14 Night Cruise sailing from Southampton roundtrip aboard Adonia.

Adonia will be the smallest of the seven ships within our fleet. Designed to offer a wonderfully intimate cruising experience, she will radiate small ship charm. Stepping on board will be akin to returning home; there will be a comfortingly familiar feel to your surroundings with experienced P&O Cruises officers and crew on hand to look after your every need. Due to her small numbers - she carries just 710 passengers - Adonia will be incredibly sociable and within no time at all, you'll be surrounded by friendly, familiar faces. Exclusively for adults, Adonia will travel far and wide, exploring ports the larger ships of today are unable to visit.

With wood-style panelling, a grand staircase and traditional artworks, her ambience and decor will be in keeping with the traditions of cruising. Yet being a 21st century ship, (she was built in 2001) there'll be modernity to her detailing, all of which will be beautifully crafted. Her Crow's Nest will offer far reaching views by day and live music by night, and Anderson's bar will feel reassuringly British. In her grand lounge, the dance floor will play host to an elegant waltz or cha-cha-cha and its stage will present a wide range of evening entertainment. There will be a card room with panoramic ocean views, ample sunbathing space and restaurants which range from six-course silver service to al fresco grill fare. And of course being smaller, everything is only just a short walk away.

Cruise Overview:
A trip to the 'top of the world' and the magical 'Midnight Sun' are just two of the memories you'll take away from this unforgettable 14-night cruise with Adonia

Your adventure starts in the small sleepy village of Eidfjord, gateway to some huge-scale attractions, including the largest high mountain plateau (Hardangervidda) and Norway's largest national park. Historic Trondheim is followed by a cruise through the picturesque Trondheimsfjord. Your next stop is Honningsvaag and leaving here, you'll experience a magical evening cruise past the imposing North Cape, witnessing the 'Midnight Sun'.

More memorable sights can be found by taking the cable car up Storsteinen in Tromsr before you literally find yourself at the 'top of the world' in Bodo, gateway to the Arctic. Geiranger has changed very little since welcoming its first cruise ship in 1869, remaining a small village resort surrounded by natural beauty and this will be your last stop before cruising back to Southampton.

About Trondheim
Enjoy the best of all possible worlds in Norways first-ever capital, which is still its third largest city and one of its most popular Fjordland cruise ports, Trondheim. Looking south along the picturesque Trondheim fjord, the most northerly in Norways west coast Fjordland region, are lush forests and valley but look north and you see the beginnings of the vast expanse of the Arctic Ocean.
But, whichever way you are heading, there is much to enjoy in Trondheim before you set sail. Visit Stiftsgarden, the King of Norways official residence, which also happens to be the oldest wooden building in northern Europe, while the Archbishops Palace is the oldest secular building in Scandinavia. Among the pick of several fascinating museums is one featuring the decorative arts with its collections of 16th century ceramics and Art Nouveau artefacts. For the best bars and restaurants, try the 18th century Bakklandet waterfront district.

About Honningsvaag
They call Honningsvaag the North Cape cruise port these days, as this busy fishing port town on Mageroya Island is the capital of Nordkapp, Norways most northerly municipality. Bounded by the Barents Sea, Nordkapp comprises Mageroya and the facing stretch of mainland, but the place everyone wants to visit is the North Cape Plateau about 20 miles from Honningsvaag.
On a clifftop more than 900 feet above the sea, this is Europes most northerly point and the final frontier before the Arctic Ocean. Many thousands of photographs have been taken of visitors beside the globe sculpture on the clifftop, usually lit by the Midnight Sun which shines here (clouds permitting) on 77 nights of the year. There is a fascinating North Cape Heritage museum in Honningsvaag and other tours outside the town include trips to a nature and bird reserve in nearby Gjesvaertappan.

About Tromso
It is easy to make the most of a day in Norway's most northerly city and cruise port Tromsr because, in summer, the 'midnight sun' shines around the clock. The best way to see its full glory is to take a cable car 480 metres up to the top of Mount Storsteinen, which affords spectacular views out over the city to the surrounding mountains.
The launchpad for many Polar expeditions, Tromsr lies 400 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle and, if you are fascinated by the world of snow and ice, the city's Polaria Science Museum is the place to find out all about it.
Within its iceberg-shaped walls you can meet the local wildlife at a vast aquarium, experience an Arctic snowstorm or take a virtual trek through the frozen wilderness to encounter polar bears and see the mystical Northern Lights.
And, if the experience leaves you thirsty, you're in luck; Tromsr has more bars than anywhere else in Norway!

About Geiranger
It is just nine miles long but the snaking Geirangerfjord is the most photographed of all Norways fjords because of the sheer beauty of its setting.
As you cruise along to the ships anchorage off Geiranger cruise port, just marvel at the views as spectacular waterfalls with evocative names like Bridal Veil and The Seven Sisters cascade down from the steep rocky peaks that overlook the fjord from both sides.
Geiranger welcomed its first cruise ship (carrying a group of Quakers from Scotland) in 1869 and its appeal for visitors has hardly changed since then. It is still just a small village resort which simply makes the ideal base for walking, boating, or motoring tours into a surrounding area full of natural beauty and magnificent scenery with snow-capped mountains, verdant valleys, plunging waterfalls and age-old glaciers.
There are superb views from the Dalsnibban mountain plateau overlooking the fjord.
