Norwegian Coastal Voyage general information
Unlike any other Norway cruises the Norwegian Coastal Voyage ships are combined cruise
ships, working ships and public transport for the locals. During the cruise the
ships sail into fjords, through narrow passages and make ports of call in tiny
fishing villages and coastal cities all the way along the extensive coast line. Enjoy the Midnight sun and the bright nights during a summer cruise or
the spectacular Northern Lights during an exotic winter cruise, or enjoy a
traditional Norwegian Christmas onboard! Choose between an extensive program of
interesting and adventurous
optional shore excursions
