Winter breaks to Norway and the Pulpit Rock

4th December 2007 Print
Winter breaks to Norway and the Pulpit Rock After a disappointing summer, it is not surprising that winter breaks are becoming increasingly popular, and at DFDS Seaways the choice is vast. So why not book a trip today and explore Stavanger in Norway and its natural beauty on a three night short hotel cruise break from Newcastle.

Departing on Saturdays, on selected dates, throughout the winter and spring months, you’ll spend your first restful night on board the cruise ferry m.s QUEEN OF SCANDINAVIA, where you can take full advantage of an array of facilities including fine restaurants, bars, lounges and disco, onboard casino, swimming pool and duty-free-shopping – or simply retire to the comfort and tranquillity of your cabin.

Docking in the beautiful city of Stavanger, you’ll spend a night in a hotel with breakfast included. The next day, enjoy a 3 ½ hour boat sightseeing tour which takes you along the spectacular 42 kilometre long Lysefjord. En route you see waterfalls and idyllic islands amongst the magnificent scenery, before reaching its pinnacle at the famous Pulpit Rock.

Following the tour, enjoy some time in the city, perhaps a bite to eat or a spot of shopping before re-boarding for the return journey to Newcastle.

Prices start from £99pp and include:

- 2 nights onboard ship in a Seaways class cabin
- 1 night in a 3-4 star hotel in Stavanger including breakfast (4 star upgrade available from as little as £10pp)
- 3 ½ hour sight seeing boat trip to Pulpit Rock
