Join us on board Columbus for a Bank Holiday voyage to explore two glorious fjords and two of Europe’s most historic port-cities. Cross to Holland to spend a relaxed day strolling along the canalside paths and cobbled streets of Amsterdam, then relax on board Columbus as she sails north to Norway’s epic coastline. Cruise the twists and turns of Hardangerfjord, through a landscape of deep forests and towering mountains to Eidfjord, and navigate the vastness of Sognefjord on your way to the tiny village of Flam.
Fill your days with optional shore excursions, and follow crystal-clear rivers to hidden waterfalls or ride a mountain train through the spectacular scenery, and complete your fjordland cruise adventure with a day in Norway's delightful second city, Bergen, the unofficial capital of the fjords.

Today Columbus makes her way into Hardangerfjord. Be on deck early to get your first glimpse of this stunning landscape - sheer mountainsides plunging into still waters, unspoilt forests, and pristine glaciers overlooked by soaring peaks.

Don't miss the chance to stroll through the ancient Bryggen area, or admire the wonderful views of the city from the summit of 'Mount' Floyen, which are brought into easy reach on the Floibanen funicular railway.
