Ocean Discovery – Reykjavik, Isafjord & Akureyri

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 10 nights from Reykjavik on July 6, 2028, visiting Isafjordur, Akureyri and Ålesund, with additional stops along the Northern Europe & Scandinavia. You finish in Southampton. 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. The route threads through 5 countries along the Northern Europe & Scandinavia coast: Iceland, Norway, Netherlands, Belgium and United Kingdom. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, There are 18 restaurants on Norwegian Getaway, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 10 nights. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
