5 Night Cruise sailing from Kirkenes to Bergen onboard Lofoten.

Join the southbound voyage from Kirkenes and spend six days journeying past the dramatic Arctic landscape down to Bergen, the Gateway to the Fjords.

Excursions and sightseeing
Part of what makes the Norwegian Coastal Voyage such an exceptional experience is the many opportunities to venture ashore to learn about the area's nature, history, culture and people.

Itinerary
Have breakfast on the North Cape in the summer, visit Tromsr, the capital of the Arctic and sail through the beautiful Lofoten and Vesterľlen islands where the cliffs are diving dramatically into the ocean and the locals are greeting us as we sail by.

Continue along the coast of Helgeland, frequently called the worlds most beautiful coastline, visit Trondheim, Norway's first capital and arrive in Bergen - the gateway to the fjords.

Day 1 Kirkenes, the voyage south begins

Ports visited today: Kirkenes, Vardr, Bľtsfjord, Berlevľg.

Summer in Kirkenes is superb with 86°F degree temperatures at its hottest. The town is known as the capital of the Barents Region and the gateway to the east, with people here speaking Norwegian, Sami, Finnish and Russian. As we turn south, the northbound ports previously visited by night are now seen by day.

Day 2 Hammerfest and Tromsr

Ports visited today: Mehamn, Kjrllefjord, Honningsvľg, Havrysund, Hammerfest, Rksfjord, Skjervry, Tromsr.

Start the day with a summer breakfast at the North Cape Hall (optional excursion), which is firmly perched on the massive cliff marking the northernmost tip of mainland Europe. From here we make a stop in Hammerfest before our next major port of call, Tromsr, where you can take part in a very special musical experience, the Arctic Cathedral Midnight Concert.

Day 3 Vesterľlen and Lofoten Islands

Ports visited today: Tromsr, Finnsnes, Harstad, Risryhamn, Sortland, Stokmarknes, Svolvær, Stamsund.

Passing through the Lofoten Islands the ship negotiates a stunning network of inlets and isles, before moving on to what is the highlight of the voyage for many, a possible detour into the spectacular and dramatic Trollfjord. Join us on a fantastic safari by RIB- boat through the Lofoten archipelago under the Midnight Sun!

Day 4 Arctic Circle, Seven Sisters

Ports visited today: Bodr, Rrnes, Nesna, Sandnessjren, Brrnnrysund, Rrrvik.

As we sail past the Helgeland coast you can enjoy views of the hundreds of islets, fertile farmland and lush meadows. Today will also be our last one north of the Arctic Circle. The Vega Archipelago, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is close to our call in Sandnessjren.

Day 5 Trondheim and Kristiansund

Ports visited today: Trondheim, Kristiansund, Molde, Ĺlesund.

We arrive in Trondheim in the early morning. Nidaros Cathedral, in which three Queens and seven Kings have been crowned, is Scandinavia's largest medieval building and worth a visit. The town of Kristiansund, located on the scenic Atlantic Road, holds the rather obscure title of Norway's 'cured cod capital' owing to the nature of its main export.

Day 6 Bergen, disembarkation

Ports visited today: Ĺlesund, Torvik, Mľlry, Florr, Bergen.

Our arrival in Bergen sees the end of this magnificent summer journey.
