How to discover Northern Europe and the Baltic capitals in one trip? On a cruise, of course! If you choose a North Sea cruise, you can visit the superb cathedral of St Bavo in Ghent, enjoy shrimp in Ostend and admire wonders of Gothic architecture in Bruges. In the Netherlands, you will visit the fabulous Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam and discover Rotterdam, a resolutely modern city with a design architecture. In Great Britain, you will enjoy visiting Edinburgh the Scottish, a city full of character and myths. Would you prefer to head for the Baltic Sea? Sublime discoveries and visits will also be on the agenda! Denmark and beautiful Copenhagen, a sublime Nordic capital, a soothing fairy tale whose magic is embodied in the Little Mermaid. It will then be time to head to Sweden for a visit to Stockholm, a city built on fifteen islands, whose colourful historic centre is full of charm. You will also dock in Estonia to visit Tallinn, a magnificent medieval capital, and in Russia to discover Saint-Petersburg, the breathtaking northern Venice with its baroque architecture... Your boat will also sail to Finland for a stopover in Helsinki, the northernmost capital of the European Union.
If you dream of a cruise in the Norwegian Sea, you will also be dazzled. What a generous nature around this sea... The fjords, the midnight sun, the mythical North Cape, the glaciers, the preserved archipelagos are a fine example of the spectacle that awaits you. The wonder will continue with Iceland, this lunar island, known for its geysers, volcanoes, glaciers and Reykjavik, its superb capital. You will then visit the Shetland Islands, the wild archipelago of Scotland, its cottages, its cliffs where the contrast between the blue of the sea and the green of the wilderness is striking. The cruise will also take you to Norway where you will admire breathtaking cliffs, picturesque fishing villages, Sognefjord (the longest fjord in the world), not to mention visiting Bergen and, of course, Oslo. Come on, it's high time to embark on this wonderful journey: your dream ship is waiting for you on the platform!
