Cruise into tranquil scenery

This very special cruise, departing from Hull, showcases western Norway at its glorious best. Enjoy all the pleasures of life onboard Marco Polo as you cruise deep into Norway’s pristine interior, along three exquisite fjords. Calls at Eidfjord, Flåm, Olden, Åndalsnes and colourful Bergen make this a voyage to remember.

Join much-loved Marco Polo as she sets sail from Hull to Eidfjord, nestled in a breathtaking location along Hardangerfjord, where dense forests cling to towering mountain slopes high above crystal-clear waters. The next ports of call are dramatic Flåm on Sognefjord, home of the famous mountain railway, spectacular Olden, deep in the Nordfjord and picturesque Åndalsnes. This memorable cruise is completed by an enjoyable stop at Bergen, home to a pretty old town, lined with colourful wooden buildings.

Day One – Depart Hull, UK

Depart: 1315hrs

Board Marco Polo in Hull, today, and settle in to your cabin as she prepares to set sail.
Day Two – At sea

Spend today relaxing, and getting to know the ship, her crew and your fellow passengers.
Day Three – Eidfjord, Norway

Arrive: 0900hrs

Depart: 1400hrs

Hardangerfjord stretches over 100 kilometres into the Norwegian interior, and this morning Marco Polo heads into its stunning landscape of sheer, forested mountainsides and still waters. Your port here is tiny Eidfjord, an oasis of tranquillity from which you might have the chance to take an optional excursion to Vøringfossen waterfalls.
Day Four – Flåm, Sognefjord, Norway

Arrive: 0830hrs

Depart: 1700hrs

The tiny village of Flåm lies at the inner end of Aurlandsfjord, one of Sognefjord’s most remote corners. From here, you might enjoy an unforgettable excursion, boarding the world-famous Flåmsbana Mountain Railway for the beautiful journey to Myrdal, before joining a coach to travel through yet more breathtaking scenery.
Day Five – Olden, Norway

Arrive: 1100hrs

Depart: 1900hrs

Today’s call is at Olden. This is the stopping-off point for a trip through the beautiful surrounding countryside to the famous Briksdal Glacier, part of the vast Jostedalsbreen ice-pack, which broods over the eastern reaches of the fjord.
Day Six – Åndalsnes, Norway

Arrive: 0900hrs

Depart: 1600hrs

Marco Polo cruises into beautiful Romsdalsfjord and makes her way to Åndalsnes, today. From here, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy an excursion through some of Norway’s most spectacular mountain scenery, and perhaps a chance to visit the famous wooden Rødven stave church in its dreamy setting beside the fjord.
Day Seven – Bergen, Norway

Arrive: 0900hrs

Depart: 1700hrs

Compact and friendly, Bergen was once a great trading city within the Hanseatic League. It remains Norway's second city and, despite being sheltered from the sea by its seven hills and outlying islands, is unashamedly nautical in outlook. Visit the vibrant harbour and fish market, stroll past the wooden warehouses of Bryggen and take the Fløibanen funicular to the summit of Fløyfjellet.
Day Eight – At sea

Your final full day is spent at sea, no doubt reliving the memories of your cruise holiday as Marco Polo heads for home.
Day 9 – Arrive Hull, UK

Arrive: 0915hrs

Bid farewell to Marco Polo and all your fellow travellers, today, as you disembark at the end of your cruise.

Days marked above with an anchor include ports where you will be transferred to shore by landing boat. These ports may be inaccessible for customers with mobility difficulties as a result. Any days not listed will be spent at sea.
