About the trip

This 11-night cruise on Ambassador Cruise Line’s Ambition begins and ends in Belfast, with a call at Liverpool before heading north to Norway’s fjords. Austefjorden offers an unusual chance to visit one of the quieter waterways, where stillness lingers longer than usual in the summer light.

The itinerary includes Bergen, a city with wooden wharves and a fish market that spills life onto Bryggen’s rows of old warehouses. Flåm lies at the end of a fjord that climbs steeply into the mountains and is famous for its railway journey. The cruise sails the Sognefjord and Aurlandsfjord, fjords deep enough to have carved their way into Norway’s rough terrain over millennia.

Further north, Geirangerfjord’s waterfalls drop almost theatrically, and the town of Geiranger has that leaning-back look of a place used to quiet summers. Alesund, with its art nouveau architecture, marks the last Norwegian call before returning south to Belfast. The Ambition is small enough to maneuver these fjord waters but quite a distance from the UK, so an early start is part of the deal.
