Hurtigruten has
combined many of the elements of its coastal and explorer programmes for a
one-off winter expedition voyage on MS Finnmarken. A dedicated expedition team
will be on-board the ship to enhance the experience and deliver a programme of
activities above that normally offered on the coastal voyage.
The 12-day voyage will follow the traditional Hurtigruten coastal route,
departing from Bergen on 7 December, before sailing along the picturesque
Norwegian coast to Kirkenes near the Russian border – from where the voyage back
to Bergen begins.
Guests will have the
chance to enjoy all of the activities currently offered on coastal voyages, but
with a huge array of additional sea and land-based activities, a trip to the
North Cape, talks by guest lecturers and numerous
hikes.
While on board you can hear Pål Brekke (a
solar physicist from the Norwegian Space Centre) giving a lecture on the
fascinating Aurora Borealis, or join one of the other daily talks by the
expedition team.
Prices start from
£849pp and includes the voyage from Bergen to Kirkenes and back to Bergen
on full board basis in an inside cabin, North Cape excursion, hikes, lectures
and a Helly Hansen fleece jacket. Flight and transfer
packages are available from an additional £330 per person.
