The Best and Worst Norway Coastal Excursions
Every Coastal Express brochure makes the shore excursions sound essential. Some are. Some are just a bus ride to a gift shop with an amazing view or some Vikings. Having sailed both Havila and Hurtigruten, I wanted you to know which excursions actually earn their price tag and which ones you can happily skip. This isn’t every excursion on the route, just the ones I have paid for and been on myself. I’ll tell you where the money’s well spent and where it isn’t. If you’re planning a Coastal Express trip and don’t want to hand over cash you didn’t need to spend, this video is for you. #coastalexpress #havila #hurtigruten #norway #Norwaycoastalexpress *********** Welcome to the channel. I create travel videos for fifty-plus explorers looking for authentic journeys around the world — not just where to go, but what it actually feels like to be there. On this channel, you'll find in-depth explorations of cruises, road trips, railway journeys, flights, ferries, and border crossings. Each video digs into the real experience behind travel — the good, the challenging, and the unexpected. Whether it's a weekend break or a longer expedition, I'm interested in how places actually work, the stories behind destinations, and what travel reveals about us as we explore the world. New videos weekly. Subscribe if you're looking for travel that goes beyond the surface. https://www.youtube.com/@michaelhortintravel
