An enchanting municipality at the meeting point of Lake Mälaren and the Baltic Sea, the Swedish capital is one of the world’s great maritime cities. Stockholm’s maritime doorstep is a magnificent archipelago of more than 24,000 islands and islets–many just big enough to support a single cottage. As you yacht toward the 13th-century "city that floats on water,” landmarks such as Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral) and Three Crowns Tower come into view. The medieval Gamla Stan district is the historic core of the original Stadsholmen Island settlement.
The Hanseatic walled trading town of Visby on the island of Gotland dates from the Viking Age, formed on a shore with a natural harbor, sheltered by steep cliff formations. This fairytale locale is a UNESCO World Heritage site, known for its well-preserved town wall and medieval fortification and towers. The town’s abundant churches include St. Mary’s Cathedral and the medieval ruins of St. Nicolai and St. Karin.
History lives on the gentle Baltic winds that carry Bornholm. The island’s fortified round churches and archaic ruins are its legacy and strike sharp contrast to the contemporary beach resorts. Akirkeby, at the island’s center, is the largest and oldest town. Founded in 1346, it was a popular medieval spiritual center. Stroll Gudhjelm to admire the colorful seaside town. Wisps from smokehouse chimneys fill the air with the scent of cured herring. At the town’s Oluf Host Museum, many canvases depict local scenes.
Rügen is the name of an archipelago of 30 small islands and peninsulas that jut into the Baltic Sea off Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Germany’s largest island, also known as Rügen, was an Imperial resort. The nostalgic Belle Epoque legacy lingers in its tiny fishing villages, secluded beaches, and pleasant tree-lined avenues. The seaside resort of Sassnitz is your gateway to the nearby Jasmund National Park with its unique chalk cliffs. Enjoy the island’s well-maintained trails or take a bicycle and pedal across the countryside.
Located on the Baltic Sea at the estuary of the Warnow River, the seaside resort of Warnemünde is your gateway to Berlin, Germany’s vibrant capital. Notable for its lively cultural scene, highlights in and around Berlin include the baroque Charlottenburg Palace and 13th-century St. Nicholas Church. The Berlin Wall, built after World War II to divide the city, was torn down in 1989, but monuments such as Brandenburg Gate and Checkpoint Charlie exist today as notable reminders of the city’s history. Berlin boasts many theaters and museums, including the Pergamon Museum, showcasing a collection of classical antiquities and Hellenistic art, including the famed Greek Altar of Zeus.
There’s much to treasure in glorious Copenhagen, one of Europe’s most beautiful capital cities. No visit is complete without indulging your inner child at the Tivoli Gardens, a fantastical amusement park and pleasure garden that melds the atmosphere of 19th-century Europe with recreations of Far East architecture, all amid wonderfully manicured grounds. After paying your respects to the city’s iconic statue of Hans Christian Andersen’s Little Mermaid, shop to your heart’s content on Strøget, an elegant lane flanked by sophisticated boutiques housed in graceful buildings. Although its exterior is handsomely austere, the interior rooms of the 18th-century Christiansborg Palace are sure to dazzle you with their extravagant stucco ceilings, brilliant chandeliers and gilded furniture. Fast forward to the 19th century at the spectacular Copenhagen Botanical Garden, where innumerable plant species are showcased in absolutely stunning historical glasshouses. Should you have the stomach for it, take in the entire city from the tower of the Church of our Saviour, which must be reached via vertiginous exterior spiral staircase. No matter how you’ve spent your day, a terrific place to wind down is the quayside Nyhavn district, where colorful historic buildings host an eclectic choice of cafés, bars and restaurants.
Skagen sits at the northernmost point of Denmark, tucked in a peninsula where the North Sea meets the Baltic Sea. This remote coastal town, settled in 1400s as a fishing village, provides stunning landscapes of white-sand beaches, unwavering grassland, and verdant forest. Notable is its Old Church, which since 1775 has been buried in sand, and the Skagen Museum, holding the impressionist works of the Skagen Painters, who drew inspiration from the area’s abundant natural light. To the south lies Råbjerg Mile, Northern Europe’s most prominent migrating sand dunes.
Norway is a land steeped in myth, where irascible gods armed with frost and lightning once inspired Viking clans to plunder foreign lands. These days, genteel customs imported from mainland Europe have softened the country’s hard edges, but traces of an unruly past still abound. The exceptional museums dotting the Bygdøy Peninsula hold some of the city’s foremost attractions, including a thousand-year-old longship that was preserved in mud and the 12th-century Gol Stave Church, an exemplar of Norway’s distinctive wood sanctuaries. No less fascinating is a visit to the 1892 Fram, a legendary ship revered for her vital role in early polar explorations. To witness the evolution of Oslo’s soul, contrast battle-hardened Akershus Fortress, a ruggedly elegant citadel wrapped in nearly impregnable ramparts, with the neoclassical Royal Palace, whose formal exterior encloses sumptuously appointed rooms. You might wish to view Edvard Munch’s iconic The Scream, which hangs in the outstanding Norwegian National Gallery amid priceless European and Scandinavian masterworks. In expansive Frogner Park, wander among Gustav Vigeland’s thought-provoking sculptures, and if you’ve worked up an appetite, choose among the many restaurants and cafés lining the charming waterfront district of Aker Brygge.

Ronne, Bornholm - Ronne Stroll
Description
Explore Rønne's rich history from Viking origins to WWII "bomb-houses" and 18th-century architecture. Visit Skt. Nikolaj Church, Store Torv, and Erichsens Gaard museum on a guided stroll through charming cobblestone streets.
The origins of the city of Rønne can be traced back to the Viking Age when people first settled around the natural harbor. However, it did not evolve into a proper town until the 1300’s when the town first gained market town rights from the crown. Your knowledgeable local guide will meet you at the pier and escort you into town where you will explore the secrets and charms of this quaint Baltic town.
The town boasts many exceptionally fine half-timbered houses from the 18th and 19th centuries. In between them you will find the so-called “bomb-houses” – brick houses built to replace those that were bombed by the Russian Air Force in May 1945 after the Germans refused to surrender to the Red Army. To help the rebuilding of Rønne and other towns on the island, Sweden donated 300 wooden houses – most of which still are used today as homes.
Walk through the winding cobblestone streets with your knowledgeable local guide and enjoy the quaint and tranquil atmosphere of Rønne. Along the way you will pass the oldest church in town, the Skt. Nikolaj Church, and Store Torv, the central square – the former military parade grounds. See the oldest, still active, provincial theatre in Denmark from 1823 and many other notable landmarks. Your walk will also include a visit to Erichsens Gaard - a cultural-historical museum housed in one of the best kept commoners’ houses in Rønne from 1806. Step back in time as you stroll through the immaculately kept historical rooms and sprawling garden. Take a seat and enjoy a well-deserved refreshment, before continuing.
At the conclusion of the tour, you are free to return to your ship or remain downtown (time permitting) for further independent exploration.Notes

Bornholm is a picturesque Tiny Baltic Island belonging to Denmark and on this scenic tour through the picturesque farmlands will showcase the highlights. Travelling by coach you will enjoy the scenery of the coastline enroute to Hammerhus, a historic fortress on the northern tip of Bornholm. It is the largest castle ruins in Northern Europe.
The oldest part was built in the early 12th century to consolidate the power over the island held by the Archbishop of Lund obtained through an agreement with the Danish King, Svend Grathe. For the next 500 years Hammershus was the castle for the various rulers of the island. Hammershus was rebuilt and expanded on several occasions. In 1743 Hammershus was finally abandoned as a stronghold. Visit the new visitors center as well as the ruins and be prepared for a surprise along the way.
The next stop is at Melstedgaard Agricultural Museum. The museum used to be a farm and has been there since the 17th century and now replicates old-fashioned farming and food culture from Bornholm.

Here you will learn about Bornholm as a culinary island and Melstedgaard as a self-sufficient farm.

After this visit continue across the island through Almindingen – one of the largest forest areas in Denmark for the goal – Oesterlars Roundchurch– one of the four round churches to be found on Bornholm (where you will find half the total number of round churches in Denmark).Notes

Skagen - Skagen Stroll & Buried Church
Description
Immerse yourself in the historic charm of Skagen's picturesque fishing village, on this private guided excursion tracing its roots back to the 13th century. Wander through the bustling harbor, admire the colorful wooden houses, and uncover the buried church of Saint Lawrence, a testament to the village's rich maritime history.
Visit the small, picturesque fishing village of Skagen, Denmark's northernmost town. Its origins can be traced back to the 13th century. For hundreds of years, the fishing trade alone sustained this small community. With your guide, enjoy a stroll through the bustling fishing harbor. Admire the colorful wooden houses along the waterfront and see the rows of traditional fishing boats bobbing in the water. Continue your walk on a beautiful nature path to a true phenomenon created by nature – the buried church.
The church, named after Saint Lawrence, the seafarers’ and Skagen’ s patron saint, was probably built in the second half of the 1300s and was at that time the largest church in the region. In the 1500s the sand drift period began, and the sand reached the church at the end of the 1700s. In the end, the congregation had to dig their way into the church. The struggle against the sand drift continued until 1795 when the church was closed by royal decree. Today, only the tower of the ancient church is visible.
After your visit to this rare sight, you will venture back towards the city and to the Coastal Museum, or Kystmuseet for a refreshing cup of coffee and Danish pastry. The venue for this refreshment stop is an open air museum, where some of the outside can be seen from the street. This open-air museum depicts the history of Skagen and has a replica of an old house. Enjoy a short break here before starting the return walk through the city back to Skagen Marina, brimming with boutique shops and quaint cafés and restaurants. Enjoy a photo stop before returning to your yacht.Notes
