Experience pristine Arctic wilderness that’s scarcely changed since Hurtigruten first sailed this summer voyage to Svalbard in 1968. Enjoy the return of an icon from over 50 years ago. The Svalbard Express is a nostalgic voyage back to the northernmost reaches of the world, bathed in the ever-changing light of Norway’s summer sun. The return of The Svalbard Express showcases the best of then and now. The ground-breaking spirit. Remote hamlets splashed with red rorbuer. Historic ports. Rarely visited islands. Pristine Arctic wilderness prowled by polar bears and sea eagles.
Hurtigruten makes history by sailing from Oslo for the first time, visiting ports new to Hurtigruten as well as old favourites and venturing into the Arctic Circle - realm of winter's Northern Lights. From vibrant capital Oslo, MS Trollfjord sails to Norway’s oldest lighthouse at Lindesnes, the country’s southernmost point, and sets course for the most northerly, North Cape in the snow-covered reaches of 71 north. The ship will spend up to six hours at each port -that showcase the iconic flavours, adventures, and pristine beauty of Norway.
Hurtigruten commemorates its 130-year anniversary by launching two new voyages: The Svalbard Express and The North Cape Express. On board Hurtigruten's ships in 2023, several lectures delivered by your Coastal Experience Team will focus on Hurtigruten's long history as a lifeline to Norwegian coastal communities, including personal stories from local guests and crew members. You’ll also observe a few selected old-fashioned Norwegian maritime traditions during your voyage. These nostalgic rituals will turn back time, allowing you to experience an evocative golden age of sailing.
MS Polarlys was refurbished in 2016 and now features a modern, Arctic-inspired interior. On board are three different restaurants, the Multe bakery and ice cream bar, a sauna and fitness room. Out on deck you can enjoy the view from one of Hurtigruten's two hot tubs. Hurtigruten has a comfortable bar at the front of the ship where you can enjoy a nice traditional drink. The vessel also has a large compass area where you find the reception, the Coastal Experience Team, conference room and shop. Hurtigruten's Original Norwegian Coastal Express voyage is your pure and unfiltered escape to the charming everyday life of the Norwegian coast.
Come join Anders Husa as he explores the flavours from the Norwegian coast! The authentic, delicious meals in Hurtigruten's onboard restaurants feature ingredients sourced from the areas we sail to. With Hurtigruten, you won’t just see the coast; you’ll taste it too.
