjords along the way.
