Packed with attractions

Hurtigruten’s Classic Voyage North sets sail from Bergen harbour in the evening. Destination: the Arctic. As we sail along this idyllic stretch of coast, rich experiences await. We call on the Art Nouveau city of Ålesund, and continue north to the medieval city of Trondheim, where the imposing gothic-style Nidaros Cathedral is the highlight for many. In the summer, we take a detour into one of the world’s most beautiful fjords, Geirangerfjord. As we journey further up the coast, experience the thrill of crossing the polar circle, and visit the Arctic capital of Tromsø. We then sail to the town of Kirkenes on the Russian border, which lies as far east as St Petersburg.
