Honningsvag, North Cape

Cruise passengers are encouraged to put on their binoculars during the bus excursion from the small island town of Honningsvag to the dramatic cliffs of North Cape. Watch for reindeer grazing on the starkly beautiful tundra. The Sami, the indiginous people of the Nordic countries, have traditionally been semi-nomadic reindeer herders. You'll have the opportunity to meet and speak with some Sami people and learn about their rich culture during a stop at a visitors center en route. Talk about being on top of the world! Viking Sky's guests were treated to an excursion to Nordkapp, North Cape, one of Europe's most remote and stunning natural sights. It is the northernmost point in Europe that can be accessed by car. It offers breathtaking views over rugged cliffs from a 1,000-foot plateau. For more information: VIKING OCEAN CRUISES
