Have you been on one? One thing I miss by living in Spain is snow. I also fancy doing a bit of Norther Lights chasing.
Recommendations, please.
Years ago, I did the Norwegian Fjords, which was very good.
Cruise ship left from Southampton, which made the travelling easier for me, with no flights.

Plenty of snow in the Pyrenees or Sierra Nevada - not much smørbrød 'tho 
If you’re thinking of heading to Norway and the Fjords, be aware that many of today’s cruise liners are simply too large to safely navigate the fjords, and so it becomes “Now to show you what you would have won”, as you gaze wistfully up the fjord from it’s entry point.
The answer is to travel with Hurtigruten Cruises, run by the Norwegian Postal Service, and whose boats are, of necessity, much smaller, to enable them to to access right up the fjords, in order to deliver the mail.
Maybe not quite as luxurious as the bigger boats, but still plenty comfortable, and you do get to travel up the fjords, which, after all, is the whole point of going in the first place.
They also organise trips onto the ice floes with guides in attendance.
Have a glance at their website for full info, but they would be my first choice every time.

We’ve cruised the Norwegian coast with Hurtigruten in and out of the fjords, really worth doing , great ships comfortable and not too big.
Last summer went to Svalbard with Hurtigruten, couldn’t recommend it more highly. To be up in the high Arctic is spectacular, 24 hour sunshine, fab wildlife and landscapes. …photo taken about midnight…

That’s not true ,If you go with Viking then they can get right up the Fjiords where the large ones can’t .plus you only have 900 folk on board instead on several thousand.
WiFi, drinks with meals are free plus a free trip in every port. Not like some rip off cruise companies.
Not cheap though.
