Suitcase Travel Arvostelua 

We have just returned from a fantastic 12 day Norwegian coastal cruise on a Havila ship organised by Suitcase Travel.

This was the first time we had ever been on a cruise; although Suitcase Travel did say it is unlike any other cruise and more of an experience. It certainly was, and what a fantastic experience.

Suitcase Travel responded to all our initial apprehensive concerns and requirements and gave a thoroughly reassuring explanation of what the cruise was like in every aspect.

The Havila ship itself was brilliant. Great cabins (we had a Seaview Superior), wonderful food and a lovely relaxing and social atmosphere (don't expect any entertainment), either inside with very large windows or out on deck, watching the beautiful Norwegian coast go by.

We could not fault how well the trip was organised by Suitcase Travel, right from the flights between Gatwick and Bergen, accommodation in Bergen on the first night, and the accommodation on board the ship right down to the cabin location on the starboard side to minimise noise when we docked at night. We never heard a thing when we docked at night, although fellow passengers on the port side said the same and when you watch the docking during the day it is a very smooth and quiet affair.

I had always wanted to go on the Norwegian coastal cruise since I saw it on television as a teenager. I am now 70 and Suitcase Travel; although they did not know it at the time; have helped fulfil my dream. As a bonus we also saw the Northern Lights!

If anyone has a similar dream to mine, then I can recommend the Havila line and I would thoroughly recommend using Suitcase Travel to organise the trip.

I normally book independently but as this was my first solo holiday I am very pleased I chose Suitcase Travel to book Havila Cruise up the Norweigan Coast. From the first prompt response to my enquiry, through the booking process and following updates their service has been exceptional. Thank you to the whole team for all the advice and attention to detail. It was a wonderful holiday. Judy Knights

Very good service for our 12 day Norwegian coastal voyage, Bergen to Kirkenes and back with Havila
Faultless.
Personal service.

I used Suitcase Travel to book my first ever solo holiday to Norway. All the members of staff I was in touch with were friendly and helpful throughout. During the holiday there were a couple of issues with hotel strikes and train cancellations and it was a great comfort to know that these sorts of things would be sorted out for me.

The proposed trip along the coast of Norway was out of our usual travel experience. I usually book independently but I took good advice and used Suitcase Travel for their exceptional experience in this area. It was comforting to know that there was back up if the notoriously changeable weather disrupted any arrangements…it didn’t! We had a great trip. Highly recommended.

My wife and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday with Havila on the Norwegian Coastal Cruise. I came across Suitcase Travel during a careful online search for possible cruises around the area. I rang and was immediately assured by Mike who seemed extraordinarily knowledgeable. We decided after his advice and suitability of dates to opt for 14 days with a flight from Gatwick and a lovely hotel in Bergen. We had a spacious twin cabin on Havila Polaris where the food was delicious with appropriately small portions for three courses. My wife has told everyone who cared to listen that it was the best holiday of her life.

Every part of the holiday just works from the hotel at Gatwick to the flight, to the hotel at Bergen, to the cruise up the Norwegian coast and back, air port transfers and flight home.everything was like clockwork, I won’t hesitate to recommend suitcase travel and intend to use them again in the future

Just completed our Havila cruise to the Norwegian Fjords which was fantastic. Suitcase Travel did all the travel arrangements for us and it turned out to be cheaper and easier than arranging ourselves. They sorted all the connecting travel - flights, taxis, buses and accomodation as part of the package so all the travel went really smoothly. Excellent service from Suitcase Travel - thank you again!

We booked through Suitcase Travel for our trip with Havila on the Norwegian Coastal Cruise. We initially spoke to Dylan who was very helpful in advising us which ship company to use, when to go, which flights to take and the best location of the cabin. The flights, transfers, cruise and excursions all went smoothly.
When we had queries before we travelled it was very easy to speak to someone and everyone was very helpful.

SuitcaseTravel were recommended to us by friends, who had an amazing cruise in Norway with Havila.
After chatting with Mike at SuitcaseTravel we were definitely going to take up the cruise to Norway. As Mike's knowledge, information and suggestions for the trip sounded brilliant! So we went to Norway to join Havila cruise line from Bergen to Kirkenes and back to Bergen. As well as Mike's help members of the team were also extremely helpful and quick to respond to any queries/questions we had prior to travelling.
The whole trip was flawless, from the flights to Bergen, bus transfers to outside the hotel for our overnight stay before joining the ship the following afternoon. Which gave us an additional opportunity to explore and enjoy Bergen. At the end of the cruise another bus transfer was provided from the dock to the airport.
Joining the ship was a lovely surprise to the high standard of facilities, friendly and helpful crew and quiet places to relax, to enjoy the amazing sights of Norwegian fjords which are achievable due to the size of the ship.
Lots of boxes were ticked during the cruise so we are extremely grateful for the suggestion and support provided by SuitcaseTravel.

Suitcase travel were very helpful in organising flights, transfers,accommodation as well as advising us on the options for the Norway trip with ' Havila' Cruise lines. Thanks to Suitcase's knowledge and advice , our family group of 5 , ranging in age from 18 to 82, was was really well catered for ….It was the most memorable holiday
and a pleasure to have the expertise of this company to assist us

Our trip involved 4 days on/off train travel + 6 days sailing with coastal company to the north of the country. Three plane journeys, 3 hotels and taxis to connect and the ship. Suitcase travel handled every step of the journey and provided all the tickets required. Not once did we miss a connection or were left without lifts. The whole experience was incredible and its smoothness down to Suitcase Travel. They took the worry away and the staff were always helpful when we had queries. Will have no hesitation in using them again and recommending them to others.

Penny was very knowledgeable and helpful planning and booking our trip to Norway and cruise with Havila. All of the transfers (buses, trains and planes), Hotel accommodation etc. either side of the cruise worked seamlessly and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend suitcase travel. Thanks for a wonderful trip.

I highly recommend Suitcase travel .They took care of every detail of our trip to Norway.
The team are friendly and communication is very good.
I would have no hesitation in using them again

We found Suitcase by accident. Three of us were planning a Norway trip and one did a Google search for something and up they popped.
We contacted them and the whole team were excellent from start to finish.
In the end only my wife and I travelled.
The advice we received about best cabins, booking excursions, etc. was really top notch.

We booked our Norweigan coastal cruise with Havila through Suitcase Travel. The cruise itself was great and Havila get full marks from us. What made Suitcase Travel different was the level of friendly first hand advice which helped to guide our choices and make sure we were properly prepared to get the best from the trip.

Amazing team, thank you. We recently returned from a Havila cruise the length of Norway, it was incredible and made so easy by using suitcase. We had an issue at the start due to bad weather but it was all sorted easily and Mike was really helpful. I will definitely use them again, the stress of a trip is taken away and I know everything will be spot on.

Top class advice and service. I was able to chat through our trip for nearly an hour with Penny who answered all of our questions with no pressure to book . She had been on this holiday and gave a personal perspective. We had lots of options as to what kind of Norwegian trip we could take and she was able to help us choose which one was right for us based on our needs. We returned from our voyage north yesterday, it exceeded our expectations. Suitcase made the whole process easy , great pre and post hotels , seemless transfers and excursions pre booked before travel . Thank you! Highly recommended!!

I contacted Suitcase Travel having seen an article about Norway Coastal cruises.
Suitcase were very helpful and as a result I booked a Havila cruise from Bergen to Kirkenes and back through them.
Everything was well organised and all the arrangements went without a hitch.
Suitcase also provided good advice about the holiday and everything associated.
Very happy with the service

We wanted to go on a last minute holiday to Norway. I usually book independently but was running out of time. I read an article from Suitcase Travel and gave them a call. 2 days later everything was booked and 5 days later we were travelling! The itinerary was seamless with even airport/hotel transfers included making the holiday relaxing and effortless. The trip included a Havila K to B cruise and the Berganbanen train from Bergen to Oslo. All the suitcase travel team were knowledgeable and helpful and we would highly recommend.
