About the Baltic

As you cruise the Baltic, you’ll find there is something quite enthralling about the scenery in this part of the world. Gilded cities that cut majestic silhouettes across the sky. Forests that give way to cascading waterfalls. The Baltic landscape has been carved by the ocean and there really is no better way to visit this region than on a cruise.

Harking back to their Viking ancestry, the residents of the Baltic thrive on ocean life. Fresh fish abounds in local restaurants. Fishing vessels line the shore. Yachts moor in the marinas. Away from the coast, more delights can be found. The imposing towers and medieval streets of Gdansk. Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki raft in Oslo and, perhaps one of the most inspiring sights of the Baltic, the extravagant collection of art found within the walls of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg.
