Nordic Escape – Oslo & Copenhagen

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Southampton on August 22, 2026 visits Kristiansand, Oslo, Copenhagen and Skagen and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. European capital cities, cobblestoned old towns, and those endless summer evenings in the North. People come back from this cruise talking about Skagen: Where two seas meet at Denmark's tip. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 8 restaurants on Sky Princess, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Southampton itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. 4 ports, 2 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
