FAM report: GLP welcomes agents aboard Hurtigruten

Eleven participants on a GLP Worldwide organized FAM tour recently had the opportunity to experience Hurtigruten’s MS Nordnorge first-hand.

The GLP fam group sailed southbound for six days and five nights along Norway’s fjord-filled and stunning coastline while also overnighting in Olso, Kirkenes and Bergen pre/post cruise. GLP Worldwide Expedition Travel and Tours is the Canadian representative for Hurtigurten which is the leading cruise line for Norway, Antarctica, Greenland and Iceland.

Beginning high above the Arctic Circle in Kirkenes, the cruise sailed south along the fjord-filled coast of Norway calling on numerous ports of call including Trondheim – Norway’s first Capital and the North Cape. The cruise finished in the beautiful Hanseatic port of Bergen.

"First-hand knowledge is so important on a cruise like this so agents can fully understand that this is not just a cruise but truly an expedition with a full range of cultural and soft adventure excursions available to passengers,” explained Alan Law, GLP Worldwide Expedition Travel and Tours' director of sales and marketing. “With over 30 ports of call there is ample opportunity for passengers to meet the locals and travel through some of the most stunning scenery anywhere in the world.”
