What's this trip about?

    A cruise to Norway’s northern ports not only takes you to some of the country’s stunning island scenes, with breathtaking views of huge, angular mountains and quaint fishing villages in traditional red or green, but the skies which are populated by soaring sea eagles by day, are regularly filled by the Northern Lights by night. Take this opportunity to go in search of the Lights, whilst wrapped up warm on the deck of Fred. Olsen’s Boudicca, and fill your daylight hours exploring Norway’s stunning Arctic coastline and wonderful towns, with opportunities to ascend snow-covered peaks on a cable car or head into the wilderness on a husky adventure.

Itinerary

Day 1 Newcastle Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home, for your journey to Newcastle where our staff will greet you and assist with embarking Boudicca (3T+) in readiness for a late evening sailing. Days 2-3 At sea Day 4 Bodø, Norway Sailing into Bodø early this morning, you will find yourself amidst the craggy islands of Norway’s broken coastline, an area often overseen by majestic white-tailed sea eagles, gliding and diving for fish. Our first port of call, Bodø, offers your first opportunity to really discover Norway’s natural beauty, taking a stroll along the chalk-white beach with beautiful views of the many mountains that surround you. It also offers you the chance to visit one of the first churches in Norway to feature a detached steeple, Bodø cathedral, and experience the exceptional acoustics at an organ recital; or visit the town’s museums, which include Norsk Luftfartsmuseum, an excellent museum of historic military and civilian aircraft including an ill-fated U2 spy plane. You may also have the chance to take a tour of the city to learn of its 200-year story of Vikings and Luftwaffe bombing raids, or to view some of the 10,000-year old archaeological remains found a short journey away. Day 5 Tromsø Tromsø is an island city that contains the largest collection of wooden houses in Northern Norway; a wonderful sight of charming, colourful Norwegian architecture. It also holds Norway’s best known modern landmark - the unique Arctic Cathedral, distinctive in its triangular design and decorated with one of the largest glass mosaics in Europe. A number of museums and galleries showcase the city’s history and love for art and, in its Arctic aquarium, huge tanks of fish species, which inhabit the waters we’ve become acquainted with. You may also like to visit the Tromsø Wildlife Park, where beautiful huskies, at home in the soft snow of winter, seem eager to take you on a dogsledding adventure, or opt to traverse the flawless wilderness on a snowmobile. Alternatively, take a walk (or short bus journey) to the base of the Tromsø Cable Car to ascend to a mountain ledge on Storsteinen, 421m above sea level. The views over Tromsø and the many islands, fjords, mountains and sea are truly spectacular. Day 6 Narvik Narvik is a relatively new city, founded in 1903 despite traces of prehistoric inhabitants. Close to the town centre is the Ofoten Museum, which displays local history including 5,000-year-old rock carvings. A reminder of 20th century history can be seen at the War Memorial Museum, which commemorates the occupation of Narvik in the Second World War. The area was sought after as a rich source of iron ore. Nazi Germany suffered its first defeat in Narvik in 1940, and the museum details each dramatic battle with weapons, uniforms, photographs and film. Those who would rather enjoy the beautiful winter scenery may prefer to take the 1,810m cable car ride from the centre of town to the viewpoint on Narvikfjellet mountain for fabulous snowy views over the Ofotfjord and surrounding area. Days 7-8 At Sea Day 9 Newcastle Early this morning we arrive back in Newcastle, where we disembark after breakfast. You will be met and guided to your Titan vehicle, for the journey home.

Introducing Titan Travel

Titan will never compromise on quality. We continue to make every effort to ensure that, when you travel with us, you enjoy the holiday of a lifetime, every time. Every individual aspect of your holiday has been carefully considered to deliver the best ratio of quality and value, provide complete peace of mind and yet still satisfy the most adventurous travel spirit. The expert planning, choice of hotels and transportation methods, included excursions and the services of an expert Titan tour manager can really enhance your appreciation of a destination and transform an ordinary holiday into a truly inspiring one.

Many escorted holidays sold by British tour operators originate in the destination and are aimed at the international market, with multilingual commentaries, sweepingly general itineraries and local contracted hotels and tour managers. Titan holidays are different. They are expertly crafted in-house and are only on sale in the UK; our well-travelled product specialists know their destinations inside out and select the best hotels, airlines, trains and cruise vessels. Properly balanced itineraries, most unique to us, are designed to include excursions and visits of particular interest to British travelers as well as a number of free days when there is always a choice of relaxation or enjoyable things to do. And, in the majority of cases, Titan holidays are escorted by the best tour managers in the business.

Exceptional Value

Quality often comes with a price tag and, indeed, Titan has never striven to be the cheapest tour operator. What you get with us though is unparalleled value for money, with a host of inclusions as standard and a range of exclusive offers and discounts.

Traveling in style
With Titan, not only does your holiday begin and end at your front door, it also includes scheduled international flights with world-renowned airlines and the most memorable form of touring transport. Where this is a coach, we look to provide the best available, with air-conditioning, w/c and daily seat rotation in the interests of fairness. But escorted tours are not simply limited to coaches. Titan is one of the UK’s leading rail specialists and a number of our holidays incorporate journeys on iconic trains, that seem to transport you not only through some of the most dramatic and beautiful landscapes in the world, but also back in time to a nostalgic ‘golden age’ of luxurious and stylish travel.

If you are undecided between the elegance and relaxation of a cruise and the enthralling insight of an escorted tour, Titan’s Cruise & Tour® holidays could be a perfect choice. You can cruise with some of the most respected names in the industry, including Fred.Olsen and Holland America, around regions of awe-inspiring beauty and head ashore for an extra land-based touring element. Alternatively, the waterways of Europe, Egypt and China link the most spectacular cultural gems in picturesque fashion and a river cruise is an outstanding way to appreciate wonderful destinations from a different and more relaxed perspective. Our river cruise partners include Uniworld, multi award-winning operator of 5★ boutique river cruises.

Included Excursions
We don’t believe that our holidaymakers should pay extra for optional excursions to experience what are obviously the most important attractions of a country or region. You get much better value if they are included from the start. Unless otherwise stated, every visit mentioned in the tour itinerary is included in the cost of your holiday.

Quality named hotels and lodges
Hotels on Titan holidays are much more than simply a place to sleep at the end of the day. They may place you at the heart of a thrilling city or in a retreat of sublime tranquillity; reflect the character and heritage of a destination or play an integral part in its social scene; present inspiring views or a range of exhilarating experiences. Location and quality are key considerations. At Titan, we always seek to provide the best of both choosing a lower priced holiday based on lower quality, more remote hotels can often be a false economy in the time and money you end up wasting during your stay.

Low or No Single Supplements

We are always looking at ways of minimizing or eliminating our single supplements. A number of tours featured on this website have low or no single supplements to pay.

The UK's best holiday price promise

It has always been a Titan principle that the earlier you book, the lower the price you pay. Our holiday price promise provides complete peace of mind – if we subsequently reduce the price to below what you have already paid (after any discounts have been applied), we will contact you to refund the difference†!

This guarantee applies to tour prices only (excluding all Traveller, by Titan holidays and any selected loyalty rewards we may offer to past travelers from time to time) and does not include airline upgrades, holiday additions, extended stays or regional connecting flights and selected special offer products.
