After Ålesund, today was a scenic cruising day through the Geirangerfjord.

A Kaleidoscope of Dramatic Scenery

We sailed slowly through the 15-kilometer fjord, with ever-changing scenery like a kaleidoscope of dramatic natural beauty — cliffs, waterfalls, and everything in between.

The Seven Sisters and the Suitor

Among the highlights were the Seven Sisters and the Suitor, which face each other in unrequited love. The Seven Sisters are made up of seven separate streams tumbling down a sheer cliff.

Narration From the Ship

A naturalist on our ship narrated certain sights along the sail, which added to the experience. It felt so indulgent to sit on our private balcony and be treated to this amazing sight.

The Village of Hellesylt

Tucked into the fjord is the little town of Hellesylt.
