THE BALTICS AND NORTHERN EUROPE
The sails of Viking longships once rode the wind here. These are coastal lands that relied on the ocean to survive, woven together by ancient sea-faring routes, pure landscapes of rugged beauty and natural poetry.
On the pine-covered island of Gotland, you’ll find the beautiful walled city of Visby, its black-towered cathedral appearing like a chess piece amid the red roofs. In Iceland, discover a vast wilderness dotted with natural wonders such as the Goðafoss Waterfall, steeped in local folklore. The ebb and flow of maritime history can be felt from Stornoway to Helsinki, from Gdansk to Rouen, but these are also places with vibrant contemporary lives. Copenhagen’s restaurant scene is world-class, with pioneering chefs foraging for ingredients to reinvent Scandinavian cuisine; Amsterdam’s modern art museums help portray the city beyond Van Gogh; while in Stockholm, history and tradition blend seamlessly with cutting-edge design and creative innovation.
THE CRYSTAL DIFFERENCE

This partnership between two leading travel brands ushered in a new era of luxury travel on land and at sea.
