Balmoral, 14 Night In Search of the Northern Lights at Christmas ex Southampton, England Return
This adventure into the Arctic wilderness offers the chance to spot the awe-inspiring Northern Lights during the festive season. After celebrating Christmas Day on board with everything taken care of, experience the maritime tradition of crossing the Arctic Circle, making your Boxing Day even more special. Balmoral’s smaller size comes to the fore as we take you on a scenic shortcut through the Tjeldsundet Strait – out of reach to larger ships. Overnight stays in Tromsø and Alta will allow ample time to search for the lights, take a husky sledding ride, or connect with the local Sámi culture. Celebrate New Year’s Eve in Trondheim before rounding off your journey with a day in Ålesund.
