Be warned that this trip is definitely not for the faint hearted. Myself and 3 friends were lucky as we were blessed with a relatively calm crossing from Newcastle to Bergen, the return journey was a little rougher and for this reason please be warned if you're prone to... more

I hated the trip from start to end. the food was very expensive and not very good with limited choices. If I had known it was going to be so expensive, I would have taken some of my own food. I felt very miserable and took it out on my boyfriend because he had travelled... more

Firstly, a few facts about the ferry. She was built originally in 1981 and has been rebuilt (two new bows and extra flotation devices called sponsens) twice since due to stability problems. This has cut the number of car spaces dramatically, whilst leaving a large number... more

I have just returned from a coastal cruise to Bergen in Norway from Newcastle and had a great time. It's a lovely big ship, much posher than I expected, and having been told the cabins would be tiny, i was pleasantly surprised to find it bigger than I imagined. The... more

We travelled on the Queen of Scandinavia for a 3-night mini-cruise to Bergen departing the Royal Quay, Tyneside on October 16th 2007. My last DFDS experience was in 1986 and 1987 (a couple of days after the great storm - the crossing was "interesting"!) sailing on the Tor... more

If you aren't expecting a 5 star, dine with the captain-type of cruise, and then this is good fun. The cabins are small and basic, but clean. Take the 'sleeps 4 persons' with a pinch of salt, we had two cabins for a family of 4 and fit fine. The food on board is good but... more

This was a mini-cruise from Newcastle to Bergen. It was very good value in that children were free. Two breakfasts and an evening meal were included, and I believe the total cost was £170. Unfortunately, as I booked at the last minute, all the cabins with sea view had... more

We used this route two years ago when it was run by FjordLine (Fjord Norway) so my comments are in comparison with then. The ship itself seemed to be in better condition that the Fjord Norway, but in reality that's the only good point. Staff seemed ok, but the food, oh... more
