YouTube Video Description

Following Havila Episode 1 of our cruise in November 2024, this episode is a review of the Havila Pollux. Given that all four Havila ships which ply the Norwegian Coastal Express route are identical, this episode is effectively a review of all four ships. Andrew and Leonie discuss the cabin, the food and beverage offer, the ship itself and some sustainability initiatives. Have a look at what they thought. * Andrew and Leonie were guests of Havila on this cruise but their opinions are their own. #hurtigruten #havila #cruisetips #cruisetravel #havilapollux #havilacastor #havilacapella #havilapolaris #cruiseship #cruisetour #cruiseshipreview #cruiseshiptour #destinationcruise #cruiseadventure #cruiseadventures #cruiseaddict #cruiseaholic #cruisetips #travelguides #luxurytravel #cruisingstyle #cruiselover #cruise #oceantravel #exploringnorway #cruisetravel #travelenthusiast #travel #cruising #norway #norwegian #norwegiancruises #arctic #visitnorway @HavilavoyagesYT
