  1. Embark
    Copenhagen

  3. 3
    Geiranger

    Geiranger sits at the dead end of the Geirangerfjord, a UNESCO-listed arm of water hemmed by cliffs with waterfalls falling straight off the rim. Port guide →

    Ålesund

    Ålesund sits on a cluster of islands on Norway's west coast, rebuilt almost entirely in Art Nouveau after a 1904 fire leveled the town, leaving over 400 turreted, spired buildings in a tight, walkable center. Port guide →

  9. Disembark
    Bergen

    Bergen is Norway's gateway to the western fjords, a compact harbor city wrapped around the wooden Hanseatic trading wharf of Bryggen and ringed by seven mountains. Port guide →
