Norwegian Cruise Companies

When setting out on booking a Norwegian cruise there are a wide range of options available such as which ship to choose, what type of cabin to select and which ports to visit but the very first decision that has to be made is which of the Norwegian cruise companies to sail with. There is a broad selection of choice when it comes to Norwegian cruise companies, each offering a differing service including different destinations, levels of luxury and cruise prices. It is important to make a wise choice from amongst the different Norwegian cruse companies as this can really affect the enjoyment of the cruise. Norwegian cruise companies include P&O Cruises, Saga Holidays and Fjord Travel, Norway.

P&O Cruises

P&O Cruises is a British-American owned cruise line based in Southampton, England and is one of the oldest cruise lines in the world. Today P&O Cruises is one of the most prominent cruise lines in the world with a fleet of seven ships and is one of the larger Norwegian cruise companies. P&O Cruises offer customers large ships with a great number of facilities and amenities. The cruise line caters for all age groups including families.

Saga Cruises

Saga Cruises offer a wide range of Norwegian cruises, with the majority centred on the Norwegian fjords and others on the Baltic Sea. Saga caters specifically to the over 50s age group, endeavouring to meet their needs and desires. Saga Cruises claim to pride themselves on their attention to detail and a high level of customer service. Saga Cruises current has a fleet of three ships which are much smaller than those operated by other Norwegian cruise companies. As a result they are more flexible and are able to visit some of the smaller fjords and ports which are inaccessible to the larger P&O ships.

Fjord Travel

Fjord Travel, Norway offers an extensive range of Norwegian cruises, largely centred on the west Norwegian coastline’s many fjords. The company offers many varied cruise packages in order to cater for every requirement, including a number of cruises which travel further north. Fjord Travel, Norway is a Norwegian tour operator which provides local expertise and a uniquely Norwegian experience. Fjord Travel offers customers a smaller, much more personal service than either P&O Cruises or Saga Cruises. The company operate much smaller vessels and tend to visit the smaller, less well known ports along the Norwegian coastline.

So whatever the customer’s requirements one of the Norwegian cruises companies will be able to fulfil those requirements. For customers who wish to travel on large cruise liners that are brimming with facilities and amenities that cater for all of the family then they may choose P&O Cruises. For customers over the age of 50 who want a cruise that is specifically catered to their requirements and prides itself on personal service then they may choose Saga Cruises. However, if customers would like an authentic Norwegian experience with smaller ships which are able to visit the smallest of the fjords and ports then they may choose Fjord Travel.
