About This Cruise
The 9 Night Scandinavia And Northern Europe is a 9-night one-way itinerary aboard Cunard Queen Victoria. You board in Kiel and disembark in Hamburg, calling at 7 ports across 5 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Germany (Kiel), Finland (Helsinki), Estonia (Tallinn), Sweden (Stockholm, Visby), Denmark (Copenhagen) and Germany (Hamburg).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Kiel and home from Hamburg, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
