Signature voyages

Signature voyages embody the essence of everything we've learned from sailing Norway and Svalbard for generations. Unhurried and deeply meaningful, they immerse you in our most cherished places, lingering in handpicked ports where working harbors greet us as old friends and villages open their doors just for us.    On board our comfortable small ships, there are no casinos or cabarets. Just expert-led talks, on-deck tastings and all-inclusive food and drink served with a story. This is what more than 130 years of sailing wisdom looks like today.

Learn more about Signature voyages

Signature voyages are all-inclusive. Your fare covers:

• Breakfast, lunch, dinner and an afternoon snack in multiple restaurants, as part of our award-winning Norway's Coastal Kitchen concept

• A generous drinks package, including select beers, wine, spirits and soft drinks

• Expert-led talks, on-deck tastings and an enhanced onboard activities program

• All gratuities

• For Suite guests: all meals at our fine-dining restaurant, unlimited select cocktails, daily minibar refills and onboard credit

Flights, transfers and shore excursions are available to book at an additional cost.

Shore excursions are not included in your fare but are available to book in advance online or on board. Because Signature itineraries spend longer in each port – often several hours – you have far more time ashore to explore independently or join a guided excursion.
