Fjord & Fire Crossing – Reykjavik, Skagen & Edinburgh

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 19-night sailing leaves Copenhagen on May 20, 2028 and visits Skagen, Stavanger and Andalsnes, with additional stops along the Northern Europe & Scandinavia. Last stop: Southampton. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 13 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 5 countries along the Northern Europe & Scandinavia coast: Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Faroe Islands and United Kingdom. Of the stops, Leith (Edinburgh) tends to be the one people talk about: Edinburgh's dockside neighbourhood of character. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Caribbean Princess has 13 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Copenhagen itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And May is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
