10 ports plotted · click a marker for details
Day 1
Southampton , England
Thursday, 10/06/2027
Sail into this vibrant quay with enough shops and entertainment to form its own village. Modern and lively, this coastal town bustles with waterfront restaurants, heritage charm, bars, cinemas and offers great access to other spots in the South of England. Sit back and drift through heavenly countryside to ancient Stonehenge, see if the Queen’s at home in Windsor, learn secrets from the Bombay Sapphire gin distillery or slip up to London for some rich British culture. Then enjoy a cup of tea as you reflect on formal traditions, perfect your cockney accent and recall England’s green and pleasant lands.
Day 4
Trondheim , Norway
Sunday, 13/06/2027
Inspiring adventures await within seafood-rich fjords and fertile mountain ranges. Once the Viking capital, Trondheim continues to reign with its vibrant, academic city life. Discover the stylish Bakklandet, vast Nidaros Cathedral, the Gamle Bybro bridge and the river Nidelva where rainbow-coloured huts align. Venture through an abundance of wildlife and forests, gently sail, fish or seek a thrilling RIB adventure. Head for the skies; take the world’s northernmost tram to marvel at champion ski jumps, then return back to earth with a private organ concert. Sip spirited Norwegian aquavit at an elegant tasting as you connect with Trondheim’s fusion of history, adventure and innovation, surrounded by beautifully rich nature.
Day 5
Brønnøysund , Norway
Monday, 14/06/2027
Visit a pretty little town where even the ducks have homes built for them. Stroll through coastal street life taking in the bustling marina and a medieval church. Fly high to admire bobbing fishing boats and lighthouses in the shadow of rugged islands. Surprise at the bespoke duck houses and, when you sink into bed, be grateful for your own feathered nest.
Day 6
Leknes , Norway
Tuesday, 15/06/2027
Land in Leknes for dramatic landscapes and Viking ancestry. With a backdrop of turbulent Norwegian seas and soaring mountains, you can hike, helicopter or horse-ride to deep fjords and long beaches – home to a wide variety of seabirds. Safari by RIB, surf the world’s most northerly waves and scuba dive through coral reef waters – where otters and puffins reside or saunter through fishing villages sheltering colourful huts. Once you've built up a strong appetite, enjoy platters of smorgasbord accompanied by world-famous Norwegian lager or, perhaps, a wild berry wine.
Day 7
Tromsø , Norway
Wednesday, 16/06/2027
The sun never sets in this cultural Arctic wilderness. Blending urban city ambiance with outstanding nature, wonder at Tromsø's sustainable roots. Embrace the true polar essence of this capital city, from the Arctic Cathedral to an alpine spa experience. Hike up Mount Floya for memorable views, run or sled with huskies and ride off the beaten track on e-bikes. Glide across waters to greet humpback whales and seals as you deep sea fish. Then head back into town for long cozy lunches of seagull eggs, grilled stockfish and reindeer sirloin. And as you savour a micro-brewed beer, muse over the Sami culture and stories of forbidden mythical joik.
Day 8
Honningsvåg , Norway
Thursday, 17/06/2027
Touch the edge of the world in the brisk polar climate of this Northern Cape. Wrap up warm for extreme excursions; overland on quad bikes, over water on marine bird safari adventures, or take to the skies and fly over never-ending roads to the North Cape. Revive your soul with delicious king crab and heart-warming drinks in ice-clad bars before settling down to share moments of mystery in this hidden corner of the world.
Day 9
Harstad , Norway
Friday, 18/06/2027
Day 11
Ålesund , Norway
Sunday, 20/06/2027
Spread across several islands, you’ll soon understand why this is recognised as one of Norway’s most beautiful cities with its fjords, mountains, spectacular nature and undiscovered treasures. Paddle through the city centre by kayak, paddleboard or stroll to view art nouveau architecture, antiques, an open-air museum and Viking attractions. Head to nearby islands to discover precious Bronze age-old Giske artefacts or surf in world-renowned Godoy. Hike, fish, bird watch or simply take in the sights on a RIB adventure. End your uplifting experience with fresh-off-the-boat crab and crayfish or sample delectable, local, home-made fish soup.
Day 12
Leirvik , Norway
Monday, 21/06/2027
