    Bergen, Norway
    • Bergen, Norway
    Your adventure begins in the charming city of Bergen. Surrounded by seven mountains and the sea, Norway's old capital is also one of its most picturesque cities. If you have time before boarding the ship, why not stroll through the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Bryggen district, with its colorful wooden wharfs dating back to the 18th century. Across from Bryggen, you'll find the city's famous fish market. You can even take the funicular railway to the top of Mount Floyen for a refreshing hike and amazing views of the city, the mountains, and sea beyond. ...

    Lerwick, United Kingdom
    • Lerwick, United Kingdom
    Lerwick, the capital, is a friendly, Victorian-influenced fishing town set in beautiful scenery. Navigate the narrow lanes on foot to discover little shops selling local whiskies, woolen sweaters, and fudge. By the old waterfront, you'll find the Shetland Museum, showcasing Pictish carvings and lace shawls. Nearby you can see Fort Charlotte and the regal-looking town hall. Keep your binoculars handy to scan for grey and common seals along Lerwick's beaches, as well as local birdlife such as red-throated divers, redshanks, and curlews. ...

    Torshavn, Faroe Islands
    • Torshavn, Faroe Islands
    Torshavn is located on Streymoy, the largest of the Faroe Islands. Founded by Norsemen in the 10th century, Torshavn - Thor's Harbour - is one of Northern Europe's oldest capitals. Wander through the cobbled alleyways and delight in the colorful, turf-roofed houses found here. In the local museums, you can learn about the city's origins and the flora, fauna, and geology of the Faroe Islands. About half a mile out of town, the Svartafoss waterfall tumbles over mossy rocks. And as you walk along the seafront, look out for eider ducks and the distinctive Faroese starling with its beige-tipped wings. ...

    Elduvik, Denmark
    • Elduvik, Denmark
    Today, we'll stop to explore the tiny village of Elduvik, with just 23 inhabitants. Set in the Funningsfjordur inlet in the Faroe Islands, Elduvik is split in two by the river Stora. While small, Elduvik comes complete with a school, church, dock, and pier. From the pier, enjoy the view across the sparkling waters to the nearby island of Kalsoy - it's astonishingly peaceful here. As you walk through the village's charming streets, listen for the songs of seabirds, bleating sheep, and waves coming to shore from the fjord. You'll notice that the roofs of many houses are built in the traditional Icelandic style: covered in grass instead of slate, offering much-needed insulation and protection against the weather. ...

    Bakkagerdi, Iceland
    • Bakkagerdi, Iceland
    Your Iceland cruise continues to Bakkagerdi, a tiny, remote settlement. According to folklore, Bakkagerdi is inhabited by a large population of local land spirits or elves, known as huldufolk, meaning 'hidden people'. Walk around town to explore this magical place. The area around Bakkagerdi is a popular hiking area. You can join the Expedition Team to walk through lush, green valleys and gorgeous scenery among colorful rhyolite rocks. The coastal cliffs are home to fulmars, kittiwakes, eiders, and puffins. We may also visit the Atlantic puffin colony on Hafnarholmi - a true gem for nature lovers and wildlife photographers. ...

    Husavik, Iceland
    • Husavik, Iceland
    Today you'll discover Husavik, a fascinating small town that's one of the best places in the world from which to see whales. Husavik looks out over Skjalfandi bay, which enjoys visits from humpback and minke whales, white-beaked dolphin, harbor porpoise, and even the elusive blue whale. If you're lucky, you might see one or more of these giants at sea. Learn more about them at Husavik's Whale Museum. The town's Exploration Museum has a section dedicated to space. As Husavik's geology resembles lunar rocks, NASA sent astronauts from their Apollo space missions to train here. You can also enjoy the geothermal waters at Geosea, which overlooks Skjalfandi bay, and refresh with a beer at the local microbrewery. ...

It's also known as a great place to spot humpbacks and minke whales, as well as white-beaked dolphins and harbor porpoises. Iceland's 'Northern Capital', Akureyri, sits at the fjord base. Here, you can enjoy the oasis of a botanical garden, and visit top-notch eateries and museums. A little further afield, you can witness the picturesque Godafoss waterfall, where turquoise waters pound against black rocks.

    Jan Mayen, Norway
    • Jan Mayen, Norway
    Jan Mayen has no permanent residents and visits to the island are rare. In fact, we're one of the few to attempt landings here. If conditions allow, you'll be setting foot in one of Earth's most remote places. Jan Mayen's surreal, moss- and lichen-streaked landscape is dominated by the Beerenberg volcanic cone. It's the world's northernmost active volcano and last erupted in 1985. You won't see land mammals here, but the island is designated an Important Bird Area, supporting large populations of northern fulmars, Brunnich's guillemots, and little auks. Look out for abundant marine life in the surrounding waters too, including whales and seals. ...

Over the next three days, you'll explore some of the world's most dramatic fjords, listening for the creaks of glaciers as they calve icebergs into the sea. Delight in the rare chance to seek the region's apex predator, the magnificent polar bear, in its natural environment following the sea-ice edge hunting for seals.
