Hurtigruten, 8411 W. Oakland Park Blvd. Suite 201, Sunrise, FL 33351;

(Toll-Free): 1-866-552-0371

Travelers interested in specialty and exploration cruising along the spectacular Norwegian coast, Greenland, the Arctic's Spitsbergen, Antarctica and Europe should consider a Hurtigruten voyage. The coastline between Bergen and Kirkenes is over 1,490 miles long, and in the 19th century almost all of it was home to rich fishing grounds. However,  maritime maps were unreliable and there were only a few lighthouses, especially in the north. In 1893, Captain Richard With’s steamer, DS Vesteraalen, was brought into regular service along the coast of Norway, and Hurtigruten was established. He called this important connection ‘Hurtigruten’ (the fast route). 120 years later, they still carry freight and passengers. Today, as then, the Hurtigruten ships are a part of Norwegian coastal life. One of the fleet’s 11 ships departs Bergen daily, sailing to Kirkenes and back in 12 days at an average speed of 15 knots. For more information log on (www.hurtigruten.us).
