Anyone done one of these cruises? Either thr Norway one or the northern Europe one that goes to Denmark, Estonia, Russia etc.

Would you recommend? Thanks

Yes please do a trippie. Really interested in that route.

We've done Norway, Iceland and Orkney on a DCL cruise.

Great cruise, very beautiful surroundings but very expensive on land once docked. I think Mick paid �8-�10 for a pint in Norway

Very safe ports, we did DIY in all and never once felt troubled (we have done in the Caribbean).

Norway has high taxes on alcohol. We asked the locals their opinions and the ones we spoke to said that they had problems before, but now not so much and the taxes go toward their public services.

Must be the same in Iceland as well then as it was really expensive there too!
