The Classic Round Voyage

On board our ships, large, comfortable lounges give unequalled views as we glide silently and slowly through some of the world's most beautiful and untouched scenery. As you would expect, the highest standards of design, complemented by works of art inspired by the land and seascapes through which we sail.

RELAXED AND INFORMAL
No dressing up for dinner – no fuss, no frenzy – our aim is to sail calmly through the crisp clean air, close to the ever-changing environment. Open seating for the buffet at breakfast and lunchtime creates a relaxed atmosphere in which to contemplate the sights already seen and anticipate those still to come.

FRESH SEASONAL CUISINE
Menus are planned around fresh, seasonal ingredients and take advantage of local produce to satisfy appetites stimulated by the fresh sea air. The restaurants are fully licensed and the set dinner at your reserved table becomes an occasion to exchange the experiences of the day before enjoying coffee in one of the lounges or perhaps something stronger in one of the bars.

FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL CREW
A multi-lingual Tour Manager is on board the Norwegian Coastal Voyage to assist with the shore excursions, help you to book if you have not pre-booked your trips ashore, provide information on the highlights of the day and ensure that you will never forget your crossing of the Arctic Circle. Additionally, there is a Reception Desk open 24 hours a day.

SIMPLE STYLE
There may be some musical entertainment in the bar and occasionally there may be a local choir or band in one of the lounges, but there is no organised entertainment programme to detract from the gentle flow of your voyage.

SPACE TO LEARN
Lecture theatres and meeting rooms are available on most ships, creating an ideal environment in which to listen to a guest lecturer on one of our Theme Voyages. If you are travelling on one of our Hurtigruten Explorer voyages a team of tour guides and/or lecturers will be on hand to give briefings and lectures and answer any questions you might have.

EXTRA COMFORTS
All ships, except for the older, smaller, vessels have a lift, a library to really 'get away from it all' and a café serving snacks 24 hours a day (Norwegian Coastal Voyage only). The newer additions to the fleet have Jacuzzis and a fitness room and MS Finnmarken boasts an outdoor swimming pool.

COASTAL HERITAGE
When not seeking the wildlife of Antarctica, Spitsbergen and Greenland, or exploring the islands and fjords of Norway the fleet is proud to serve as a lifeline; working ships carrying passengers and cargo along 2000 kilometres of spectacular coastline. The schedule caters for short stops day and night as well as longer stays in exciting and fascinating ports to allow exploration ashore. We are delighted to invite you to join us and be part of this heritage.
