Stavanger, Norway
Today the ship drops anchor at the port of Stavanger in southwestern Norway – the gateway to the majestic Lysefjord and stunning vistas from Pulpit Rock. Meander through the cobbled streets lined with white-washed wooden houses and see artists at work in the old quarter. Visit the 12th-century Stavanger Cathedral and marvel at its vaulted ceiling and 13th-century Gothic chancel. Stop by the Norwegian Canning Museum to appreciate the town's heritage as the 'herring capital' of Norway, while the Norwegian Petroleum Museum showcases the oil industry with submersibles, an escape chute, and a large drill bit.

Olden, Norway > Cruise in Innvikfjorden, Norway > Cruise in Nordfjord, Norway
Olden sits at the eastern end of the serene Nordfjord, where the water divides into three arms beneath the Jostedalsbreen Glacier. The village is surrounded by green meadows with babbling brooks meandering between pretty houses. Visit the village centre to discover the 17th-century church and Singerheimen, which is the former home of the founder of the sewing machine company. Take to the Nordfjord for a rafting or kayaking adventure. Admire the green waters of Olden Lake and enjoy the cliffs and glaciers of the Oldedalen valley, which runs for 12 miles behind Olden. Walk among waterfalls and view the glistening blue ice at the impressive Briksdal Glacier — one of Norway's most visited sights.

Haugesund, Norway
Discover the city of Haugesund, at the point where the fjords flow into the North Sea in the southwest of Norway. Haugesund is famed as 'Norway's Birthplace' and boasts a proud Viking heritage, brought to life at Avaldsnes' Nordvegen History Centre on the nearby island of Karmoy. Visit Haraldshaugen national monument unveiled in 1872 to commemorate 1,000 years since the country's unification, delve into Haugesund's culture and history at Karmsund Folkemuseum, and stroll along Haraldsgata lined with traditional clapboard building filled with shops, cafes, and restaurants. This vibrant city also hosts a few cultural and musical festivals throughout the year, the most famous being the Norwegian International Film Festival and Sildajazz Festival. Akrafjord and the Langfoss Waterfall are also within easy reach.

Kristiansand, Norway
Situated in on the southern tip of Norway, Kristiansand and its old town Posebyen are home to traditional wooden houses and the neo-Gothic Kristiansand Cathedral. The Sørlandets Museum displays Norwegian art from 1800; take time to discover the Bystranda city beach and 17th-century Christiansholm Fortress rotunda on your adventure along the shorefront. Marvel at the spectacular lighthouse and art of Odderøya or attend an unforgettable concert or theatrical performance at Kilden Performing Arts Centre. Come together as a family to check out Kristiansand Zoo and Amusement Park to hop on themed rides, experience the thrilling waterpark, and get a glimpse at a range of exotic regional animals.
