Hurtigruten Offers the Deal of Lifetime

As mentioned earlier in the Farefinder...

If you've never been on a cruise, now would be a good time to consider it. At this point, it's old news that cruise lines around the world are offering amazingly low-rates to combat the struggling economy. However, Hurtigruten has just taken their rates to newsworthy lows.

Hurtigruten has unveiled a program on two of its 2009 Greenland cruises that offers an all-inclusive approach and savings up to 68%. The "Pay One Price" deal is available on all suites and staterooms on the 318-berth Fram, a deluxe expedition ship, for the season's two one-way sailings.

Suites, normally $16,676 to $20,366 per person, double, are being priced at $5,499 to $7,249, while staterooms, normally $12,536 to $15,716, are $3,999 to $5,249. Suite bookings include two optional excursions; wine, beer or soda at meals; and a bottle of Champagne. The booking deadline is March 31.

Although Greenland might not be the exotic destination you'd always imagined, travelers can count on beautiful scenery and luxurious accommodations. Plus, with all the money saved in the process, you can make a pretty respectable offer to buy Iceland during the stop over in Reykjavik.
