Holiday Overview

One of the world's most unique experiences: the Northern Lights, the mysterious dancing arcs, ripples and rays of light that cast an eerie glow across the Arctic sky. This Northern Lights voyage travels north along Norway’s dramatic coastline and cuts deep into the fjords and to the fringes of the Arctic Circle in search of the mysterious aurora borealis.

Your first port is Andalsnes, Norway. People have been cruising to Andalsnes for more than 120 years because of its stunning location. For, an Alpine town as well as a cruise port, Andalsnes nestles where the towering Romsdal Alps meet the northern end of the sparkling Romsdalfjord.

Enjoy overnight port stays in Honningsvagg, Alta & Tromso on your 16 night search for the Aurora Borealis on the luxurious P&O Aurora ship.
