Episode 99 Hurtigruten Cruises: How the Norway Cruise Started. Peek a 12-day Itinerary


Listen Later

Kathleen from Plenty of Sunshine Travel met with Kristin from Hurtigruten Cruises for this week's cruise chat.  Kristin explained to us how the "Coastal Express" route started with Hurtigruten along the coast of Norway. 

.   

This is a neat story of them starting as a mail route, then transitioning to cargo and passengers!  

Hurtigruten goes SO far up to Northern Norway! Many cruise lines stop at the arctic circle, but not Hurtigruten!    

They go to the following ports: Bergen, Norway Floro, Norway Maloy, Norway Torvik, Norway Alesund, Norway Molde, Norway Kristiansund, Norway Trondheim, Norway Rovik, Norway Bronnoysund, Norway Sandnessjoen, Norway Nesa, Norway Ornes, Norway Bodo, Norway Stamsund, Norway Svolaer, Norway Trollfjord, Norway Lofoten, Norway Stokmarknes, Norway Risovhamr, Norway Vesterälen, Norway Finnsnes, Norway Tromso, Norway Lyngenfjord, Norway Oksford, Norway Hammerfest, Norway Havoysund, Norway Honningsvà, Norwayg Kjollefford, Norway Mehamn, Norway Berlevag, Norway Varda. Norway Bätsfjord, Norway Vadso, Norway Kirkenes, Norway Geirangerfjord, Norway Hiorundfjord, Norway  

Some of the ports are quick stops to bring much-needed supplies to people, and some are actually long port stops.
