Did You Miss the Northern Lights in the UK on Sunday Night, or Did It Whet Your Appetite to See More? Save £500 Per Cabin When You Book by End of March
Any appearance of the aurora is magical to watch - did you know that in the UK they appear on the horizon, but when the lights appear above you in Northern Norway, you can often watch them dance around the whole sky, directly over your head.
Havila Voyages, who offer cruises along the Norwegian coast, are so confident that its ships offer the perfect viewing platform for the natural phenomenon, that they offer a 'Northern Lights Promise'. This means, any guest booking a twelve-day cruise along the Norwegian coast (Bergen-Kirkenes-Bergen) will be eligible for a free six- or seven-night voyage, if the natural phenomenon doesn't appear during their trip.
Havila's coastal cruise ships sail away from the light pollution on land making them the ideal place from which to spot the lights flickering over the Arctic skies. Passengers can stay warm while they watch the skies dance by jumping into the on-board jacuzzi or by heading indoors to the lounge, where a glass roof and reclining chairs make for uninterrupted views of the Arctic sky.
While on-board guests have access to numerous excursions including husky sledding, snowmobiling and many other tours and activities.
Havila's ships have been designed to be the most environmentally friendly vessels to operate along the Norwegian coastal route and feature the World's largest battery packs on a passenger ship. This allows them to sail through fjords and other vulnerable areas for up to four hours - quietly and emission free.
Best Served Scandinavia currently offer the 11 night round voyage (Bergen-Kirkenes-Bergen) from £1,325 including return flights from London Heathrow, transfers, cruise in an interior cabin on full board basis plus one night in a hotel pre and post cruise (B&B basis).
Prices are valid for any sailing in November 2023 (choice of 12 dates). The price includes a saving of £500 per cabin when you book by 31.03.23. It is subject to availability, correct at time of issue and based on two sharing.
The 'Northern Lights Promise' is valid for all departures from 1 October to 31 March and the replacement trip (if needed), will take place the following winter.

Note to editors:
A Northern Lights occurrence is defined as the Aurora being sighted and announced by the crew and will be logged for reference. The second (replacement) voyage must be booked within 4 weeks of the end of their trip.
