Embark on an incredible, northbound Havila Voyage from Bergen to Tromsø. Excellent for solo travellers, you'll encounter some of the world’s most beautiful fjords, crossing the Arctic Circle and sailing around the North Cape plateau. While you're at the northernmost point of Europe, you're likely to witness the striking aurora light up the sky.
Enjoy a night in the vibrant Bergen, where you can explore the picturesque Bryggan and marvel at its iconic tilted houses and concealed maze of wooden walkways. Additionally, you'll stay in Tromsø, making for a truly unforgettable Norwegian adventure.
To avoid disappointment, we advise you to pre-book all Havila excursions and activities. For further information, please speak to a Norway Travel Specialist.
Our solo traveller holidays are thoughtfully designed with your comfort and ease in mind. We carefully select hotels that cater to solo guests, ensuring a welcoming and secure atmosphere. Private transfers are arranged upon arrival, so you’re always met by someone when arriving in a new place. To help you get to know your destination, we include group tours where you can meet fellow travellers and explore together.
Fly from the UK to Bergen and take a taxi transfer to the city centre where you'll spend the first night of your Norwegian adventure. The remainder of the day is at leisure.
