Marco Polo
Marco Polo

12 Night Cruise sailing from Leith roundtrip aboard Marco Polo.

The 22,080grt Bahamian flagged Marco Polo with her handsome traditional profile, beautiful teak decks and distinctive dark blue hull and deep draft is a fully stabilised and air conditioned classic ocean liner, extensively re-built in 1993 for the discerning premium cruise market.

She can accommodate up to 850 guests and has eight passenger decks, serviced by three main lobbies and four lifts. Her wide range of public facilities include; the impressive Seven Seas Restaurant offering two sitting dining or as an alternative dining experience, the more informal and stylish Raffles bistro.

There are five lounge areas comprising the theatre style Ambassador main show Lounge, the elegant Polo Lounge, the perfect venue for pre-dinner cocktails accompanied by the resident pianist, the Charleston Club up on Promenade deck, an ideal spot for the night owls or the relaxing Palm Court with wonderful panoramic ocean views and the extended Le Bar offering yet another comfortable lounge option.

Cruise Overview:
Without doubt this is a cruise to remember, taking you to six very different and very beautiful cities including richly glorious St. Petersburg and a transit of the Kiel Canal. You will experience highlights of Germany, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Sweden and Denmark - one city break after another - a kaleidoscope of history, heritage, culture and colour. This classic voyage of discovery aboard Marco Polo is one of our most popular itineraries.

Highlights of this cruise:

Copenhagen
From the grandeur of the Amalienborg Palace to the non-stop fun of Tivoli Gardens; from the superb shopping along the Strrget to the magnificent art treasures in the city museums, Denmark's capital really does have it all. Den Lille Havfrue - the Little Mermaid and Hamlet's Castle at Elsinore are added bonuses.

Helsinki
The Finnish capital typifies the country's reputation for the best in modern design and architecture. Splendid buildings old and new are shown to their best effect in an uncrowded setting of parks and woodlands. You can't miss the spectacular onion-domed Uspensky Cathedral which dominates the harbour.

St Petersburg
Russia's glorious second city and even our long stay here is barely sufficient to view even a proportion of the wonderful sights that this real Baltic Treasure has to offer. The Hermitage, and its outstanding art collection, the Peter & Paul Fortress, St Isaac's Cathedral, the battleship Aurora, whose guns signalled the start of the 1917 revolution, all vie for your attention in this city on the banks of the Neva River. A full programme of excursions, including evening options to the ballet or a folklore show, is operated here to help you make the most of your precious time.

Tallinn
A very attractive Baltic capital city, that is renowned for its friendliness and the welcome it provides for visitors. Estonia is now a modern forward thinking country but with a great pride in its history. Tallinn has a well-preserved medieval quarter, impressive fortified city walls and it is a delight to visit the quaintly named Long Leg Street or Tall Hermann, a 14th century watchtower.

Stockholm
The 700-year old capital of Sweden is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and is spread over 14 islands, connected by some 50 bridges. Wander around the enchanting medieval Gamla Stan, the original old town; visit the fascinating Wasa Museum, housing the world's oldest identified ship or just enjoy the fine restaurants and elegant shops of the Strandvagen.
