Imagine the midnight sun gilding Finland’s frozen lakes, husky paws carving trails through Lapland’s silence, and Iceland’s waterfalls thundering against volcanic black sands. Hurtigruten, the custodians of Norway’s fjord-kissed legacy, now extends its realm with three captivating new tours — weaving Iceland into a tapestry of Nordic wilderness, culture, and celestial pursuits.
Grand Nordic Adventure: A 19-Day Odyssey
From Helsinki’s Nordic poise, this July-launching odyssey spans rail through Finland’s birch forests to the Santa Claus Hotel’s festive hearth. Huskies pull you into the wild; Sámi elders share ancient lore. Then, a six-day Southbound Coastal Express from Kirkenes to Bergen unfurls UNESCO fjords, before wings carry you to Iceland’s raw drama: Reykjavik’s pulse, the Blue Lagoon’s geothermal embrace, Þingvellir’s tectonic chasm. From $7,533 per person, full board — pure immersion.
Nordic Winter Journey: Lapland’s Northern Lights Ballet
In remote Finnish fastness, 13 days chase auroras from glass-domed camps. Snowmobiles roar, snowshoes hush through Arctic expanses, sleigh bells echo on reindeer trails. Sámi heritage unfolds at Inari’s SIIDA Museum; Nærøyfjord gleams UNESCO-gold; Flåm Railway spirals through mountains. The Coastal Express seals it. From $5,371 per person — winter’s luminous heart.
Norway’s Capital and Coast: Oslo’s Charm to Fjord Majesty
Summer whispers Oslo’s museums and parks into a six-day Coastal Express revelation — eight UNESCO wonders, from Geiranger’s plunge to Bergen’s Hanseatic alleys. From $3,517 per person, a refined entrée to Norway’s soul.
A Portfolio of Arctic Legends
These join Hurtigruten’s pantheon: Follow the Northern Lights (17/15 days Oslo-Helsinki), glass-villa luxuries in Savor the Lights, Stockholm-to-Lapland midnight sun in Follow the Midnight Sun. Arctic frontiers beckon via Svalbard extensions; self-guided gems like Best of Norway blend Flåm’s rails with Nærøyfjord cruises. Add-ons — Astronomy Voyages, Culinary quests — elevate every horizon.
“Hurtigruten crafts destination immersion,” reflects Carly Biggart, Head of Hurtigruten Americas. “From Northern Lights chases to Midnight Sun trails, our portfolio welcomes all to the Nordics’ wild elegance.”
