Don't expect a typical "cruise" experience. Expect something more. The Norwegian Coastal Express is a different kind of voyage. The journey, ships, ports and scenery and the history behind it results in a unique, special and authentic experience like no other. 

130-year old route, connecting the coastal communities of Norway

The Norwegian Coastal Express starts in the historic city of Bergen, and stretches all the way to Kirkenes. The 12-day voyage covers 2,500 nautical miles, showcasing unique scenes and landscapes that will take your breath away.

Our ships anchors at 34 different coastal ports, both day and night. In smaller locations the stops range from 10 to 45 minutes, but in larger cities you will get more time to explore. Destinations visited at night while heading north can be appreciated in daylight on the way back.
