In this video, I’m joined by Lisa and Giles from the Travelling Light channel, who share their real-world experience cruising Norway with Fred. Olsen, P&O and Ambassador. Together, we explore how these UK-based cruise lines compare, who they’re best suited for, and how travellers can experience Norway’s dramatic coastline for significantly less.
