Publisher's Synopsis
In this edition of Cruise Travel Destinations, we reposition from Gibraltar in the Mediterranean Sea northwards to Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea. We explore the beaches of Normandy and D-Day to World Heritage Sites and some of Scandinavia's best-kept secrets. From the Kiel Canal and the warm heartfelt greetings of the German people to the land of the Vikings, Norway, a land of culture and magnificent nature. Copenhagen, birthplace of "The King of Fairy Tales," is a city with picturesque old houses and sailing ships. To reach Stockholm, cruise ships must sail along one of the largest archipelagos in the world, an exhilarating and memorable experience. Enjoy the beautiful city of Helsinki, a city with a sense of style and design, to the Old Town of Tallinn, which is one of the best-retained medieval towns in Europe. A journey to the Baltic would not be complete without a visit to the Imperial Russian cities of St. Petersburg and Moscow, both intriguing and historically significant cities in Europe, filled with ornate baroque palaces of myth and mystery. Allow this general interest travel guide with uniquely displayed pictorial illustration and storyboard wording to entice you to travel and explore, to dream of romantic and exciting destinations. This edition serves as yet another great snapshot of travel destinations. Cruise Travel Destination editions for South America and the Antarctic, and Asian ports to follow shortly.
