Starting from

LEITH, EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND → HELSINKI

18 Nights on Star Explorer

How do you describe an itinerary where every port is a star? All the Scandinavian “musts” are here – half-timbered houses, charming small villages where most cruise ships don’t visit, stunning Norwegian fjords. But there’s so much more. Discover the dunes of the Lithuanian Sahara, a Danish vineyard, Norway’s forest nymphs. A World War II concentration camp, Cold War missile silos, a Viking warship, a rock church. In Gdansk, Poland, explore the roots of Solidarity, and a town where weathervanes seem to cluster together like schools of fish. All this mixed up with delicious microbreweries, exhilarating outdoor adventures, and shops that entice with everything from honey-colored amber to colorful Dala horses.
