A few ferry companies also operate services to Iceland from Norway, Denmark and Germany. Although most of these are mainly cargo ships, they have comfortable and modern facilities for passengers. Smyril Line , the Faroe Island's ferry service, runs a weekly passenger and car ferry service between the Shetland Islands, Denmark, Norway, and Svedisfiordur in Iceland during the summer months.
Many cruise also stop at Iceland.
Operators include Holland America, Cunard, Seabourn, Crystal, Silversea, Princess, Royal Caribbean International and Orient Cruises .
