FjoRdland SPlEndoUR Sail froM dundee aBoard Magellan

Enjoy Norway’s spectacular fjords in all their glory on this very special cruise.

Spring is the perfect season to witness rushing waterfalls tumbling into the fjords’ mirror-calm waters and admire lush green hills surrounded by rugged mountains with snow-capped peaks. Bergen, the “fjord capital” is set amongst seven hills with medieval houses, colonnaded shops and lively cafés lining the cobbled streets. Sögnefjord is regarded as the “King of the Fjords” while Geirangerfjord is perhaps the most beautiful fjord of them all. We also explore some of the quaintly charming villages that create a vibrant splash of colour along the dramatic Norwegian coast such as picture postcard Eidfjord where the mountains reflect in the deep blue water and fairytale Flåm where you might care to board the amazing railway, full of zig-zags and tunnels.

Holiday Highlights • Ulvik • Cruising Hardangerfjord • Eidfjord • Cruising Sögnefjord • Flåm • Cruising Naeroyfjord to view Gudvangen • Cruising Geirangerfjord • Geiranger • Bergen
