Norwegian Fjords – Flåm & Bergen
About this cruise
This one leaves Southampton on July 24, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Flåm, Ålesund, Bergen and Zeebrugge at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. From Bergen's coloured waterfront to the fjords beyond, this is Scandinavia doing what it does best. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Celebrity Apex takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The sweet spot for most travellers: you get to know the ship, see the ports, and come home before the laundry piles up. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Southampton has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
