Remarkable Fjord Lansdscapes

This Borealis cruise has been crafted to showcase the dramatic and rugged beauty of Norway’s fjordland in the summertime, in just five days. Do join us out on deck as we sail along the calm waters of Hardangerfjord, surrounded by towering mountains, powerful waterfalls and picturesque villages. You will also have the chance to see apple orchards which thrive in the mild climate of the fjords.

Kayaking in the Norwegian fjords

The concept of outdoor living

Spending time outdoors, regardless of the weather, and having a strong connection to nature is central to the Norwegian custom of friluftsliv. Join us on a tour from Bergen and experience hiking through verdant forests into valleys and up mountainsides, hearing tales of rural life that provide an incredibly authentic Norwegian experience of outdoor living, and are beautifully in keeping with Friluftsliv. You can also take the opportunity to go kayaking on Hardangerfjord, where you'll glide through serene waters, flanked by steep mountains on each side; or try your hand at fishing from the banks of the fjord. When on Borealis, be sure to try our very own brand of Aquavit, produced on board.
