Tue 1 Aug

Bergen, Norway
Unlock this fascinating ‘Gateway to the Fjords’, Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen is home to over 200,000 people. Maritime trade and oil industry are still vital to the city’s economy. Visit medieval wooden houses on the waterfront and peek inside the workshops of local painters, weavers and craftsmen where works of art – some better than others – await discovery.

Wed 2 Aug - anchor

Geiranger, Norway
This small village is one of the most visited locales in Norway’s fjord lands. If you love waterfalls, you’re in the right place. In steep, stunning Geirangerfjord, the Seven Sisters -Geirangers scenic waterfalls, forever woo the Suitor, another cascade on the opposite shore. A tour to Mount Dalsnibba (1500m high) presents views of this spectacular area in unrivalled glory.

Akureyri, Iceland
Established in the mid-17th century, Akureyri is home to Iceland’s largest fishing company and its biggest shipyard. Viking sagas, spectacular fjords, snow-capped mountains... Iceland’s ‘Capital of the North’ is also surprisingly mild and the so-called Green Town is made for those long summer days.

Sat 5 Aug - anchor

Isafjordur, Iceland
Keep your binoculars handy. Iceland’s western fjords are prime whale watching waters and, if your luck’s in, you may just spot a telltale spout of water.

Sun 6 Aug

Reykjavik, Iceland
A mass of brightly coloured corrugated iron roofs is a familiar sight here in the world’s most northern capital city. Experience the incredible views of the Golden Waterfall and wonder at the spouting geysers. Join in a national pastime – shopping! Designer labels, local wool, gourmet treats, even a flea market, it’s all right here.

Mon 7 Aug
At Sea

Tue 8 Aug
Torshavn, Faroe Islands

Wed 9 Aug

Kirkwall, Orkney Islands
Kirkwall possesses a Norse heritage that stretches back almost a century; indeed the Vikings laid the first foundations for St Magnus Cathedral – the most northerly in Britain – built from yellow and red local sandstone. You can also learn the history of the radio at the Wireless Museum and sample the island’s peaty single malts at the Highland Park Distillery.

Thu 10 Aug

Fri 11 Aug

Southampton, United Kingdom
The United Kingdom's premier passenger ship port, Southampton was home to the great transatlantic liners of yesteryear.
