A Photography Adventure - September 2026

Your Journey, Your Adventure 

Are you a photography enthusiast with a passion for breath-taking landscapes, dramatic coastlines, and the magic of northern light? 

This September 2026, join our exclusive photography group as we set sail with Hurtigruten, the legendary Norwegian cruise line, to capture the very best of Norway’s iconic fjords.

Why Hurtigruten for Fjord Photography?

Hurtigruten’s classic Bergen–Kirkenes–Bergen voyage is renowned as the “world’s most beautiful sea voyage.” Unlike larger cruise ships, Hurtigruten’s smaller vessels can navigate narrow, winding fjords, bringing you closer to the heart of Norway’s wild beauty. You’ll have front-row seats to UNESCO-listed fjords like Geirangerfjord and Trollfjord (seasonal), as well as hidden gems and charming coastal villages.

The Ideal Itinerary for Fjord Lovers

For photographers, the Bergen–Kirkenes–Bergen roundtrip is the ultimate choice. Over 12 days, you’ll traverse nearly the entire Norwegian coast, with daily stops at picturesque ports and plenty of time to explore ashore. Key highlights include:

• Geirangerfjord (summer) and Hjørundfjord (autumn): Towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and mirror-like waters.

• Trollfjord: A narrow, dramatic fjord only accessible to smaller ships.

• Lofoten Islands: Rugged peaks, fishing villages, and golden light.

• Arctic Circle Crossing: Experience the changing light and landscapes as you head north.

Beyond the scenery, Hurtigruten offers exceptional value: comfortable cabins with panoramic views, locally inspired gourmet meals, and access to remote locations few travelers experience. This trip is designed to maximize your creative potential while immersing you in one of the world’s most photogenic regions.

Fast Facts

1. Climate: Norway has a much milder climate than other parts of the world at the same latitude because of the Gulf Stream that carries four to five million tons of tropical water per second. There is climate variation within the country, with the warmest areas in summer are in the south and south east and the coldest in the north. Western Norway has a marine climate with cool summers and mild winters. Average temperature in June in Bergen is 50-63 °F, 45-55 °F, while summer temperatures reach into both the 70s and even the 80s.

2. Coastline: Norway has been inhabited for 9,000 years, and today the majority of Norwegians live along the coast. The Norwegian coast is about 16,000 miles long.

3. Salmon: The Japanese did not use salmon in sushi until it was suggested by a Norwegian delegation in 1980's. Seafood is one of Norway’s major exports.

4. The invention of skiing: Modern and ancient skiing were invented in Norway, and skiing is dominated by the Norwegians during the Winter Olympics. The oldest preserved ski found is 2,300 years old. The words 'ski' and 'slalom' originated in Norway.
