The time the ship will be in port will vary from cruise to cruise and port to port. For each cruise in this brochure we have indicated under each port whether our port call will be a morning, an afternoon, a full day or longer. In this summary you will find a guide to how long the ship will usually be in port in each case.
A morning call will be a minimum of 4 1\2 hours and a maximum of 6 1\2 hours with the ship usually arriving between 8am and 9am and normally departing between 1pm and 2pm.

Please note that the timings given above are guidelines only for the time the ship will be in port and the actual times may vary. We will provide you with information on board so you are able to stay informed about our estimated times of arrival and departure each day. In addition to the above call timings, there are occasions where our ships cruise past scenic points such as cruising in fjords, off the North Cape or through the Panama Canal. In these cases we have given an approximate time of day that we would expect this to take place.
