12 nights - Iceland's Natural Wonders - from/to Hamburg

About this cruise

This is the kind of cruise where you actually have time to go back to a port highlight you missed the first time. 12 nights from Hamburg on August 14, 2026, visiting Kirkwall, Reykjavik, Akureyri and Invergordon. Port days and sea days take turns, which is about as well-paced as a cruise itinerary gets. Scottish Highlands at one end, Normandy coast at the other. Celtic meets French. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on Mein Schiff 2. 8 restaurants come with the fare, plus 3 more when you feel like treating yourself. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
