12 days, round-trip Northern Europe Fjords from Hamburg

About this cruise

12 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Hamburg on July 10, 2026 and the route takes you through Seydisfjordur, Akureyri, Isafjordur, Reykjavik, Kirkwall and Invergordon at a pace where there's never any need to rush. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 6 port calls start. Geysers, glaciers, puffin colonies. Iceland is volcanic and doesn't try to hide it. Reykjavik stands out. It's The world's northernmost capital, startlingly cool. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 113,216 gross tons, Costa Favolosa is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
