Ship: Star Legend

Norway's Famous Fjords
Windstar Cruises

More than a thousand fjords lace the west  coast of Norway, carved by glaciers and filled by the Norwegian Sea. One of the world’s natural wonders, Geirangerfjord and Signefjord are stunning from every angle—from the top of Lysefjord’s anvil-shaped Pulpit Rock, from the Flam Railway as it winds through the mountains and past waterfalls high above Aurlandsfjord, and from the fjords themselves as you cruise on Star Breeze. Tiny hill farms, half-timbered houses, and stave churches pass by, leading the way to the Art Nouveau architecture of Alesund, the colorful Hanseatic pier in Bergen, and sights too beautiful to imagine.

Detailed Itinerary

Day-by-day description of your cruise and cruise activities.

Day 1 - July 10, 2025

Copenhagen

This historic city of palaces, canals, and copper spires casts a sense of enchantment upon all who walk its cobbled streets. Little wonder that Copenhagen&rsquo;s favorite son, Hans Christian Andersen, was inspired to write some of the world&rsquo;s most beloved fairy tales here. Stroll the 17<sup>th</sup> century Nyhavn waterfront where Andersen once lived, complete with colorful row houses and historic tall ships. Enjoy world-class shopping on Strøget, the world&#39;s longest pedestrian street. Or find your amusement at world-famous Tivoli Gardens where tree-lined pathways lead to theaters, open air stages, restaurants, cafes, and over 80 attractions.

Day 2 - July 11, 2025

Aalborg, Denmark

Aalborg is found in the Jutland region of Denmark on the shores of Limfjord. This university city is full of Viking history, 21st century architecture and a quaint medieval center. This is a small port that only allows one cruise ship at a time. Visit Skanse Park with its stunning view of the city and the fjord. Grab a drink at Jomfru Ane Gade, a charming street packed with locals frequenting the bars and restaurants there.

Day 3 - July 12, 2025

Kristiansand

<div>Until recently, this beautiful hamlet was Norway&rsquo;s secret, keeping its picturesque white-painted houses and sheltered coves tucked away and quietly hidden. It is best discovered by small ship, giving you access to the town with its lush green forests and majestic inlets.&nbsp;</div>

Day 4 - July 13, 2025

Stavanger

Here&rsquo;s a day for exploration. Your ship will dock in the very city center near the oldest part of town. A short stroll will take you to Stavanger Cathedral, the best preserved medieval cathedral in Norway, the city center and cobblestone pedestrian streets. Just an hour&rsquo;s boat trip away is the 2,000-foot-high Pulpit Rock with its magnificent views of the lovely Lysefjord.

Day 5 - July 14, 2025

Flam

A tiny town of only 500 residents, yet people have been traveling here from all over since the end of the 19th century. You&rsquo;ll understand why when you arrive. Take one of the world&rsquo;s most breathtaking railroad journeys up the mountain to gasp at the fjord below.

Day 6 - July 15, 2025

Olden

The pleasant small village of Olden is located at the inner end of the 66-mile long Nordfjord, the sixth longest fjord in Norway.&nbsp;&nbsp; Long known for tourism and industry, it is now also famous for contemporary design.&nbsp; With fewer than 500 inhabitants Olden is an ideal destination for people who enjoy spending time in the great outdoors, and is the gateway to Jostedal, the largest glacier on the European mainland. If you can, find a bottle of Olden Mineral Water, as close as you will get to a glacier on tap.

Day 7 - July 16, 2025

Geiranger

Visit tiny goat villages to sample homemade cheese. Take a RIB boat out on the spectacular Geirangerfjord, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Buy yourself a mango ice cream cone and absorb all the beauty around you.

Geirangerfjord

Cruise up 9-mile-long Geirangerfjord, one of the most famous fjords of Norway.&nbsp; This UNESCO site has several impressive waterfalls and your ship will cruise by the most famous waterfall of the fjord &ndash; the characteristic Seven Sisters Waterfall.

Colorful Bryggen, Bergen&rsquo;s Hanseatic quay and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is so delightful you may find it difficult to explore further. But do. Watch the Huldras (forest nymphs) dance at Kjosfossen Waterfall, wander the narrow smau between the old buildings climbing the hillside.
