Hurtigruten Ships - 590 Guests

Follow The Lights (Northbound)

17 Day. Oslo to Helsinki 2024-2025


Your fully escorted small group tour begins from Norway’s capital city, Oslo. During your journey you’ll ride one of the world’s most famous trains, the Flåm Railway, before joining The Coastal Express northbound voyage. Visit charming hamlets, sail through picturesque fjords and hopefully see the magnificent Northern Lights on this journey up into Arctic Norway.

From Kirkenes in Norway’s far north, you’ll then head south into Finnish Lapland and enjoy gazing up at the night sky inside your glass igloo. Then discover Rovaniemi, the official home town of Santa Claus.

Hurtigruten Ships (Expedition, 590-guests)

Hurtigruten has a fleet of coastal ships that have their own onboard Expedition Team and serve as a university at sea. Interesting lectures, presentations and activities inside as well as out on the sun deck of the ships make it an exciting and educational journey. Topics depend on the season and the waters the ships sail in. The Expedition Team hosts a lecture and presentation program and evening gatherings daily. Out on deck you may participate in live points of interest to learn more about the nature, culture and other phenomena we encounter along the coast.
