Rare alyssamma Posted October 8, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Hi, I was wondering if taking an excursion that sails the fjords (on a much smaller boat) gives that much of a different experience than sailing into/out of the fjord on a cruise ship. There are (obviously) a lot of things I want to do on each stop, so trying to determine what, if anything, I'd miss if my only time on the fjord was on the ship. Also, for anyone who has kayaked the fjords, any feedback on that would be welcome. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallasm Posted October 8, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 8, 2022 The scenic viewings from a cruise ship compared to a smaller boat navigating the same fjords a very similar. In general all the deep Norwegian fjords can be navigated by big bruise ships. in the ports you can visit the viewpoints, train rides, hiking or visit glaciers - depending on ports of call. I have no experience with kayaking in Norway but I will assume that kayaking will be an experience in itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayaking would be fun, but i would not choose that just for the views of the fjord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
