Helsinki, Finland's vibrant seaside capital, is a city of intriguing contrasts. Modern architectural elegance intermingles with historical richness, evident in its neoclassical buildings and contemporary designs.



Kirkenes is located in the extreme northeastern part of Norway on the Bøkfjord, a branch of the Varangerfjord, near the Russian border. We're about 400 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle and actually as far east as St. Petersburg. Most of the approximately 7,000 inhabitants are of Norwegian background, while a minority is Sami. Others originate from Finland and some 500 immigrants have recently arrived from Russia.

Finnsnes is a small town located on the mainland in the municipality of Lenvik. Every summer, the community prepares for the one-week summer festival, aiming to put Finnsnes on the map. The central park offers the rare attraction of a natural lake within it. Fishing and agriculture is still important, and fish farming is of increasing economic importance. Several small boroughs surround Finnsnes, forming one large urban area. It is an important hub for transportation both on land and sea. Tromsø and Harstad can be reached within a little more than an hour by speedboat.

Situated on a beautiful stretch of coastline in Northern Norway, Bodø offers a truly remarkable experience.

Named after the natural wonder of the Arctic winter sky, MS Polarlys takes her name from the Norwegian word for ‘polar light’, which is a fitting tribute to the Northern Lights she was designed to help you discover. Since joining the Hurtigruten fleet in 1996, she has become a firm favourite on Norway’s iconic coastal route. Refurbished in 2016, MS Polarlys boasts a modern, Arctic-inspired interior that captures the essence of the landscape she sails through. Life on board offers a warm and welcoming retreat, featuring three unique restaurants that serve dishes made with fresh, local produce, a cosy bakery and ice cream bar, a sauna and fitness room, and two inviting hot tubs, perfect for relaxing after a day of scenic adventure.
What’s onboard: 224 guest staterooms, two activities, two speciality restaurants, two complimentary restaurants, one bar and lounge, four relaxation and fitness venues and seven essential venues.
Yes, Wi–Fi is available onboard for a small fee, unless already included in your Select or Platinum fare.
Specific diets can be catered for if requested in good time. Passengers on strict diets may find that there is limited choice. A 3-course vegan menu is available in the evenings on voyages of 12 days.
It is not common practice to tip on Hurtigruten Coastal Express ships. If you feel that crew members should be rewarded for providing exceptional service, tip boxes are placed in the restaurant together with envelopes.

Norwegian Kroner is the onboard currency.
There is no official dress code onboard but some guests choose to change to casual wear for dinner. The weather in Norway can vary during the course of each voyage (or even during the day) so we recommend reading our climate zone packing guide to ensure you’re ready for every possibility.
Hurtigruten Coastal Express recommends pre-booking shore excursions. This can be done up to 4 weeks prior to departure (2 weeks if paid by credit card) at the rates presented.
