Why Norway has the best cruise ports

 This is my second time cruising Norway and it just gets better each time. I can recommend all the ports I have visited. Below are the ports I have visited. All are easy walking towns.

Oslo 

Lovely harbour. Get the one day tourist card for museums and public transport. Worth the money. Saw four museums and shopping was good. The castle is right where you get off the ship.

Bergen 

Great fish market. Take the vehicular up the mountain. Views are great and go early. Bought the museum pass. Worth the money.

Flamm

Been there twice . Everyone takes the train the first time. I thought it was just ok and expensive. Pre book. The second time I did the easy hike behind the hotel. Pastoral and beautiful views of the ship and fjords.

Make sue your out on the deck for the sail away for at lest an hour. Beautiful scenery.

Maloy

Take the highlights tour as there is nothing to do in town

Alesund 

Clearly my favourite. Take the city train tour. Well worth the money. Great walking city. Scenic and good shopping.

The prices here were comparable to Canada. 

Love Norway and will return

Hope this helps
