    What a captivating moment of the Northbound portion of our recent voyage. Your account of the experiences, the scenery, the shipboard elegance and ease and OMG the food will remain part of our collection of memories. Hope that one day you'll experience the southbound voyage and document that for us as well! Safe travels. 😍

    This video was so well presented!!! Thank you for taking us with you. Our trip was in May, so we didn't see the Northern lights, but did see the Midnight Sun. 🌍🤓

    Did a trip from dover to Svalbard two years ago on the Maud. It was brilliant. Huge fan of Hurtigruten. Cant wait for the next trip.

    In 2017 I did a tour of Scandinavia. I so enjoyed that trip. This video was so well presented. Thank you for taking us with you. Our trip was in May, so we didn't see the Northern lights, but did see the midnight sun.

    Thank you for this great video! I travelled the Svalbard line just before you did. Fantastic that you saw the Northern Lights! We skipped Traena and Reine because of the strong winds. I was glad to be able to see your footage of those ports.

      Oh so sorry to hear that! Missed ports are pretty common in Norway though. All part of the adventure 😊 Thanks for watching 🙌

    What a captivating memento of the northbound portion of our recent voyage. Your account of the experiences, the scenery, the shipboard elegance and ease *and* OMG the food will remain part of our collection of memories. Hope that one day you'll experience the southbound voyage and document that for us as well! Safe travels.

    Thank you for sharing, we loved the Hurtigruten BKB coastal journey last year and would love to do the Svalbard trip

    How costly is cruise excursion to different ports. Do cheaper excursions are available at the port ❤ Return journey costs less, same route, or alternate? Liked the way you narrated your journey. Thanks, have a great time.❤

      The southbound leg calls at different ports. You can see the prices for the cruise (northbound/southbound/entire) here: www.lifeinnorway.net/go/hurtigrutensignature

    When is the best to travel around Norway to avoid the snowstorm? I’m interested in cruising with Havila 😊

    • @lifeinnorway1
      @lifeinnorway1  21 день тому

      Cruising the coastline any time that isn’t the summer risks bad weather and rough seas. And you might even get it in summer too. Or you might get glorious weather. It’s part of the deal ;)

    Awesome video! May I asked how much did it cost you? Im a solo traveler ty in advance

    • @lifeinnorway1
      @lifeinnorway1  Місяць тому

      The cost varies a lot depending on which departure you choose and which cabin you choose. You may find solo deals but they seem to be less common on the signature voyages than the coastal voyage. You can see the prices for 2025 and 2026 here: www.lifeinnorway.net/go/hurtigrutensignature

    Thanks. To see snow in Svalbard, when would you suggest we do this cruise?

    • @lifeinnorway1
      @lifeinnorway1  2 місяці тому +1

      Perhaps the first departure of the season. But if you want to guarantee a lot of snow you should travel independently in the winter. Late Feb / early March when the sun is returning is a great time to visit
