Piaa Posted December 2, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Hi everyone - considering the Viking Saturn in July 2024, 26 night, Stockholm to Iceland (Norway heavy) cruise and as I am not familiar with the region (just started to consider this cruise) are there any "do not miss" or "make sure you stop at **** port" that we should be sure the sailing visits. Thank you for any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBs mum Posted December 2, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Depends what your interests are. There is no way to answer as Norway has lots of areas/aspects of interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for any suggestions. A bit too vague - what people may like or think is not to be missed might not fit into the types of places you like. Let us know what are the kinds of places that you like? (i.e. cities, small towns, places with hiking or adventure, walking places, touristy places). Norway has it all. So - it all depends on your interests. We did Midnight Sun last summer and there was a wide variety of places from large to small, unique to similar. Anyone of which could be labeled by someone as can't miss (or conversely, avoid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for any suggestions. You could easily spend a year there and not see “everything”- - I have been there at least 20 times and there are still places I have never been. Are you mostly interested in nature, WWII history, Vikings, food, handicrafts, fjords or? Ask away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stcroixguy Posted December 3, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Janetcbl, we are cruising in May, Amsterdam to Bergen with the Bergen / Oslo extension. We take the train from Bergen to Oslo. Should we do Norway in a nutshell or is this a repeat of our scheduled transfer to Oslo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never done the Viking transfer Bergen to Oslo, but I do not think it includes the side trip to Flam. The train ride itself spends about 3 hours in magnificent scenery (Bergen - Geilo), but after that it is less spectacular. Personally, I would do the transfer on my own, including an overnight in Flam. A TA can arrange it, including forwarding your heavy luggage from Bergen to your hotel in Oslo. Hope this info in helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
