I answered you question in this topic - same answer!!!

The Harbor bus (Ferry) is from Orientkaj - you must take bus 25 or 164 (or walk 2 miles) from Oceankaj to Orientkaj (assuming your ship will dock at Oceankaj). If you purchase a two zone ticket for the bus the same ticket is valid for the ferry - public transportation. Alternative to ferry from Orientkaj is metro M4 to Kgs. Nytorv (Nyhavn) - also same ticket - cost for two zones is DKK 24 ( cash or DOT App).

Here some DIY options: Copenhagen is very walkable - the center is compact and it is safe to walk around.Good sights are Rosenborg Castle, the Royal Castle Amalienborg - guard change at noon and museums. Christiansborg Castle (The Parliament). Nyhavn and canal tour. Tivoli Gardens. Also HoHO bus. A good museum is Glyptoteket. Also good shopping options - Illum, Illums Bolighus, Royal Copenhagen Store and George Jensen - all located at Amagertorv (pedestrian street - Strøget). And some more inspiration in this topic:

It is an arctic cruise but in August there is no midnight sun. Honningsvåg has North Cape. Tromsø and the Lofoten islands are nice locations. Also Ålesund and Trondheim are fine ports, but I miss the deep Norwegian fjords to Geiranger, Flåm or Olden.

When you have good experience with NCL and they have a good itinerary it will be a good choice. Personally, I use RCCL. in the Mediterranean I will avoid MSC and Costa - can be a bit too 'local'.

The answer depends on whether your port of call is Ålesund or Geiranger. Geiranger Fjord is impressive but if you call Geiranger the ship sails through the fjord and then I would suggest you go to the viewpoints. I definitely think you should prioritize a trip around Bergen over a boat trip.

You might get better advice in the France Port Forum https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/462-france-ports/

Yes, that information was previously available in the Flåm port of call list, as was the case in 2023 - however, I cannot find that information in the port of call list for 2024. some Cruise Lines will include the information in The Cruise docs

price depends on the day of the week and time of day - NOK 150 to 235.

The 90-day rule applies to all Schengen countries. Every visit counts regardless of country. If you visit the Schengen area on a cruise, you are not in transit. With the introduction of EES and ETIAS, all visits will be registered and there will be no doubt about how many days you have been in the Schengen area. EES is expected to be ready at the end of 2024 and ETIAS in 2025 https://travel-europe.europa.eu/index_en

I'm not quite sure I understand your question, but since Madeira is part of Schengen, your stay in Madeira counts - also if you sail from the UK to the Schengen Area, the days you are in the Schengen area count - sea days between ports in Schengen also count .

Always check prices at the Norwegian HX site in Norwegian Krone

I think you are asking your question in the wrong Forum - Hurtigruten and Havila sail with a fixed schedule along the Norwegian coast with relatively short stops - the stop in Tromsø is too short for a visit to the Tromso Ice Domes Hotel. Maybe the Hurtigruten Nordkap Expressen with MS Trollfjord has a longer stay in Tromsø, but I'm not sure. I think you should look for one of the 'ordinary' cruise lines - perhaps Viking Ocean, Fred Olsen, Cunard, or P&O

Welcome to Cruise Critic. That's a good question and it would be a great service if the cruise lines could provide this service. Unfortunately, this is not a realistic expectation. There are many different countries and nationalities and requirements for visas can be different from country to country and requirements are often changed. The cruise lines will not have the resources to continuously keep up to date with the many frequently changing requirements. You can try asking here in Cruise Critic, but you cannot expect to get a definitive answer - you must do your own research and you will get the best answer from the consulates and embassies of the individual visiting countries. If they say you need a visa, that is correct. You just have to be aware of multiple entry visas if you travel back and forth between countries.
