    You'll arrive in Bergen, Norway's second largest city, and head straight to your hotel for a two-night stay.

It's a nice blend of historic charm and modern conveniences, so after checking in you'll have time to get oriented.

Customer Reviews

  • Christine
    · August 22nd, 2025
    It really was an excellent cruise and I enjoyed it immensely. The only comment I would make is the act that all alcohol and excursions are obviously factored into the cost and personally I don't drink very much and am unable to participate in any excursion that involve walking a distance. I would like to think I would be able to go on another cruise but perhaps pay for any drinks and excursions.
