Glacial Fjordward – Skjolden & Ålesund

About this cruise

The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 6 nights from Bremerhaven on July 19, 2026, visiting Skjolden, Nordfjordeid and Ålesund. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 3 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Midnight sun, Viking history, and landscapes that look photoshopped but aren't. Ålesund stands out. It's Art Nouveau architecture on a Norwegian fjord. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Mein Schiff 3 takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All in all, it's a solid trip.
