This unique itinerary quickly stood out. It combines Denmark, Norway’s dramatic fjords, and Iceland’s unforgettable scenery in one beautifully paced journey—and I was able to secure an excellent group rate aboard Regal Princess.
My Come Along trips are designed to feel welcoming whether you already know me well or are traveling with me for the first time. You can spend your vacation as independently as you like, while still having familiar faces, shared experiences, and the reassurance of knowing that I am traveling alongside the group.
Begin in One of Europe’s Most Inviting Capitals
Copenhagen is worth more than a quick arrival before the cruise. Travelers may choose to come a few days early to stroll through colorful Nyhavn, cruise the canals, visit royal palaces, explore Tivoli Gardens, and enjoy the city’s celebrated food and design.
Once aboard Regal Princess, our first port is Skagen at the northern tip of Denmark. This charming coastal region is known for its sandy landscapes, traditional yellow houses, art history, and the meeting point of two seas.
Pre-cruise planning assistance will be available for Copenhagen hotels, sightseeing, transfers, and flights.
Sail Deep Into Some of Europe’s Most Dramatic Scenery
Norway is the scenic heart of this itinerary. We will cruise through Hardangerfjord before visiting Skjolden at the end of Sognefjord and Olden in the Nordfjord region.
These are places where the journey itself is part of the destination. Guests can wake to steep green mountains outside the window, watch waterfalls tumble toward the fjord, and enjoy views that change throughout the day as the ship sails inland.
Ashore, possible experiences may include glacier viewpoints, scenic routes, mountain lakes, waterfalls, farms, kayaking, village walks, and panoramic drives.
Travelers who loved Alaska may find a familiar sense of grandeur here—combined with distinctly Scandinavian villages, culture, and history.
Remote fjords, colorful communities, and extraordinary northern landscapes
Many visitors experience only Reykjavik and Iceland’s most familiar southern attractions. This sailing also brings us to three remote northern ports: Seydisfjordur, Akureyri, and Isafjordur.
Each offers a different view of Iceland. Seydisfjordur is known for its colorful wooden buildings and mountain setting. Akureyri provides access to waterfalls, geothermal landscapes, and the Lake Myvatn region. Isafjordur introduces us to the rugged Westfjords, where mountains rise sharply above quiet fishing communities.
After the cruise, travelers may extend their stay in Reykjavik to visit the Golden Circle, South Coast, geothermal lagoons, waterfalls, or other parts of Iceland.
Post-cruise Iceland planning, including hotels, tours, transfers, and points options, will be available through Forward Points + Travel.
You do not need to know me before the trip to feel welcome. My goal is to create a friendly, flexible group where travelers can enjoy the comfort of familiar faces without feeling that every day or activity must be shared.
Join me for selected meals, excursions, or informal group moments—or explore independently and reconnect later. You are free to shape the vacation that suits you best.
I will be available to help group members with questions, unexpected situations, and the practical details that can make travel feel easier.

Do I need to know Renee or her family already?
Not at all. Some travelers may be longtime friends or clients, while others may be meeting us for the first time. Everyone who joins should feel welcome.
Will the group do everything together?
No. There will be some meals or excursions offered together, or informal gatherings, but travelers can participate as much or as little as they prefer.
Is this an escorted tour?
This is a hosted Come Along cruise rather than a fully escorted tour. I will travel with the group and provide planning and support, but guests will retain the freedom to enjoy the trip independently.
Can you help with Copenhagen and Iceland?
Yes. I can assist with pre-cruise Copenhagen stays, post-cruise Iceland travel, hotels, tours, transfers, and flight planning.
Are children and teens allowed on this trip?
Yes. Families are welcome, and Regal Princess offers supervised youth and teen programming for different age groups. I can also help families consider stateroom arrangements, activities, and excursion options appropriate for their children.
Can I invite friends or extended family to join us?
Absolutely. Friends, extended family members, and others you would enjoy traveling with are welcome to join. Each participating stateroom must be booked through Forward Points + Travel or transferred while eligible so that travelers can be included in the official group.
Is travel insurance available?
Yes. Travel protection options will be offered and should be considered soon after booking, particularly for an international trip with flights and additional travel arrangements.
Can I book this cruise directly with Princess and still participate in the group?
To receive the group pricing, communications, planning support, and any group-specific benefits, your cruise reservation must be booked through Forward Points + Travel or transferred to Forward Points + Travel while it is still eligible for transfer.
Already booked this sailing directly with Princess? Contact me before making additional payments or changes. I will check whether your reservation can be transferred and associated with our group while preserving your current cabin and fare.
