Polar Regions Arctic Cruise

Nordic Discoveries & Traditions

Cruise along the Norwegian coastline for natural beauty: cliffs carved by the sea and the wind, wild fjords, snow-capped mountains and frosted landscapes. Cross the Arctic Circle, seek the northern lights and discover millennial traditions such as reindeer herding.

The main Nordic Discoveries & Traditions itinerary conveniently operates round-trip from Tromso and uniquely visits Hammerfest, considered the northernmost town in the world, and Honningsvag, the northernmost point in Europe. The alternative Ancient Traditions & Norwegian Fjords itinerary mostly cruises Norway but spends more time at sea and uniquely ends in Copenhagen, Denmark.

This Nordic cruise features the elegant sister explorer ships 180-guest Le Bellot and 184-guest Le Champlain. On either ship, enjoy refined and attentive service, a plethora of onboard activities and unrivaled elegance. Appreciate her understated sophistication, international feel and top-notch guides. Enjoy 100% private balconies or terraces, innovative equipment, elegantly designed guest accommodations, welcoming lounge areas that open to the outside and the Blue Eye underwater lounge–a multi-sensory space in the ship’s hull featuring hydrophones, expansive underwater views and other amenities that create the feeling of being underwater beside the marine life that the ship is sailing past. Plus, a variety of onboard activities engage travelers while sailing between anchorages.
