Estonia Cruises

Discover this beautiful Baltic nation of islands, medieval cities, and unique culture.

Estonia might not be the first destination you think of when it comes to taking an ocean cruise. Those in search of natural scenery will set off for Norway, to explore the fjords and the mountains. And travellers longing for history and architectural beauty will set sail for Sweden. But Northern Europe has plenty to offer outside of Scandinavia, and Estonia is a stellar example of this.

Estonia’s medieval capital Tallinn is home to a number of historic sights, including the gorgeous Gothic Town hall standing tall in the city’s main square, the artistic gems of Niguliste Church, and the gilded Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. The UNESCO-listed heart of Tallinn is best explored on foot. Of course, you cannot go past Peter the Great’s stunning Kadriorg Palace, the 18th-century Baroque gem.

Combine a Baltic cruise from the neighbouring cities of Copenhagen, Riga, or Kotka, with your visit to Estonia. On board, you can treat yourself to an impressive range of British and International cuisine every day, a programme bursting with evening entertainment, including cabaret, stand-up, dancing and live music, as well as full use of on-board leisure amenities, including swimming pools, jacuzzis and gym.
