About the trip
Set off from Newcastle for a week aboard Fred. Olsen’s Bolette, heading north to Norway’s capital. Oslo offers enough to fill a day, from the sleek Opera House to green parks where Norwegians practice friluftsliv – their outdoorsy way of life.
The voyage threads through the Oslofjord’s islands before crossing into Sweden to touch Malmo, a city where old brick warehouses sit beside glass towers and a fascinating mix of cultures. The next stop is Copenhagen, where an extended visit allows a slow appreciation of Denmark’s approach to coziness, or hygge, in places like the Nyhavn canal and atmospheric cafés.
The cruise also includes time cruising Gullmarsfjorden, a quieter waterway lined with pine-clad hills. The round trip from Newcastle provides a gentle introduction to Scandinavia’s coastlines and capitals without rushing, all on a ship small enough to make turns in these fjord waters with ease.
