10 nights - Summer Dreams in the Baltic Sea - from/to Kiel

About this cruise

You board in Kiel on August 1, 2027 for 10 nights visiting Klaipeda, Gdynia (Gdansk), Tallinn, Helsinki, Stockholm and Visby, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. It's a proper Baltic tour: 5 countries, from Lithuania to Sweden. People come back from this cruise talking about Tallinn: A medieval fairy tale on the Baltic shore. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Mein Schiff 1 has 11 dining spots on board, most of them included. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. 6 ports, 5 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
