Sweet like Scandi
A summer Scandinavian cruise offers the chance to see the midnight sun and so much more.
Ultra-cool, super-friendly, and always fascinating, Scandinavia is one of the world's favourite places to cruise. With spectacular fjords, fascinating Viking history and some amazing architectural gems, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden offer a voyage of discovery you'll remember forever.
And we haven't even mentioned Tivoli Gardens and Insta-friendly Little Mermaid, Stockholm's historic cobbled streets or the fun-filled Abba museum.
With so much to see and do, you'll be looking for a port-heavy itinerary that makes the most of your time in this wonderful part of Europe, with visits to classic destinations as well as some lesser-known gems. And if you visit in the summer, you'll also get the chance to experience the famous midnight sun – something to look back on when the nights start drawing in back at home.
