Day One

Make your way to Humberside for embarkation and this evening's sailing.

Day Two

Today is spent at sea, enjoying the atmosphere on board and getting to know 'Ocean Countess' and your fellow passengers.

Day Three

Hardangerfjord stretches over 100 kilometres into the Norwegian interior. Be on deck early this morning as 'Ocean Countess' heads into this stunning landscape where sheer, forested mountainsides plunge into the still waters. Our port here is tiny Ulvik, an oasis of tranquillity far removed from our hectic world. Enjoy an overland excursion through the almost unimaginably beautiful countryside, then re-join 'Ocean Countess' in Eidfjord, from where you can take an excursion to the towering Voringfossen waterfalls.

Day Four

As we negotiate a path through the narrow fingers of Sognefjord, the world's largest and deepest fjord, you'll be faced with a wonderfully difficult choice when it comes to optional shore excursions. Disembark at Vik and travel by land to the popular resort of Voss, or stay on board and cruise through the fjord's most remote corners to Flam, where you can board the world-famous Flamsbana Mountain Railway for an unforgettable six-mile journey to Myrdal.

Day Five

This morning 'Ocean Countess' docks in Bergen - an ancient Hanseatic city of cobbled streets and medieval houses, and birthplace of composer Edvard Grieg. Visit the vibrant harbour and fish market, stroll past the wooden warehouses of Bryggen and take the Floibanen funicular to the summit of 'Mount' Floyen.

Day Six

Today is spent at sea, no doubt swapping memories of with fellow passengers, and enjoying a last evening's entertainment on board.

Day Seven

'Ocean Countess' arrives back in Hull at the end of the memorable voyage, and you'll bid farewell and make your way home.
