Bergen is the gateway to the Fjords of Norway and a well-established cruise port. It’s an international city packed with history and tradition, a big city with small-town charm and atmosphere. Stroll around old streets and alleyways, and mingle with the crowds at the Fish Market. Saunter along the listed wooden buildings at Bryggen to the old fortress at Bergenhus, or call in at one of Bergen’s museums and galleries. The panoramic views of the city, the fjord and the ocean are breathtaking.

The Shetland Folk Festival is an annual weekend Folk music festival taking place across the Shetland Islands, a scenic archipelago north of Scotland. Running for over 36 years, the festival continues to offer a range of traditional music and dance in the extreme north of the British Isles. If your Windseeker voyage arrives in the small port of Lerwick in April or May, you’ll have the chance to catch authentic Scottish cultural events, alongside pre-historic sites and rugged coastal scenery.
