Popular on many of the voyages are the benefits of on board experts and lecturers who join selected journeys and add another interesting, interpretive and educational dimension to the voyage. Over the coming pages, we are pleased to offer a number of exciting Theme Voyages, based upon the Hurtigruten itineraries, which will transform your holiday from a wonderful voyage to an interactive and hugely satisfying all-round experience.
Joining the ships in the company of renowned lecturers, local experts and, in some case cases, musicians, these voyages allow travellers to learn more about each particular theme as they navigate through the beautiful Norwegian waters.
Enlightened Itineraries
All of the Norwegian themes join the Voyage North from Bergen to Kirkenes. The bird watching voyages have a more specific itinerary, including visits to key ecological habitats with local experts along the way.
Suitable for All
A passion to understand more about Norway and the theme of the voyage is the only requirement for these journeys. They cater for the lay-person with an interest in the wildlife, history, culture and exploration of the region, though those with a more specialist interest will undoubtedly find time to discuss finer points in more detail with the experts on board.
