Edinburgh

Embarking on a British Isles and Northern European cruise from the picturesque city of Edinburgh is an extraordinary experience.

The Norwegian Fjords present a kaleidoscope of stunning vistas and exciting ports of call. From the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Geirangerfjord , with its stunning waterfalls and verdant cliffs, to the charming village of Flåm nestled amidst towering mountains, every destination has its own unique appeal. Journey past vibrant ports such as Bergen , known as the gateway to the fjords, or the historic town of Ålesund with its distinctive Art Nouveau architecture. Cruising through these waterways, you'll find the natural environment unfolds like a perfectly executed symphony, where dramatic cliffs plunge into the tranquil blue water below.

Norwegian Fjords out of Edinburgh Cruise Schedule 2024

Exploring the Norwegian Fjords isn't limited to viewing from the ship; there are plenty of opportunities for off-board adventure. From thrilling RIB-boat tours that skim across the fjord's waters, to picturesque hiking trails that crisscross the stunning landscape, adventure awaits at every turn. Biking along the scenic Flåm railway, or kayaking in the tranquil waters of the fjords, presents another perspective of these geological wonders. Embark on a fjord safari to get up close to the magnificent waterfalls or try your hand at fishing in the rich marine life-filled waters.

Onboard Activities

Each day on board offers delicious dining options, world-class entertainment and enriching activities.

BarsandLounges

The Bow Lounge provides the closest access to water level making it the perfect spot for guests to spend some time watching for marine life.

Located on Deck 6, at the forward-most part of the vessel, the Bow Lounge provides the closest access to water level via the foredeck, making it the perfect spot for guests to spend some time watching for marine life. Within a few steps, guests can be outside, with a vantage point that is ideal to watch the ship’s course, spot wildlife, or take in the beautiful natural scenery.

The Bow Lounge introduces some technological enhancements, providing guests with a first for Seabourn with touch screens showing the ship’s plotted location, as well as navigational charts and scientific information used to help guide the ship on its journey. Large screens project live footage from mounted cameras outside the ship, and from a drone when conditions permit, while the touch screen monitors invite guests to explore on their own with a live map, weather information, and notes detailing upcoming expeditions. Expedition Team members will be available within the Lounge throughout the day to interact with guests, answer questions, provide interpretation and aid in spotting wildlife.

The space provides direct access to the Bow Sprit on Deck 6 forward (when conditions permit) to give guests the sensation of standing in front of the ship and views of waves parting and ice sloughing off the bow at the waterline.

*Only on Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit

Constellation Lounge

Featuring stunning 270-degree views the Constellation Lounge offers guests a breathtaking perspective on the remote destinations in the world.

The Constellation Lounge is the highest indoor viewing point on each ship. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls wrap around the space, offering guests stunning 270-degree, outward-facing views as far as their eyes can see, heightening their expeditionary spirit while bringing them closer to wildlife and wonders at sea and in port.

In addition, the expedition team will be in the lounge regularly to help identify points of interest, wildlife and geological wonders. Imagine glimpsing killer whales, waddling penguins, and sea lions in Antarctica; sleepy-eyed sloths, sprightly monkeys, and colorful parrots in the rainforests of South and Central America; and icebergs bobbing in the seas and waterfalls rushing over cliffs in the far reaches of the Arctic and Northern Europe – all from the comfort of the Constellation Lounge.

The Constellation Lounge offers Seabourn’s popular Early Morning Riser continental breakfast, while afternoons features the line’s popular and recently enhanced Afternoon Tea service. Steeped in the tradition of proper English tea service, yet as fresh and memorable as a newly brewed pot, the elegant daily tea service incorporates the finest luxury tea brand TWG Tea. As the sun dips and the night sky lights up, live piano entertainment delights guests as cocktails and tapas are served both before and after dinner.

Summertime Norwegian Fjords & Folklore

View of Nordfjord, Norway

Your cruise at a glance

Hand-crafted highlights.

This six-night British Bank Holiday sailing will guide you through some of Norway's most stunning fjordland scenery. Smaller-sized Balmoral will traverse a series of majestic fjords including Langsfjord & Eresfjord, Nordfjord, Innvkfjord and Hjørundfjorden. Be sure to be on deck as these serene waters carve their way through rugged terrain flanked by towering mountains and sheer cliff faces - such as the iconic Trollveggen - whose sheer vastness commands attention. Embrace the Norwegian philosophy of outdoor living and get closer to the fjords via boat or kayak. Or perhaps hike the verdant valleys and mountainous scenery for unparalleled views.

Nordfjord, Norway

Exploring the fjord landscapes

Your Norwegian Fjords cruise aboard Balmoral will enable you to delve into the core of our homeland, and as you sail along size-restricted fjords, only accessible by smaller cruise ships, you'll have the chance to experience their beauty firsthand. As Balmoral navigates along Langsfjord and Eresfjord, nestled between majestic peaks and lush green landscapes, you'll witness cascading waterfalls and tiny fjord-side villages, while the beautiful town of Olden, framed by aqua waters and meadows, is home to Briksdal Glacier, its icy expanse glistening in the summer sun. Trollveggen, Europe's tallest, vertically overhanging rockface, stands guard as a testament to Mother Nature's grandeur. You'll also have the chance to marvel at the serene waters and sights of Nordfjord and Innvikfjord from the decks of Balmoral . 

RIB tour in the Norwegian Fjords

Immerse yourself in Friluftsliv

The Norwegian concept of Friluftsliv means to spend time outdoors, whatever the weather, participating in activities that will give you a sense of well-being. This Balmoral cruise offers a multitude of opportunities in which to experience Friluftsliv, such as kayaking on the serene waters of Nordfjord, surrounded by steep mountains and tumbling waterfalls, or exploring Olden by e-Bike with a friendly local guide. Also in Olden, take the opportunity to enjoy a thrilling RIB boat ride to catch your own crayfish, or enjoy bird-watching on a more sedate boat cruise from Alesund to go in search of puffins, kittiwakes and razorbills. Alesund is also home to Mount Aksla, where the views from the peak over the Sunnmøre Alps are breath-taking. You'll be joined on this cruise by Norwegian Kjersti Farrier, who will speak about the way of life in Norway.

Trollstigen, Norway

Modern engineering and ancient landscapes

Norwegians had to be inventive when it came to scaling the landscapes of the fjords, and so the Troll's Path - Trollstigen - was devised. This marvel of road engineering cuts a winding path between Åndalsnes and Valldal, through unforgiving mountains with hairpin bends and stunning views over sheer steep cliffs. Meanwhile, take the Rauma Railway through scenic valleys and mountains, such as the Trollveggen cliff and the Romsdalen valley, or enjoy a ride on the Loen Skylift in Olden to the peak of Mount Hoven, where you'll discover perfect hiking trails and breathtaking panoramic views of the Nordfjord countryside, before journeying on to the emerald green waters of Lovatnet Lake.

The port town of Rosyth is located in Fife, Scotland, and is centred on the iconic Rosyth Castle. Up until the 20th century, this castle was surrounded by water and much of what exists of the town today has been built on reclaimed land. It is situated just across the Forth Road Bridge from the city of Edinburgh, which is well worth spending a day or two exploring on its own.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines both operates cruises from Rosyth, with itineraries taking passengers into Northern Europe, the Norwegian fjords, and the Arctic Circle. Situated just north of Edinburgh, it is an ideal option for holidaymakers from central Scotland and northern England.

Rosyth is easily accessible via road and is located just 12 miles north of the Scottish capital. The two settlements are also well-connected via twice-hourly direct rail services. If you are planning on spending a night or two in Edinburgh prior to or after your cruise, your best option may be to fly into Edinburgh Airport, which is located just outside the city centre.
