ST. PETERSBURG & BALTIC CRUISE! BLEND VOCATION WITH VACATION®

From the natural beauty of Stockholm's diverse scenery to the awe-inspiring beauty of Russian architecture, you will be treated to the cultural treasures of the north. Combine this cruise on Royal Caribbean’s Vision of the Seas with a two-night stay in Stockholm … built on 14 interconnected islands, and considered to be among the most beautiful cities in the world.

This trip will include roundtrip economy airfare from New York, transfers to and from the airport, hotel, and pier, two nights (including breakfast) in Stockholm before the cruise in a 4-star hotel, Stockholm tour, 7-night cruise in selected cabin category, all meals and a welcome cocktail reception, on board the Vision of the Seas. For an additional cost, you will also be able to earn up to 9.5 CE contact hours and a hospital visit in Stockholm, which are under development.

Sweden’s narrow cobblestone streets are lined with beautiful buildings dating from the thirteenth through the eighteenth centuries. Today, they house boutiques, restaurants, cafes and clubs. You will also see the spectacular architecture, gardens, and arbor side parks in Helsinki, Finland, and elaborate palaces, cathedrals and magnificent squares in St. Petersburg, Russia, one of the most European-influenced and spectacular cities in Russia. You’ll visit the largest city in the Baltic Sea, Riga, Latvia, boasting lavish beauty, timeless elegance and a restless fusion of old and new. You won’t want to miss one of Poland’s hot spots for contemporary art with plenty of exciting nightlife, spectacular restaurants and the most enchanting seaport since the Middle Ages in Gdansk. It’s eclectic blend of traditional German, Polish and modern influences, adds to its charm. Next, you’ll visit Sweden’s most alluring island resort and one of the sunniest vacation destinations with beautiful sandy beaches, moors and meadows.
