Explora's name for it: An Extended Journey through Nordic Capitals & Baltic Culture
The itinerary, port by port
12 calls over 13 nights, round-trip from Copenhagen. Open any port for my full day-ashore guide, what to see, when to go, and how the day actually runs.
Getting there: Flights to Copenhagen (CPH) open around June 2027, about 11 months before you sail. I track that window for booked clients and flag it the moment it is worth booking. When to book your flights →
