We recently took an amazing Northern Lights cruise to Norway on the Caribbean Princess. We saw spectacular scenery, cities and Northern Lights. We were North of the Arctic circle for over 5 days and had an amazing trip. In this video we are going to discuss the itinerary, viewing of the Northern Lights and our learnings. And yes, we see the irony in taking a ship named the Caribbean Princess north of the Arctic Circle One this cruise we will visited: London, Alesund, Tromso, Trondheim, Lofoten Islands, and were north of the Arctic Circle for 5 days. We had success in viewing the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) 3 nights and were clouded out on several other nights. Norway is stunningly beautiful. The fall foliage was gorgeous and the best we have ever seen. Some in our group swam in the Arctic Ocean! Trondheim had a floating sauna and a swim in the Trondheim Fjord. In Tromso we say The Arctic Cathedral, Cable Car, Tromsø Museum, Polar Museum, Polaria which is an Arctic Experience Centre and Aquarium, Magic Ice Bar, Beer from the farthest north brewery, Tromso Cathedral, Sami Store, Glass Blowing gallery, Troll Museum Links to our other Norway Videos: https://youtu.be/dqrNxNVhui0 Links to Northern Lights Web Sites: https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/aurora-30-minute-forecast https://www.gi.alaska.edu/monitors/aurora-forecast https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/auroral-activity/aurora-forecast.html About Us: We have been to over 45 countries and over 70 cruise ship ports of call.
