Discover Iceland: Hurtigruten Invites You to an Arctic Adventure
Explore the breathtaking landscapes of Iceland with Hurtigruten's new tours combining Nordic culture and nature.
Imagine the midnight sun illuminating Finland’s pristine lakes, husky paws tracing paths through the serene Lapland, and Iceland’s waterfalls crashing against volcanic sands. Hurtigruten, renowned for its legacy across Norway’s picturesque fjords, unveils three new tours that meld Iceland’s striking beauty with Nordic wilderness, rich culture, and celestial experiences.
Grand Nordic Adventure: A 19-Day Odyssey
From the heart of Helsinki, this adventure kicks off in July and traverses railways through Finland’s birch-laden forests to the cheerful atmosphere of the Santa Claus Hotel. Guests will be whisked away by huskies into the wilderness, where Sámi elders narrate ancient tales. Following this, a six-day Southbound Coastal Express from Kirkenes to Bergen reveals UNESCO-listed fjords, culminating in Iceland’s vibrant scenes: Reykjavik, the Blue Lagoon, and Þingvellir’s geological wonders. Prices start from $7,533 per person, inclusive of full board — a thorough immersion into nature.
Nordic Winter Journey: Chase the Northern Lights
This 13-day expedition in Finland encompasses the thrill of auroras from glass-roofed accommodations. Participants can enjoy snowmobiles, snowshoes gliding through tranquil snowy vistas, and sleigh bells ringing on reindeer trails. The exploration of Sámi culture continues at Inari’s SIIDA Museum; Nærøyfjord shines with UNESCO accolades while Flåm Railway provides scenic routes through mountains. Starting at $5,371 per person, this journey taps into winter’s sparkling essence.
Norway’s Capital and Coast: Oslo’s Beauty Meets Fjord Splendor
During the summer season, Oslo’s museums and parks offer a six-day Coastal Express journey, revealing eight UNESCO sites, including Geiranger’s waterfall and the vibrant alleys of Bergen. Prices are from $3,517 per person, providing a refined taste of Norway’s essence.
Explore A Collection of Arctic Legends
These new offerings join Hurtigruten’s prestigious collection: Follow the Northern Lights (17/15 days from Oslo to Helsinki), luxurious stays in glass villas during Savor the Lights, and summer experiences with Follow the Midnight Sun from Stockholm to Lapland. Arctic explorations extend to Svalbard with self-guided gems like Best of Norway, combining train rides and fjord cruises. Additional options include Astronomy Voyages and Culinary experiences, enriching every journey.
“Hurtigruten specializes in immersive travel experiences,” states Carly Biggart, Head of Hurtigruten Americas. “From chasing the Northern Lights to exploring the Midnight Sun, we welcome all to the elegance of the Nordics.”
