  • Immerse yourself in the coastline, the fishing villages, and the magnificent landscapes of Norwegian Lapland.
  • Discover the Lofoten archipelago, a jewel offering wild nature and a Viking heritage.
  • Varied landscapes: archipelagos, coastal panoramas, snow-covered peaks and expanses home to reindeer and seabirds.

With featured guest Ian Dawson, British Photo Ambassador.

Winter is silently approaching, and near the Arctic Circle daylight is slowly fading, giving way to the long twilight that precedes the darkness. Take the time to discover the shores of Norway, including the breathtaking Lofoten archipelago. See the North Cape, the tip of mainland Europe, and explore the rugged coastline at the edge of the Arctic and the natural sanctuaries of Norway: dolomite cliffs, an archaeological site dating from the Bronze Age, pine forests, and Lapland, home to the Sami, one of Europe's last indigenous communities.

The itinerary may be altered based on port approvals and to comply with applicable government regulations  The sailing programme, shore visits, activities and wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed and are subject to weather conditions.
