Your Destinations —

Helsinki

Helsinki is an intriguing mixture: a neo-classical marvel with an art nouveau quarter interspersed with Alvar Aalto's spectacular modern architecture and set on a peninsula jutting out into the Baltic. Smart pavement cafés on Esplanaden; gourmet restaurants at a fraction of London prices; concerts and ballet at Finlandia Hall; boat trips and great value shopping particularly for iconic design brands.

St Petersburg

Often described as the Venice of the North, St Petersburg is a city defined by water. The mighty Neva River empties into the Gulf of Finland near the Fortress of Peter & Paul – the final resting place of the Tsars – and canals snake through the backstreets, passing stately townhouses. Explore this enchanting city and discover the many hidden treasures!

Tallinn

The medieval centre of Tallinn is said to be the most beautiful of all the Baltic countries. There is a reason for it being one of the most popular destinations in north Europe! The most attractive places for tourists in the lower part of the Old Town are St. Nikolas Church, situated at the bottom of the Cathedral Hill, the Holy Ghost Church right in the centre and the beautiful St. Olav’s church in the north. The historic Old Town was declared the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.

Stockholm

Stockholm’s good looks and fashion sense could almost be intimidating. But this city is an accessible beauty, as easy to explore as it is to love. Though spread across 14 islands, connected by 57 bridges, it is compact and walkable. Each neighbourhood has a distinct character, yet they’re so close together you can easily spend time in several areas. In each, you'll find trend-setting design, inventive cuisine, unbeatable museums, great shopping, pretty parks and loads of atmosphere.

Note: guests are usually required to obtain a visa to enter Russia, but for arrivals by boat and with the City Bus to St Petersburg tour (included) this is not necessary. See more in Russia Travel Advice on page 2. 
Day 4: Tallinn (9am - 6.30pm)
Tallinn represents a medieval enclave perched on top of a hill looking overlooking the Baltics. Among the remains of the medieval battlements and towers, dominated by the simple arrows of Protestant churches, the cobbled and narrow streets lead through the city until the old square animated by its restaurants, shops, the passing of the little blue train and horse-drawn carriages. 

Also take the chance to explore the old town. The old town is located in the heart of Tallinn. Divided in two very distinctive parts: Toompea hill and The lower town, centered on Raekoja plats (the Town Hall Square) is still surrounded by a 2.5km fortified wall.

Stockholm is generally referred to as Beauty on Water, or Venice of the North which is understandable, as the city is built upon 14 islands. It is surrounded by Lake Mälaren, and by the Baltic Sea.  Her grand public buildings, palaces, rich cultural history and museums tell her 700 year-old history beautifully. Visit the Gamla Stan (Old town), where you will be charmed by cobblestone streets, crooked but beautifully preserved buildings, The Royal Palace, gothic churches and excellent cafés, bars, restaurants and Swedish design-ware shops. Overnight on board.
