MS Richard With sailing through the scenic Raftsundet in northern Norway

We’ve spent over 130 years sailing Norway’s coastline – and we’re proud to offer the most flexible and immersive way to experience our home.

The history of Hurtigruten

For the generations of local Norwegians who live and work on the Norwegian coast, the words ‘hurtig ruten’ are as common as ‘fjord’, ‘fjell’, and ‘fisk’. Our ships are as part of Norwegian life as the fjords and mountains.

Sail with us and become a part of who we are: the spirit of Norway since 1893.

Food and drink on board

There’s a Norwegian expression we like to say after a good meal: ‘takk for maten’. It’s one you’ll want to remember. Our chefs take pride in our fjord-to-fork approach, using only the best ingredients found along the Norwegian coast.

Sustainability is our goal

The Norwegian coast is our home. It has provided for and nurtured us and our families for generations. We want to do everything we can to keep it a place of beauty and wonder.

Your onboard experience

Sailing the coast for as long as we have, we know it better than anyone. Our Expedition Team will be by your side to share stories and insights passed down through generations.
