Northern Europe by Sea
A Remarkable Collection of Cities in One Journey
One of the great advantages of cruising this region is how naturally the destinations fit together. Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki and Tallinn each feel distinctly different, while other calls can add even more of Northern Europe to the experience.
Tallinn
Medieval walls, church towers and winding streets make Tallinn one of the Baltic's most atmospheric and memorable old cities.
Helsinki
A welcoming waterfront capital known for distinctive architecture, markets, design and an easygoing Nordic atmosphere.
Every departure is a little different.
Exact ports, port times and embarkation cities vary by sailing, so we can help
compare the itineraries rather than simply choosing by date or price.
Experience Behind the Recommendation
We Sailed the Baltics & Scandinavia in May 2026
Suzanne and Steve sailed Holland America's Baltic and Scandinavian Capitals itinerary aboard Rotterdam in May 2026, giving us current firsthand experience with both the destination and Holland America's Pinnacle-class ships.
The itinerary also generated good interest from our clients, and we booked several travelers on other departure dates. That is one reason we have continued to hold group space for both 2027 and 2028.
Why This Itinerary Works
Major capitals without changing hotels every few days.
Unpack once and move comfortably between some of Northern Europe's most interesting cities, with the ship providing a familiar home base between very different ports. It is an especially appealing way to experience this part of Europe for the first time.
