I have always wanted to go to Norway and sail among the snow-capped fjords and gaze at the dancing Northern lights from a log cabin in the Artic circle. I've found a great deal on Travelzoo for a 4-night mini cruise departing in August for only £199. You'd be sailing to the wild Orkney Islands fist before docking at beautiful Bergen.
Bergen, perched on the west coast of Norway is described by Lonely Planet online as a "beautiful, charming city". The town offers stunning views from Mt Fløyen and is a natural base for exploring the surrounding fjords. It is also home to the Hanseatic Wharf, Bryggen, an ancient wooden wharf area of markets, small museums and old wooden houses.
I'm so tempted!
