Crystal Symphony, 18 Night Baltic & Northern Europe ex Copenhagen, Denmark to Reykjavik, Iceland

The Danish capital of Copenhagen is the starting point for our 18-night Nordic adventure, which takes us first to Aarhus, a city that artfully blends the old and new. Sweden’s Gothenburg is our next port of call, celebrated for its picturesque canals and succulent seafood. We cross to Norway now, sailing to Arendal, famed for its watersports, Haugesund, with its Viking history and coastal walks, and Maloy, surrounded by stunning natural beauty. At Kristiansund, eat the traditional stew, bacalao, from fish caught in local waters, before a relaxing day at sea brings us to Tromso, gateway to the Arctic and land of the midnight sun. Hammerfest fascinates with its mountains and sandy beaches, before we reach Honningsvag, the world’s northernmost city, where the North Cape (Nordkapp) teems with puffins and cormorants. The next day brings us to Alta and the iconic Northern Lights Cathedral. Unwind during a day at sea, before admiring the tiny volcanic island of Jan Mayen. After another sea day, discover the remote communities of Akureyri, in northern Iceland. Reaching the Icelandic fishing town of Isafjordur, take time to soak up its pristine landscapes before we return to Reykjavík for two days’ exploring the vibrant Icelandic capital.

It begins the moment you embark. An immersion into luxurious wonder. An extraordinary sense of well-being. The Crystal Symphony is one of the most spacious and luxurious cruise ships at sea. Onboard amenities feature grand lounges, a full-service fitness facility, exciting casino, a lavish spa, expansive decks, a swimming pool with an extra-large Jacuzzi, award-winning cuisine and entertainment. To top it off, exquisitely-appointed staterooms, more than half of which offer private verandahs. Considered to be the finest shipboard staff afloat, it is their goal to anticipate your every need and to make this a vacation to remember.
