12 nights - Baltic Sea Intensive - from/to Kiel

About this cruise

A 12-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Kiel on June 13, 2027 and visits Gdynia (Gdansk), Klaipeda and Tallinn, with additional stops along the Baltic. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 6 borders through the Baltic: Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Sweden and Denmark. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Visby alone is worth the trip, A Viking-age jewel behind medieval walls. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff 1 takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Worth booking. That's the short version.
