Creator's Key Takeaways

Not only do some of these mistakes cause people to not get as much enjoyment out of their cruise, but some of these mistakes can also prove to be really quite expensive, too.

I've taken winter cruises to Norway that have delivered more mild and more predictable weather than summer cruises to Norway.

If you're going to the fjords or Arctic Norway in particular, you're going to find RIB tours on a lot of your cruise port options. They are just an absolutely incredible way to see a fjord.

I've seen some places where I can be paying up to 15 pounds, which I guess would be about 18 or 19 US dollars, for a coffee and a cake.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book excursions early to avoid missing popular tours.
βœ“Pack for all weathers, including rain gear, as summer can be torrential.
βœ“Consider cruising in the shoulder season (May or September) for better prices and fewer crowds.
βœ“Bring a travel card instead of large amounts of Norwegian Krona cash.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Luggage restrictions β€” Cruise luggage rules are more relaxed than airlines; you can often take multiple cases if you can carry them.
Sea conditions/motion sickness β€” Don't worry too much, but pack motion sickness medication or visit the ship's medical center for a shot.
Daylight levels β€” Understand the correlation between season and light; book summer for midnight sun and winter for northern lights.
