HURTIGRUTEN

The original Norwegian coastal voyage sailing between Bergen and Kirkenes since 1893.

A legendary journey along Norway’s coastline for more than 130 years

Since 1893, Hurtigruten has connected communities along Norway’s coast, sailing the iconic route between Bergen and Kirkenes. Today, the company operates a modern fleet that continues this tradition while offering travelers an authentic way to experience fjords, mountains, and coastal towns across 34 ports. Hurtigruten sails year-round and offers two distinct experiences: the classic Original Coastal Express voyages and the premium Signature series - all-inclusive journeys featuring destinations such as Svalbard in summer and the North Cape in winter.


Whether traveling under the Midnight Sun or witnessing the Northern Lights, guests encounter rare wildlife, dramatic landscapes, and the rhythm of daily life along the coast. Hurtigruten is also a pioneer in sustainable travel, operating battery-hybrid ships and prioritizing responsible operations. Through the Sea-Zero initiative, the company aims to launch the world’s first emission-free cruise ship by 2030, redefining the future of coastal exploration.
