But this sailing is in early May. I hate HAL's itinerary. Seems like this is the only company deliberately reducing deep fjords port of calls. Not even a single sailing visiting 2 deep fjords even in 14 days. Edited February 22 by tc-cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakridger Posted February 23 #2 Share Posted February 23 Okay. Then why don't you go on a cruise line that visits the ports you want? I don't understand your issue. ~Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitkat343 Posted February 23 #3 Share Posted February 23 Olden, Geiranger and Flam were my three favorite ports. Alesund is much beloved on these forums (not on my cruise so I have no personal experience). The road to the highest views in Geiranger is seasonal and opens between mid may and early June. We sailed on May 18th and missed the opening by three days. There are several other lovely viewpoints in Geiranger, plus a beautiful lake you visit if you can't get to the highest points. The only thing I'd want to note is that we had three ports in which we could potentially have really amazing views (Olden, Flam and Geiranger). The weather was beautiful in Geiranger and we could really appreciate the view. But it was rainier and foggier in Olden and Flam, so we were really grateful we'd had three days so we had a better shot at one really good weather day. For Norway we generally recommend sailing for itinerary, so perhaps you'd want to research alternatives if these aren't meeting your needs? I've sailed HAL, and found them to be very similar to Cunard and Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
