11 Night Cruise sailing from Stockholm roundtrip aboard Star Flyer.
Star Flyer is as fleet as the wind and as graceful as swans. This is a true clipper ship, reflecting the proud heritage in every inch of polished brass and gleaming brightwork.
Step aboard this unique vessel and discover a newage of sail, where the traditions of the past are happily married to the comforts and amenities of the present. Star Flyer ia a modern cruise ship in every way, created for comfort-loving passengers who also love the traditions and romance of the legendary era of sailing ships. Star Flyer is 360 feet long and carries just 170 guests in pampered comfort. Life aboard is blissfully relaxed, much like travelling on a private yacht. You'll never feel confined, as the ship offers pleasingly spacious accommodation and expansive teak decks with ample space for relaxing and play. In fact, you'll find that the ship offers more outdoor space per passenger than most conventional cruise ships.
The décor of Star Flyer is reminiscent of the grand age of sail. Antique prints and paintings of famous sailing ships please the eye, while teak and gleaming mahogany rails are richly reminiscent of Star Flyer's proud nautical heritage.
Enjoy our convivial indoor-outdoor Tropical Bar and Piano Bar, and Edwardian style library where a Belle Époque fireplace glows with a warmth that reflects the friendliness and enthusiasm of Star Flyer's hospitable officers and crew.
Highlights of this cruise:
Stockholm
Gamla Stan, the oldest part of Stockholm, is where Lake Malaren is separated by the Slussen from the saltsjon or sea. It is only one of 14 islands that make up this amazingly lovely fresh/salt water-girt city. Some would argue that Stockholm is the most beautiful on earth - and the most accessible by foot or water - for no matter where you look, something tempts your eye, whether it's the red-brick medieval houses, grand public buildings and palaces, the luxuriant waterside parks, the cobbled streets leading to tempting shops and restaurants, or the silver-dipped waters dotted with sails. Be sure to see the Wasa, King Gustav II Adolf's gilt-trimmed flagship, on display after 300 years under the sea.
Visby
In Visby, the beloved city of walls and roses, it is an odd fact the festive Medieval Week (Medeltidsvecken) actually commemorates the siege and defeat of the city (and slaughter of many of its defenders) by the invading King Valdemar of Denmark in July, 1361. Today's event has no blood and gore but instead is a celebration of great colour and pageantry. Visitors can explore Visby's city walls that enfold the back of the old Hanseatic merchant town in a protective circle of limestone battlements. Or look up at towering specimen trees and inhale the delicate scents (including the roses) of exotic flowers at the lush Botanic Gardens.
Tallinn
The birth of Estonia's independence from Soviet Russia began with a marathon sing-a-long demonstration in a Tallinn arena in 1988. You too will sing the praises of this exquisitely restored city on the Bay of Finland. The red walls of Toompea Castle, proudly flying the Estonian flag, the pink and white baroque extravagance of Peter the Great's Kagriorg Palace, the massive city walls and the church-like Town Hall bordering the most beautiful town square in Northern Europe - and so much more - await your discovery!
St Petersburg
They say those with the most toys win. That must have been the philosophy of Peter the Great when he built magnificent St. Petersburg. His 'Window on the West' glitters with the grandest opera, museums, music, ballet, palaces, churches, monuments and culture ever assembled by one monarch. (Of course, he was helped by a few successors, such as Catherine the Great). Star Flyer will spend two days here - the perfect time of year to enjoy St. Petersburg's white nights!
