Your journey
Late spring is the perfect time to visit Norway’s fjords, as the temperature is mild, the nights are long and the waterfalls are still powerful. Because Borealis is a smaller ship, it can take you on a scenic journey along Lysefjord and Maurangerfjord, which is famous for its amazing Fureberg Waterfall. On this memory-making cruise, you’ll also get to travel along Norway’s two longest fjords – Sognefjord and Hardangerfjord. Stopping in Haugesund (said to be the birthplace of Viking King Harald Fairhair), you’ll be able to visit the tumbling Langfoss Waterfall. There’ll also be the chance to leave the ship and visit Flåm, where you can take a boat tour along the UNESCO-listed Nærøyfjord or enjoy a wonderful train journey on the world-famous Flåm Railway.
