Highlights
Hardangerfjord with waterfalls visible from deck
Flam and its steep-sided valley
Sognefjord and Aurlandsfjord cruise
Andalsnes by Romsdalsfjord’s sheer cliffs
Olden near retreating glaciers
This cruise sets off from Newcastle Tyne for nearly two weeks aboard Ambassador’s Ambition, navigating some of Norway’s best-known fjords and towns. Ports include Eidfjord, near the waterfall-strewn Hardangerfjord, and Haugesund, a quiet town with Viking roots.
Journeys
Thirteen days aboard Ambassador’s Ambition, cruising Norway’s fjords including Hardangerfjord, Sognefjord and Lysefjord, with calls at Flam, Bergen and Olden for waterfalls, mountains and glaciers close at hand.
Further into the trip, the ship moors at Flam, gateway to the Sognefjord and Aurlandsfjord; Flam’s steep valley and historic railway often draw curious visitors. Andalsnes brings the chance to see the dramatic Romsdalsfjord, with its sheer rock faces. Later, Olden lies close to glaciers that hang over valleys, while Bergen’s fish market and wooden wharves recall its Hanseatic past. The cruise also calls at Sandnes before returning north via Boknafjord.
Ambassador’s Ambition is a modest vessel, small enough to ease into narrow fjord inlets where larger ships dare not venture. The pace allows time for quiet mornings watching water tumble down cliffs and glaciers glinting in the low sun. It begins and ends at Newcastle, providing a straightforward route for travellers based in northern Britain who do not want to fly to Oslo or Bergen first.
