Please help me decide between two cruises. All ports are the same except for these differences.

 

HAL Konisgdam goes to Eidfjord and Geiranger

 

Princess Emerald goes to Gravdal and Tromso

 

both 14 nights

Since you're already visiting Flåm and Olden, you will get to see some fjord scenery, so this becomes a question of interest.

 

Eidfjord and Geiranger will both give you more fjord scenery, and Geirangerfjord is certainly one of the most dramatic. If fjords are your top draw for this cruise, then this is probably the one you want.

 

If you want a little more variety, Tromsø and Lofoten (Gravdal) both have very dramatic scenery with mountains right alongside the ocean. Lofoten is often considered by Norwegians to be the most beautiful scenery in Norway. These are beautiful places, and there's a lot to do in Tromsø, but they aren't the iconic fjord scenery.

 

Personally, I would choose Gravdal and Tromsø, because I love them both, and I enjoy the variety! However, Geirangerfjord is beautiful and skipping it is also a tough choice.
