Cruising the Mediterranean
Villages cling to the craggy islands and steep coastline as they have for hundreds of years, whitewashed walls bright in the sunlight, ancient olive trees and vineyards climbing the terraced hillsides nearby. From the noble historic center of Athens, to the dynamic blending of old and new in Venice, Rome, Istanbul and Barcelona, to the elegant glamor of Monte Carlo, the Mediterranean is as beautiful, romantic, and rewarding as any destination on earth.

Cruising the British Isles
History and literature come alive as you visit the great cities and villages of the British Isles. From the deck of your ship, see the cathedrals and bridges that have inspired poetry, the white cliffs of Dover, the dramatic seaside towns of Ireland and Scotland. Visit the famous museums, libraries, shops and pubs of London, Dublin, and Edinburgh and follow your heart to the roots of your family tree – or the landscape of your imagination.

Cruising the Baltic
Along the wooded shores of the Baltic sea are clusters of islands, fortresses and great cities unlike any other. Sweden's capital, Stockholm, is a necklace of 14 islands strung together by more than 50 bridges. Park-filled Helsinki, Finland, is known worldwide as the birthplace of great modern architects and is filled with their visionary structures. The shops of contemporary Copenhagen display stunning wares. From its islands in the Neva River, St. Petersburg soars into a skyline of remarkable onion domes. The Baltic is incomparable.

Cruising the Norwegian Fjords and Western Europe
Stretching beneath gloriously long summer days, the deeply-carved fjords spread their palette of blues and greens – the steep forested shoreline giving way to pale glacier-charged waters. A profusion of wildflowers blooms in every patch of soil. Waterfalls tumble from the heights. Walruses and whales cruise the waterways. Distinguished cities and tradition-drenched towns display their distinctive wares on cobbled streets lined with churches and abbeys. This is a landscape of mystery and exquisite beauty.
