Modern and lively, this coastal town bustles with waterfront restaurants, heritage charm, bars, cinemas and offers great access to other spots in the South of England. Sit back and drift through heavenly countryside to ancient Stonehenge, see if the King is at home in Windsor, learn secrets from the Bombay Sapphire gin distillery or slip up to London for some rich British culture. Then enjoy a cup of tea as ... ### Day 2: Zeebrugge (Bruges), Belgium **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 03:00 PM Fill your senses with wonderful Flemish flavour in UNESCO-praised Bruges. Relax amongst tree-lined canals and cobbled pathways to learn secrets of the city’s world-famous chocolate. Partake in beer tasting, beer blending and beer sinking. Explore the medieval streets of the old town for classic cathedrals, gabled facades and unique Art Deco taverns. Head out to the pretty countryside, ride along canals and shop for comic books, lace and yet more chocolate. And as you slowly savour the taste of... ### Day 3: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 4: Flam, Norway **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM Nested deep between towering mountains are narrow valleys, a mile-deep fjord and a little village called FlÃ¥m. Surrounded by breathtaking beauty, visit the Borgund Stave Church museum or board the astonishing FlÃ¥msbana train, often titled the world's most beautiful rail journey. Climb aboard and witness waterfalls, fjords and farms so remote you wonder how they got there. Fish, cycle or experience a RIB safari through the slender Nærøyfjord - part of the UNESCO world heritage - as you apprec... ### Day 5: Bergen, Norway **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM Lovingly known as the ‘heart of the fjords’, this city nestled between seven mountains has plenty to live up to.

Hike to Fløyen or mountain bike to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site at Bryggen, before w... ### Day 6: Nordfjord, Norway **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM Mother Nature excels on Norway’s wildest coast. Contrasting forms of extreme beauty: granite peaks laced with tumbling waterfalls that tower over silent fjords and beaches below. Nature is the entertainment, with walking poles, surfboards, kayaks and horses all adding to the adventure. Hike Europe’s highest cliff, scale Mount Hoven by the Sky Lift, drop into Viking history and soak cares away in Europe’s deepest lake where dips hit differently. It’s no wonder Norway scores high in the qu... ### Day 7: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 8: Copenhagen (København), Denmark **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Rejoice in one of the happiest and most vibrant capital cities in the world.
