<blockquote>&quot;Geirangerfjord is listed in guide to the best things to do in Norway! This 15km-long fjord features tumbling waterfalls, and its beautiful setting provided the inspiration for scenes from Disney’s Frozen.&quot; - Time out</blockquote>

Cruising the Norwegian Fjords: A journey of wonders
Tumbling waterfalls that you can almost touch, majestic mountains that seem to rise higher and higher, and oh-so serene waterways. A Norwegian Fjords cruise is the perfect way to see the breathtaking bucket-list destination.

As we visit the Norwegian Fjords in the summer months it is highly unlikely that you’ll see the Northern Lights, but fear not, you’ve a chance to spot the mesmerising phenomenon on our winter holidays to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pocruises.com/cruise-destinations/norway-cruises">Norway</a>.&nbsp;

Can you see the Northern Lights in the Norwegian Fjords?

The Norwegian Fjords is an astounding landscape made of many narrow deep seas, framed by dramatic mountainous land. The Norwegian fjords were created by moving glaciers over a period of 2.5 million years – Mother Nature certainly took her time to make these marvels.

What are the Norwegian Fjords?

Days are generally bright and long in the summertime - perfect for enjoying all of the region’s natural beauty. During the summer months the Norwegians enjoy spending as much time outdoors revitalising. Most of the snow in the mountains has melted away, so it makes hiking and cycling the terrain all the more easier. In the towns people like to relax with al fresco drinks and barbecues – you’ll find specialties of grilled fish, pork chops and potato salad.&nbsp;

What is summer like in the Norwegian Fjords?

Norwegian is spoken in the Norwegian Fjords. It’s a descendant of Old Norse - the common language of the peoples of the Viking Era.&nbsp;&nbsp;

What languages are spoken in the Norwegian Fjords?

The weather in the Norwegian Fjords can be quite changeable – the Norwegians even have a saying: “There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.” We’d recommend planning for all weather; tops, jumpers, coats and maybe an umbrella!
&nbsp;
During the summer, you could also bring t-shirts, shorts, jeans and perhaps a light jacket and definitely some walking shoes so that you can explore all the magical sights.
&nbsp;
Depending on the dress code on board, you have two choices of what to pack for the evenings. Nights where the dress code is Evening Casual, you can pack your best shirts, dresses and smart, dark denim. For nights where the dress code is Black Tie, make sure to pack your best tux, suit or cocktail dress.
&nbsp;
There are some venues on each cruise ship where dress codes don’t apply, so make sure to check your Horizon paper that’s delivered to your cabin each day to check where these are, as they vary ship by ship. For those travelling on family-friendly ships, dress codes also don’t apply to children aged 17 and under.&nbsp;

Which ships visit Northern Europe and Scandinavia?

The Norwegian Fjords are only one hour ahead of the UK.

What time zone is the Norwegian Fjords in?

The Norwegian Fjords are dotted with picture-perfect towns, and with us you can explore the local cultures and scenery of: Bergen, Stavanger, Skjolden, Olden, Ålesund, Åndalsnes, Geiranger, Haugesund, Hellesylt, Kristiansund, Kristiansand, Trondheim and Nordfjordeid.&nbsp;&nbsp;

What towns are in the Norwegian Fjords?

The breathtaking Norwegian fjords that you can visit on a Norway cruise include: Sunnylvsfjorden, Geirangerfjord, Innvikfjorden, Storfjorden, Nordfjord and Romsdalsfjord.

Which of the Norwegian fjords do P&O Cruises visit?

Visas aren’t required for a Norway Fjords holidays with us on stays shorter than 90 days. However you’ll need to ensure that your passport is valid for at least six months beyond the period of stay. Further official travel advice can be found on the government website: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/norway/entry-requirements

There are refreshments available at the Southampton cruise terminal and plenty of seating to make you comfortable.

Are there refreshments available at the Southampton cruise terminal?

Depending on which cruise you choose, you usually have at least one day at sea before you get to the first port. That means you have at least a full day at sea to get used to your ship and have as much fun as you can squeeze in.

How long does it take to get from Southampton to the first destination? 

Southampton welcomes more than four million visitors each year and is easily accessible from major UK cities by rail, road and air. It’s entirely up to you. You might prefer to drive and park at or near the cruise terminal. Parking at the terminal needs to be pre-booked. Alternatively, why not hop on a coach or train and let someone else do the driving while you relax. And if you live further away, you could always fly into Southampton airport and grab a taxi to the terminal.

What are the transfer options to get to Southampton docks?

There are no size limits for liquid toiletries on P&amp;O Cruises holidays from Southampton. This means you can bring all of your favourite full size toiletries. We allow guests to bring 1 litre of wine or champagne, per person, on board.

What is the liquid allowance on a P&O Cruises holiday departing from Southampton? 

Great news! You’ll be pleased to know that Arcadia, Arvia, Aurora, Britannia, Iona and Ventura sail from Southampton to wonderful destinations all over the world. So take your pick of our Southampton cruises and set sail.
