A nine-night cruise, Whales & Wonders of Iceland, will depart from Liverpool's Cruise Terminal next summer, with limited cabins available. The trip explores Iceland's natural wonders including waterfalls, volcanic craters, and geothermal waters.
Itinerary and wildlife
The voyage, bookable via Fred Olsen Cruise Line, visits Reykjavík, Grundarfjörður, and passes Látrabjarg, Eyjafjörður, Akureyri, the Arctic Circle, and Runavik. Within reach of Húsavík, the 'whale capital of Europe', passengers can see humpback and minke whales in their natural habitat.
After docking, guests can explore towns and marinas with local shops and cafes, embark on mountain walks steeped in folklore where they can 'grant three wishes', or birdwatch puffins, guillemots, and fulmars on cliffs.
