Nordic Fjords & Iceland – Bergen & Reykjavik

About this cruise

A 11-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Southampton on July 12, 2026 and visits Leith (Edinburgh), Aberdeen and Bergen, with additional stops along the Iceland. You wind up in Reykjavik, so it's worth planning a night or two there. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 3 borders through the Iceland: United Kingdom, Norway and Iceland. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Leith (Edinburgh) stands out. It's Edinburgh's dockside neighbourhood of character. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Norwegian Star takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. 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. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
