Cruise Overview:
Spectacular sights abound on this memorable cruise of contrasts. Discover medieval towns, impressive palaces, dramatic cathedrals, stunning vistas and more as you journey through the Baltic, visiting the 'old world' Scandinavian kingdoms and the 'new world' of Russia and Estonia.

Highlights of this cruise:

Copenhagen
From the grandeur of the Amalienborg Palace to the non-stop fun of Tivoli Gardens; from the superb shopping along the Strrget to the magnificent art treasures in the city museums, Denmark's capital really does have it all. Den Lille Havfrue - the Little Mermaid and Hamlet's Castle at Elsinore are added bonuses.

Tallinn
A very attractive Baltic capital city, that is renowned for its friendliness and the welcome it provides for visitors. Estonia is now a modern forward thinking country but with a great pride in its history. Tallinn has a well-preserved medieval quarter, impressive fortified city walls and it is a delight to visit the quaintly named Long Leg Street or Tall Hermann, a 14th century watchtower.

St Petersburg
Russia's glorious second city and even our long stay here is barely sufficient to view even a proportion of the wonderful sights that this real Baltic Treasure has to offer. The Hermitage, and its outstanding art collection, the Peter & Paul Fortress, St Isaac's Cathedral, the battleship Aurora, whose guns signalled the start of the 1917 revolution, all vie for your attention in this city on the banks of the Neva River. A full programme of excursions, including evening options to the ballet or a folklore show, is operated here to help you make the most of your precious time.

Helsinki
The Finnish capital typifies the country's reputation for the best in modern design and architecture. Splendid buildings old and new are shown to their best effect in an uncrowded setting of parks and woodlands. You can't miss the spectacular onion-domed Uspensky Cathedral which dominates the harbour.

Stockholm
The 700-year old capital of Sweden is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and is spread over 14 islands, connected by some 50 bridges. Wander around the enchanting medieval Gamla Stan, the original old town; visit the fascinating Wasa Museum, housing the world's oldest identified ship or just enjoy the fine restaurants and elegant shops of the Strandvagen.
