Sailing holiday Norway – Geirangerfjord

This sailing trip goes deep into the Geirangerfjord, Unesco World Heritage Site with rugged, snow-capped peaks and spectacular waterfalls such as the ‘syv søstrene’ (the Seven Sisters). A pristine and varied landscape with steep and forested mountain slopes and deep fjords were created during the ice age. In Geiranger, we stay for a day of hiking and sightseeing.

This sailing holiday starts and ends in Ålesund, one of Norway’s most unique towns due to its atmospheric Art Nouveau-style architecture, newly rebuilt after an all-destructive fire in 1904, making this town unique in Norway. From the top in the city park Aksla, you have breathtaking views of the town, the mountains and the sea. A climb of 418 steps, but at the top sits a café with panoramic views and, among other things, delicious Donuts.

The daily distances on this sailing holiday are between 16 and 40 nautical miles. The above schedule depends on weather, wind and tide, we will deviate from it if necessary.

Category C/F: Relaxed sailing holiday with shorter day distances and plenty of time for sightseeing. Sailing holiday suitable for small children too.

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. Shared cabins are normally divided by gender. Only on the Belle Amie and Seatrips Yachts do they sometimes have mixed cabins.

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
