Celebrity Apex: 14-Night Norwegian Fjords & Arctic Circle

London (Southampton) cruise port is the busiest cruise departure point in the United Kingdom and one of the largest in Northern Europe. The port sits in Southampton, a city on England's southern coast about 80 miles southwest of London.

Norway's third-largest city, and its original capital. Trondheim sits on a peninsula in the Trondheim Fjord, founded in 997 AD by Viking King Olav Tryggvason.

Tromsø is northern Norway's largest city and a major Arctic cruise hub, located about 350 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle at 69° north latitude. The city sits on the small island of Tromsøya, connected to the mainland and neighboring islands by bridges and undersea tunnels.

Molde is a small Norwegian town of about 32,000 people on the Romsdal coast, known as the "City of Roses" for the roses that bloom along its streets in summer. It sits on the north shore of the Romsdalsfjord in western Norway, with panoramic views of 222 snow-capped peaks (the "Molde Panorama") across the fjord on clear days.

Zeebrugge is a North Sea port about 15 km from Bruges, one of Europe's best-preserved medieval cities. Ships dock at Zeebrugge, but the destination is Bruges: a city of 120,000 people whose medieval center survived the centuries virtually intact because the city's commercial importance faded after the Zwin river silted up in the 15th century, and nobody had a reason to tear anything down.
