E: 31/08 Win a seven-night no-fly Cunard cruise for two to the Norwegian fjords
Departing on 22 May 2022, the lucky winner and guest will get to explore Norway’s most picturesque fjords, with port visits included at Bergen and Stavanger.
The journey begins in Southampton, where you’ll board Cunard’s famous Queen Mary 2. Relax in your A2 Britannia Club Balcony Stateroom, where you’ll enjoy all those special Cunard touches, including your own stateroom steward, a nightly turn-down service and – of course – tea and coffee-making facilities.
Sailing overnight from Southampton, your first port stop will be Bergen, known as the ‘Gateway to the Fjords’. Here you’ll discover the city’s rich heritage as you visit the historic quays of Bryggen and the medieval wooden houses of the city’s waterfront. You can even take a funicular ride to the top of Mount Floyen, more than 1,000 ft above sea level for a bird’s eye view.
If Bergen has whetted your appetite for all things Norwegian, get ready to be wowed by the sheer grandeur of the fjords. First, you’ll enjoy a visit to the picturesque village of Olden, famous for giant waterfalls, and Kjenndalen Glacier with its green-tinged glow. Back on board, you’ll then spend the afternoon sailing through Innvikfjorden and Nordfjord, enjoying some of the most stunning scenery on earth.
Sailing north, the next day will bring you to the handsome city of Alesund, rebuilt in striking art nouveau style after a fire in 1904, and now resplendent against its impressive backdrop of snow-capped peaks.
Turning south again, your final stop will be the colourful port of Stavanger. The heart of a network of islands, connected by graceful bridges, this easily walkable city features streets of handsome 18th-century homes, now converted into artists’ studios and restaurants. Foodies should look out for local delicacies such as elk, reindeer and venison or try a lunchtime treat of smorbrod – an open sandwich topped with meat, fish or cheese.
Finally, after a truly memorable cruise, it’s time to turn for home, and your final day will be spent at sea as you travel overnight to Southampton.
