Most Baltic Cruises leave the UK from the port of Dover and tend, depending on the number of nights, to visit some of Northern Europe’s great cities including Copenhagen in Denmark, Stockholm in Sweden, Gdansk in Poland, Oslo in Norway, Tallinn in Estonia, Helsinki in Finland and the majority of will include the beautiful city of St Petersburg in Russia.
These cruises are not just for those with an interest in history and culture; there is something for every taste. The cruising season for Baltic cruises is similar to the Norwegian Fjords, from May to September with the peak season being in July and August.
These cruises tend to last about ten days, though a modern addition to cruising is the overnight stay along side to get more experience of a port. With Baltic Cruises this tends to be in St Petersburg and each over night adds a day to the cruise.
