View Cruise DealWhen the Norwegian government decided to create a connection between the north and the south, Richard With and his friend Anders Holthe took on the challenge of thoroughly mapping the seas along the coastline. In 1893, Captain Richard With’s steamer DS Vesteraalen was brought into regular service along the coast of Norway. This was the beginning of Hurtigruten. Over 120 years later, they are still a key part of Norwegian life.
Known as the ‘greenest fleet in the world,’ Hurtigruten Coastal Express leads the way with innovative technology for green and clean exploration. With the introduction of hybrid-powered ships, biodegradable hydraulic oils and lubricants as well as the promise to ban single-use plastics, Hurtigruten Coastal Express’ future is green.
Each ship is designed to allow you to fully appreciate the spectacular scenery through which they sail. Comfortable cabins, panoramic lounges and a friendly atmosphere comprise the core of the onboard experience. Informality is key leaving you free to relax and enjoy the landscapes at will, whilst the modest size of the ships encourages passengers to interact with like-minded, interesting people.
Hurtigruten Coastal Express boasts four cabin categories; Polar Inside, Polar Outside, Arctic Superior and Expedition Suite. Polar Inside cabins feature separate beds (one of which converts into a sofa) and a bathroom with a shower. Polar Outside cabins offer the same amenities as Polar Inside cabins while also benefitting from a picture window and a flat-screen television. Relaxation and comfort are the hallmarks of Hurtigruten Coastal Express’ Arctic Superior cabins. The cabins all have bathrooms with a shower and are equipped with tea and coffee-making facilities and a television. The Expedition Suites are the most luxurious cabins onboard. These cabins feature seating areas with a television, a bathroom with a shower and an exciting welcome gift.
