MS Trollfjord

Flagship of our Signature voyages, MS Trollfjord takes its name from a small but spectacular fjord in the Vesterålen archipelago.

About the ship

Sailing both The Svalbard Line and The North Cape Line, MS Trollfjord is an homage both to Norwegian nature and our 130-year heritage sailing the Norwegian coast.

Locally sourced natural materials such as wood and stone feature prominently throughout the ship’s furnishings, reflecting the beauty of the fjords we sail through.

The style of décor is classic, timeless, and unique in our fleet. You’ll notice details and flourishes that evoke a sense of nostalgia, harking back to a golden era of exclusive small-ship sailing.
