Great video - I agree that Norway is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Amsterdam and Iceland from this cruise itinerary were nice, but Norway is a must-do for me on a shore trip.
I'll be doing this cruise starting in Iceland and finishing in London at the end of the month. Did y'all find you needed any kind of heavy duty hiking trails or did you do ok in standard tennis/ walking shoes?
For what we did we were fine with tennis shoes. However, we know that there are some excursions that are actually hiking or wilderness excursions, so if you want to do any of those make sure you dress accordingly! Have a great time on your cruise!!
@@theseasonedexpats Also, did you have any need to exchange currency for the Iceland and Norway parts? I'm not as worried about mainland Europe and London. Thanks so much!
No this is not a tender port. They actually have a movable pier that they use for the cruise ships. It was about a 5-10 minute walk from the ship over to the bus!
You might want to take an anti-sickness medication beforehand, but we felt fine during this ride and we were in the back of the bus (as you could see!). We should say that we have also gotten carsick on bus rides like this before, but for this one we were totally fine. The roads are a bit curvy, but the bus does move rather slowly to get up and down the mountains since there is so much traffic.

I took this trip earlier this month. You captured the essence of it. Thank you.

@@fanofMcGonagall Nope, we had no need! Very few places actually took cash in those countries, so credit cards are the way to go!
