Sensational photographic journey! I love this excursion to the Norwegian fjords filled with such scenic, stunning beauty. Moreover, I am extremely grateful to the captain and crew who made an important decision to skip some of our stops due to high winds.

Review summary

I cannot emphasize how much I appreciated Captain Teo's decision to cancel certain stops and made every effort to add different ports to our itinerary due to nature's challenges--high winds--that we encountered for several days. He is to be commended for his caring thoughts/actions and concern for our safety. I thoroughly enjoyed the cruise because every Norwegian city was absolutely stunning, and the fjords are spectacular. What a lovely way to view nature's beauty! I look forward to more Norwegian cruises in the future.

I love all the dance lessons and dancercise workouts and wish that they could extend the time from half hour to an hour.
