Near the top of the world, two culture-rich cities anchor a stunning Scandinavian landscape of steep mountains and narrow ocean inlets that comprise its coastal and inland fjords. You'll discover the glories of Finland and Norway, along with the majestic natural splendors that connect them. By coastal ship, ferry boat, train, and overland, you'll encounter the unique and enduring Finnish and Norwegian Sami cultures of northern Scandinavia ... experience the austere beauty of Lapland ... and explore the pristine harbors of Norway's coast during a five-night Norwegian coastal cruise. It's a region of contrasts and you'll discover them all on this comprehensive Grand Circle journey.
