Travel provider: Go Next
Discover the beauty of Scandinavia and the Baltics on this ten-night journey aboard Oceania Cruises’ Marina.
From Copenhagen to Stockholm, this voyage packs in the history and culture of ten countries who traded borders throughout the centuries. Hop on a historic train ride through the German countryside, or see the Berlin Wall. Head into Gdańsk where the Museum of the Second World War is second to none and the waterfront cafés are the perfect spot for a pierogi nosh.
From Klaipėda to Riga to Tallinn, get a taste of Baltic heritage: old Lithuanian fishing villages, grand boulevards of German Art Nouveau buildings, artisans working amber, and winding walks through moody medieval streetscapes. A voyage highlight: two days in St. Petersburg. Cruise its canals and see its onion-domed cathedrals and palaces.
Before bidding farewell to Marina, stop off in Helsinki for must-see modern architecture and souvenir snapshots at the open-air market.
