Why choose our Norwegian Fjords Cruises?
Smaller ships mean we sail into fjords and waterways that larger vessels cannot reach, offering a more intimate and immersive experience.
Our itineraries are crafted with care, using decades of Norwegian navigation experience to bring you the most spectacular views at the most meaningful moments of the day.
You’ll travel in comfort, enjoy relaxed elegance on board, and benefit from the welcoming service for which we're known for - a tone as dependable as the fjords themselves.
With several convenient UK departure ports and a friendly, personal booking experience, planning your Norwegian fjords cruise is straightforward and stress-free.
Life on Board Our Norwegian Fjords Cruises
From your balcony, sun-deck or panoramic lounge you may wake to the silent giant walls of the fjords gently passing by. On shore, you’ll find charming towns, hushed forests, icy glacial walls and cascading waterfalls. Back on board, you’ll enjoy our tailored service, enjoyable entertainment and the warmth of crew members who know the region and love to share it.
Best Time to Cruise the Norwegian Fjords
Best times to go: Late spring (May–June) and summer (July–August) offer long daylight hours and comfortable temperatures.
What to pack: Layers, waterproof outerwear and sturdy walking shoes. Even in summer, weather can change quickly in the fjords.

What’s special about Fred. Olsen: Because our ships are smaller and itineraries more thoughtful, you’ll experience the Norwegian fjords in a calmer, more personal way, without the bustle of big-ship cruising.
