Welcome to the Norwegian Fjords, one of the most stunning natural wonders of the world! As the temperatures rise and the days grow longer, there's no better time set sail to explore this breath-taking destination on a summertime accessible cruise holiday.
Holiday Overview
Imagine sailing through the tranquil waters of the fjords, surrounded by towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, and picturesque villages nestled along the shoreline. You'll have the opportunity to experience the region's unique culture, fascinating traditions, and sample delicious local cuisine. If you're searching for an unforgettable experience to make the most of the summer, our Norwegian Fjords accessible cruise holiday is the perfect way to unwind and explore. So sit back, relax, and set sail for the spectacular.
Cruising with Fred Olsen, you can enjoy the luxuries of a smaller ship, which means fewer guests, a serene atmosphere, and a more personalised and intimate experience. You'll also be able to reach ports and destinations that larger ships cannot - cruise deeper into the fjords for incredible views and untouched wonders!
Along with all the five-star experiences on board, you'll also see the very best of the this unique glacial landscape. See the picturesque towns of Olden, Nordfjord and Hornelen .
Throughout your trip, you’ll be accompanied by the Limitless Team, who will provide outstanding care support and assistance as and when you require it. On the ship, your cabin is fully accessible, as are the vast majority of Ms Balmoral's facilities. With several restaurants, swimming pools, entertainment venues, a steam room and sauna, there's no better way to enjoy luxury at sea.
*At some anchor ports, a small boat or ‘tender’ will be used to transport guests to shore. At such locations we will be making the most of the brilliant entertainment onboard, and enjoying the sights from the deck. We will always try to keep you informed of these anchor port locations and where accessibility may be restricted. Unfortunately, port changes can happen due to a number of reasons while at sea, in which case Limitless Travel cannot be held accountable.
