Offering the best possible way to explore the Norwegian Coast, cruises aboard MS Fram is an explorer's dream. Offering cruises specifically designed to enjoy the beautiful Norwegian coast, there is no shortage of sites to see aboard MS Fram. Hurtigruten's long history of voyage along this route guarantees you the most enjoyable Norwegian cruise experience found anywhere.

 MS Fram bears the same name as the original ship to venture to the North Pole back in 1892. With that same adventurous resolve, touched with a bit of modern class, MS Fram continues the Norwegian exploratory tradition. Concentrating not on the ship, but rather the beautiful scenery, MS Fram is perfectly decorated to provide the full immersion of the frozen north. Adorned with multiple floor to ceiling windows, guests can enjoy the views offered, all while enjoying the warmth that is also offered inside the many lobbies.

The fun of a MS Fram cruise doesn't end once the ship docks, it actually just begins! Offering almost 50 shore excursions, there is no shortage of excitement to be had on your Norwegian adventure. From dog sledding to tours of the beautiful Norwegian fjords, you can tackle any adventure you would like during your MS Fram cruise.
