What to Expect
Look forward to discovering amazing destinations and getting up close and personal with nature. With Hurtigruten you can immerse yourself in the local life, enjoying more than 200 activities and taking in the stunning panoramic views of Norway. Meanwhile, on-board, you can indulge in gourmet on-board dining, live extraordinary experiences, reduce your environmental impact and broaden your horizons.
Aboard a Holland America Line you can get involved with plenty of fun activities, from culinary experiences and trying your luck at the casino to cultural performances and interactive workshops. To enrich your journey further you can take part in Hurtigruten’s excursion programmes, led by qualified guides and experts in the locations you’ll be visiting on your itinerary. Take a walk through the beautiful Art Deco town of Alesund, head off for a snowmobile ride in Lapland, or meet huskies and go dog-sledding across stark, snowy landscapes. You could see puffins, skuas and cormorants on a birdwatching safari around Gjesvaerstappan; take a quad bike ride or even discover the Vikings on a historical tour in their homeland.
Dining on Hurtigruten ships is created to complement the landscapes you’ll enjoy during your voyage – fresh, distinctive and full of variety. Bringing in fresh produce from each port of call, the meals you can expect in the main dining room will reflect the cultures that your ship calls upon – giving you a true cultural experience during your voyage. Lunch and dinner on board is served with a selection of wines, spirits and soft drinks, making your on-board dining a great opportunity to meet new people during your cruise.
Whilst children are welcome on Hurtigruten cruises, child-friendly facilities and activities are quite minimal since these ships are tailored more towards adult travellers with a love of exploration. Hurtigruten cruise lines are all about giving travellers the opportunity to see awe-inspiring scenery, and they give guests plenty of peaceful public spaces to enjoy them.
Hurtigruten ships are designed to sail in polar waters, taking you to destinations that some other cruise lines can’t visit. You could get up close with penguins, polar bears, sea birds and gigantic icebergs, and all against the dramatic frozen backdrop of rugged, mountainous coast. A team of experts will accompany you on your voyage, including biologists, geologists and historians – giving insightful talks to open up your understanding of this unique part of the world.
Settle into your signature Mariner’s Dream bed, featured in each stateroom on-board your Holland America Line ship. Many staterooms are ocean-facing, with teak-lined verandahs for alfresco dining or sunbathing in private. Ships in the Holland America Line fleet feature staterooms including Inside, Ocean View, Verandah and a selection of Suites. In each stateroom, guests can enjoy 24-hour room service, daily housekeeping, bathrobes, complimentary fresh fruit and ice service, plus much more.
