Cruise and rail holidays in Scandinavia & the Arctic
Put simply, Scandinavia is the birthplace of exploratory cruises, its seafaring tradition spanning from the Vikings to the great polar adventurers of the 19th century. And, you can trace their routes to this day, weaving between Norway’s coastal islands and linking Greenland with Canada on an iceberg-passage cruise. You can even travel aboard the famed Polar Express. It's all lit by the celestial dance of the Northern Lights, while summer offers fjord cruises under the Midnight Sun.
