What could be more romantic than walking along rivers and canals when night is as bright as early evening? Fall under the spell of the White Nights ("Belye Nochy") in the land of the midnight sun. You'll relish in Tivoli Gardens of Copenhagen, view the famous Little Mermaid, and experience centuries-old art, artifacts, and architectural finds as you take in the Viking history of the region.
We'll sail through the stunningly beautiful Archepelio towards Stockholm and explore Old Town before taking in the offerings of the quaint cafes, shops and beautiful parks. Also see the Royal Palace and its magnificent Baroque and Rococo interiors. Explore the sophisticated capital of Finland- scenic Helsinki-where you'll find stylish shops, friendly faces, and even a church quarried completely out of bedrock.
As you step off the ship into Catherine the Great's St. Petersburg, one of the most beautiful and historically rich cities in the world with more than 60 rivers and canals and over 300 bridges, you'll feel the energy and excitement of the city's summer festival of White Nights. We'll arrive in the early hours of the morning and spend one night to give you as much time as possible to take it all in. Stroll Nevsky Prospekt to visit the Imperial palaces and experience the birthplace of Russian literature and the infamous Faberge'. Indulge yourself in the rich history of the magnificent Hermitage, one of the world's largest museums, housed in the Winter Palace on the embankment of the River Neva, and enjoy the sweet music of local musicians playing for their friends on Palace Square.
Pass through the city walls of Old Town Tallin to find yourself on cobblestone streets under turrets and red-tiled roofs in the center of in an enchanting mix of medieval charm and modern amenities. We'll conclude our journey back in Copenhagen where you'll have the option of pre- and post-cruise excursions to extend your Scandinavian vacation! And what better way to see these amazing places than in the company of women of Olivia.
