Hurtigruten Cruise Service
Hurtigruten or the Norwegian Coastal Voyage is well-known in the heart of Norway and by people living there. It transports mail, passengers and supplies to more than 30 ports that are found along the Norwegian Coastline. Most of these destinations have never been accessed by commercial cruise liners.

The Hurtigruten usually makes daily departures from Bergen, traversing through Arctic Circle towards the north and even beyond through the majestic views of the Norwegian coast. Travelling in and out of these inlets will offer you some of the most incredible coastline sights in the world. You will feel like you are nearly in sight of land and get to discover what really makes this voyage a one-of-a-kind.

Most of the ports offer tranquil settings located on small islands where people living there depend on the Hurtigruten ships for their entire existence. These often bring them food and any important supplies to the communities. They also reunite friends and families who have stayed away from each other for long periods.

Every Hurtigruten cruise ship has a unique style and character. This is why every journey will be different, according to the changing climate, seasons, flora and fauna, friendly local people and the very kind and friendly crew who speak English. All this makes a Hurtigruten voyage a completely different experience.

Adventurous and like-minded people from every corner of the world travel there to enjoy the majestic views and serene atmosphere on board. Many find it exciting to sail in summer and enjoy the midnight sun. This is when the sun seems to flirt with the horizon before it finally curves skyward, filling the entire scenery in perpetual daylight.

Getting on this voyage should give you the feeling of pride for becoming a part of a tradition that has been practised for three centuries. This commitment to such a great tradition has made Hurtigurten an important part of Norwegian life.

Below are some of the places their cruise spans.

Norway

This Hurtigruten’s Norwegian Cruise that goes along the beautiful coasts and fjords of Norway is considered as one of the most splendid voyages all over the world. With each day of this voyage, you will be able to create beautiful memories from the surrounding coastline’s natural beauty and the ever-evolving personality. You will also get a new revelation around each headland.

Spitsbergen

This mysterious, remote and extreme island is the icing of Arctic Norway. It is located in the southern part of the ever-frozen Arctic Ocean. The land is made up of wind, ice and sea. You will enjoy the views of both a biological hotspot and untouched wilderness. To top all that is the common predator that reigns this delicate food web; the polar bear.

Greenland

This is a land on its own and full of contrasts. Here you will enjoy the views of colossal icebergs that come in beautiful shapes. You will also have the pleasure of seeing the inland ice that is kilometres thick. However, the ice is not the only thing to enjoy here as Greenland is blessed with green mountains, hot springs, long fjords, fresh air, precipitous cliffs and magnificent flowers. Some of the animals to expect are polar bears, whales, reindeer, musk oxen and seals. This is a place worth including on your must-visit sites in your lifetime.
