10 Night Cruise sailing from Stockholm to Warnemunde 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 new age 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.
Copenhagen
When the British bombed Copenhagen to oblivion in 1801 and 1807, no one thought the city could survive. But it's a testament to the hearty Danes that Copenhagen is today one of the loveliest and liveliest cities in Europe. Walk the Strøget (a pedestrian only area of endless charms), gaze at the twinkling lights and flower-filled gardens of Tivoli, or wander the corridors of Christansborg Palace. A few miles away lie Kronborg, the haunt of Hamlet's father in Helsingør (Elsinore) and the water-ringed castle of Frederiksborg in Hillerød.
Warnemunde
Every year in August, Rostock hosts Hanse Sail, a gathering of traditional sailing ships from all over the world. Star Flyer is proud to be part of this event in 2012! The ancient Hanseatic League city of Rostock on the Warnow River has been an important seaport from the 13th century onward and the first propeller-driven ships were built in Rostock. A stroll to the ornate Town Hall and St. Mary's Church takes you from the Gothic Middle Ages to the Renaissance and Baroque eras.
