About the trip
This cruise starts and ends in Liverpool, heading first to Belfast where the city’s mix of history and rejuvenated waterfront makes for a manageable stop before the Norwegian leg. Next comes Geiranger, where the ship slips quietly into the fjord lined by waterfalls you can hear from the deck. A call in Ålesund reveals its distinctive Art Nouveau architecture perched on islands jutting into the Atlantic.
From there, Ambition calls in smaller ports such as Måløy and Flåm, the latter offering a tight harbour ringed by steep cliffs. The cruise navigates both the Sognefjord and its daughter, the Aurlandsfjord, passing close to the scattered farms and forested slopes typical of Norway’s west coast. Austefjorden presents a quieter contrast before a day made for wandering Bergen’s fish markets and colourful wooden wharves.
Ambassador Cruise Line’s Ambition is neat enough to turn in a fjord, which is no small thing when navigating these waters. This cruise gently blends city stops and dramatic scenery, suited to those content with no rush and plenty of daylight to watch the fjord edges slip past.
