We did one with Hurtigruten a few years ago. Bergen up to Tromso. Smallish ship, more enjoyable than a "floating block of flats!"

We did one with Celebrity Cruises, they were pretty good and just below Cunard imo. We did Australia and New Zealand at the end of last year and the standards have decidedly dropped. The fjords were well worth seeing

Went with Fred Olsen 4-5 years ago to Norway. Loved it, just booked another with them to Jersey, Scilly island and Falmouth. Over a bank holiday weekend so only 2.5 working days.
Can't be doing with airports anymore.

Not done the fjord cruises on a cruise ship, but I have been in and out of a few on a naval frigate. We were doing a big exercise back in very early 1998 and spent a lot of time trying to “hide” in them. Amazing views, but it wasn’t half cold. Have a great time.

We went from Liverpool to the fyords via shetlands. ( lovely place)
fantastic place ,a little touristy because of the obvious cruise ships .
very small boat .
had a bit of a sprain on my ankle so thought I will “ice” my foot off a small jetty in the Fyord ,the water was that cold I thought my foot had fell off.
the weather was fantastic for the week,
it’s very expensive to buy anything ashore so take what you need.

Yes lad with us got fish and chips and a bottle of beer £30. ( street vendor)
Was six years ago.
why he did this is a mystery as the food on the ship was fantastic. ( and all inclusive )
I must say sailing out of Liverpool was fantastic.
Better than the ferry
