MS Kong Harald

MS Kong Harald

Royal

Although this ship is formally named after the King of Norway, Harald V, you will also find other famous Norwegians on board: The bar is named after Nobel Peace Laureate, Fridtjof Nansen; the café, after explorer Roald Amundsen. MS Kong Harald was set afloat in 1993 to mark Hurtigruten´s 100- year anniversary. In the ship´s interior, you will see decorative details of the King´s Crown emblem.

True to tradition, many local artists have put their own individual stamp on this elegant vessel, with distinctive works displayed throughout.
