Harwich, England
Harwich's strategic location made it a very important port in 19th century Essex with three batteries and history at every turn. The old town has preserved many historic buildings, so be sure to catch the Electric Palace cinema, one of the oldest purpose-built cinemas with its silent screen, original projection room and ornamental frontage.
Oslo, Norway
Sail through the Oslo Fjord, and you sail back in time to 1050. All of this historic capital city's lavish history can be uncovered at the Viking Ship Museum and the Kon-Tiki museum, which serves as home to the Fram, a famous polar - exploration ship. Cross the drawbridge to the formerly impenetrable Akershus Castle and meander through the famous Vigeland Sculpture Park. In Oslo, don't forget to preserve your memories before returning to the present day.
Stockholm, Sweden
No fewer than fifty bridges connect this Swedish capital's fourteen islands to its mainland. Undoubtedly, this was to ensure that the Swedes could enjoy every single inch of this magnificent city steeped in parks, museums, and palaces - the most famous being the 600-room Royal Palace. Make your way through the Gamla Stan, or Old Town, packed with historic buildings, shops and cafés.
Helsinki, Finland
Occupying a peninsula and several islands, Helsinki's unique location may be overshadowed by the capital city's stunning meld of old and new structures and some of the most spectacular bays you could hope to find. Strolling down broad, tree-lined streets, don't forget to take notice of the stunning neoclassically designed architecture in Senate Square.
St.Petersburg, Russia
St. Petersburg was reportedly built to resemble such western cities as London, Paris and Vienna. Although, once you see its regal palaces and many vast public squares, you'll agree there's nothing quite like this lovely city. If you're fortunate enough to find yourself in St. Petersburg in June, revel in the city's famous "white nights," when the boundless night sky is never completely dark.
Tallinn, Estonia
The Estonians may well have coined the phrase "If it isn't broken, don't fix it," as such is the case with the northern coastal town of Tallinn. It has remained remarkably unchanged since its founding in 1154, enabling visitors to enjoy architectural marvels of year past, like the soaring towers of Toompea Castle and the exquisite Russian Orthodox Cathedral. The delightful exception being the pink Parliament building, visible from Palace Square.
Copenhagen, Denmark
When surrounded by a sea of blooming flowers in Tivoli Gardens or while admiring Copenhagen's famous Little Mermaid statue, it's virtually impossible to find yourself in the capital of Denmark without a smile on your face. Amalienborg Palace, where you can catch the changing of the guards, and Kronberg Castle, the famous setting of Shakespeare's Hamlet, are just a few of the many points of interest available to you in this former humble fishing village.
Debarkation begins at approximately 9 AM. We recommend flights no earlier than 11 AM. Itinerary is tentative and subject to port approval and change.
Stateroom Sweet Stateroom
When you finally return to your stateroom you'll find all the comforts of home, and a view you've never imagined. Most have floor-to-ceiling windows opening onto beautiful private balconies. And Celebrity's superb stateroom attendants will make you feel comfortable, special, and attend to your every need.
