🛳️ Princess Cruises
🚢 Regal Princess
📅 30 July – 6 August 2027 | 7 Nights
đź“Ť Roundtrip from Southampton

Sail Straight into the Heart of the Norwegian Fjords

There are few cruise itineraries as instantly recognisable — or as breathtaking — as the Norwegian Fjords. Towering mountains, glass-still waters, cascading waterfalls and colourful Nordic towns make this one of Europe’s most iconic cruising regions.

This 7-night Norwegian Fjords cruise aboard Regal Princess® sails directly from Southampton, meaning no flights, no luggage stress, and no airport queues. You simply step on board in the UK… and wake up surrounded by Norway’s most dramatic scenery.

For summer 2027, this particular sailing is already attracting attention thanks to:

  • Peak school-holiday timing
  • A family-friendly ship with superb facilities
  • Excellent value for couples and families
  • Flexible zero-deposit monthly payments

🗺️ The Itinerary: Fjords, Fjords… and More Fjords

This itinerary strikes the perfect balance between scenic cruising and charming Norwegian ports.

Southampton (UK) – embarkation
At Sea – full ship experience
Haugesund – Viking history & coastal scenery
Nordfjordeid – traditional fjord village life
Skjolden (Sognefjord) – sailing deep into Norway’s longest fjord
Stavanger – colourful old town & dramatic landscapes
At Sea – final relaxation day
Southampton – return to the UK

Skjolden is the real showstopper. Sailing into the Sognefjord, surrounded by sheer cliffs and waterfalls, is one of those “this is why we cruise” moments.
