Have wanted to cruise the Baltic for some time, this cruise fit out needs with regards to ports and cruise date! We had a wonderful experience from the embarkation in Copenhagen to the disembarkation! We really enjoyed the freestyle concept but would have liked a few more theme nights with regards to activities and dining! We found the staff efficient even when we had an unexpected sea day due to weather and not being able to get into the port of Helsinki. Within 2 hours, our account was credited with the excursion we weren't able to rake and a revised itinerary for the day was delivered to each stateroom. We had a fantastic cabin steward, Tedi, he went above and beyond. Making sure our room was comfortable for us!

Our 2 favourite ports were Copenhagen and Stockholm. In Stockholm, we took the shuttle to the city and had 8 hours exploring on our own; our favourite way to explore a port. In Copenhagen, we would recommend a canal tour and a trip through Tivoli Gardens. Our highlight of St. Petersburg was the ballet Swan Lake!
