Northern Lights Cruises

This exciting range of short break cruises and longer voyages has been carefully designed to experience the best of Arctic Norway in winter. With the sun low on the horizon above the Arctic Circle, the different shades of Arctic light creates wonderful backdrops to the stunning snowy coastal scenery.

The real star of the show on winter Norway cruises is the incredible Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis. Our cruises above the Arctic Circle between November and March, far away from towns and artificial light, are the best chance to experience the colourful, ghostly swirls of light in the dark sky. Although sightings of the extraordinary Aurora Borealis cannot be guaranteed, there are more occurrences in Arctic Norway than anywhere else in the world!

For most winter travellers, the Northern Lights is just the ‘icing on the cake’ of an already remarkable winter cruise holiday in Arctic Norway, when the natural, unspoilt beauty of the Norwegian coast is decked in snow and the air is fresh, clean and crisp.

As well as enjoying the dramatic Norwegian scenery from the comfort of the ship, there is a wide range of optional excursions to enhance your Norway cruise holiday. Experience the exhilaration of dog sledging or a snowmobile excursion , the unique Kirkenes Snow Hotel or King Crab Safari.

With interesting guided city walks in beautiful Bergen and Art Nouveau Alesund and visits to the North Cape or the Russian border, you’re sure to take home memories that will last a lifetime.

As the UK's leading Northern Lights cruise specialists we offer 4-10 night Northern Lights cruises, two with flights direct to Tromso, the capital of Arctic Norway.
