Cruising in the Norwegian fjords has never been more popular. But Norway is divided about the economic benefits versus the environmental and social impact of cruise ships.
So, I decided to check out big ship cruising in Norway to see for myself what it’s all about from the perspective of the passengers.
This is the story of my trip on MSC Euribia in the Norwegian Fjords, including visits to the cruise ports of Ålesund, Nordfjordeid, and Flåm.

Enjoy your summer, David! Thank you for uploading videos. I like your podcasts a lot
Very enjoyable vlog – Thank you.
Thanks, very helpful
Love it David, it looks like you had a great time, your videos are getting better and better mate 👍 I look forward to seeing your next installments 😊
One of the pizzas you showed had a grey base?…..do you know what it was made of??
Why does Norway allow these huge ships???
in contemplating a norwegian cruise, coming from the u.s., i have found your videos to be a great source of information. and i like your calm demeanor. one thing i learned from watching this video is that i am very much leaning towards havila. i am definitely not the floating holiday camp sort of person. at. all. yikes!
Thanks, David. We did go on the Hurtigruten from Bødo to Svolvær and that was sufficient for us. We really don't agree that so many of the bigger cruise ships are allowed down the fjords, but how else will so many get to see them when alternate means of travel may not have the capacity?
Great video, but I have one or two questions. We are thinking of booking this for end of September. Have you been to the port of Hellesylt? If you have, what sightseeing excursion would you recommend? The other 2 ports it will stop at are Alesund and flám. Thank you
Great video, I am a tour operator and we have never done a cruise before and thought you gave a really good persepctive. I am leaning towards smaller ships now, thanks for the great upload! What month did you prefer to go on these cruises? thanks!
I like MSC's smaller ship the most.
Thank you so much for the great and helpful video. Will cruise Fiords in Euribia this September and it helped to get an overview ❤
The food unlimited inside curiso
That is gross. How much pollution are these ships putting into the atmosphere. Flam, years ago, were trying to ban these monsters because of the pollution.
Such an informative, helpful and beautiful video overall! Thank you and hoped you enjoyed your time!
Hey David, can you please tell us in which month your trip was? Thanks
I'm here for the fantastic bread 🍞
