7 Night Cruise sailing from Copenhagen roundtrip aboard Costa Luminosa.

A new star has appeared in the Costa firmament: Costa Luminosa, a ship dazzling with light. Elegant, sophisticated and fitted out with the most precious materials, Costa Luminosa is a real jewel. Wonder at its mother-of-pearl, ebony, noble hardwood and mosaic fittings. More cabins with private balconies, new sports facilities such as a roller-skating rink and golf simulator, and innovative entertainment areas, but that is not all: experience the exclusive Samsara Spa and the sliding glass roof that enables you to enjoy life on deck in the evenings.

Highlights of this cruise:

Copenhagen
The capital of Denmark is undoubtedly the most important city in this country that stretches along the Baltic Sea and has just over 5 million inhabitants. Copenhagen lives in the legend of the Little Mermaid, the most famous character in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales: seeing the statue depicting the beautiful mermaid, the symbol of the city, is always one of the most exciting moments of any visit.

Tallinn
Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, which used to be called Reval, has two distinct parts: the city is built partially on a hill slightly inland from the coast, whereas the oldest part, which has been inhabited since the Middle Ages, is closer to the port. Tallinn is famous for its very active open-air theatres and its art galleries, and every year it hosts a world-famous music festival.

St Petersburg
It is impossible not to be seduced by the splendour of Saint Petersburg, a monumental city with a rich tradition of history and art. Start your visit at the Hermitage, the famous complex comprising five buildings, commissioned by Catherine the Great in 1764, where more than three million items are kept, including Egyptian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Chinese and Indian archaeological artefacts.

Helsinki
Everything in Helsinki leads to the port: it is here that the city, known as the "daughter of the Baltic", was born, giving sustenance to families and populations. Its traditional lifestyle, a result of its history with a sprinkling of legend, blends interestingly with its current layout, which has revolutionary architecture and almost futuristic suburbs.

Stockholm
Stockholm is a city with a vibrant cultural life and the majority of the country's cultural institutions such as theatres, opera and museums. In the "Venice of the North" there are two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Drottningholm Castle and the Skogskyrkogľrden Cemetery. Stockholm has also been European City of Culture. Every year Nobel Prizes for literature, physics, chemistry and medicine are awarded in the course of a formal ceremony.
