The 21-day cruise aboard the Rotterdam was a true grand tour of Northern Europe, featuring an itinerary that touches elegant cities and picturesque ports. After departing from Rotterdam, we visited charming Norwegian destinations such as Sandnes, Kristiansand, and Oslo, before heading to the lively city of Copenhagen. A brief return stop in the Netherlands was followed by a journey through Aarhus, Warnemünde, Klaipėda, Riga, Tallinn, Stockholm, and Kiel — a continuous blend of capital cities, history, and stunning natural landscapes. What truly stood out on this extended cruise was, without a doubt, the cuisine on board. Every restaurant on the Rotterdam offered a unique dining experience — from premium steaks and fresh seafood to refined interpretations of Asian flavors. A highlight was the Lido Market buffet, which featured daily regional specialties reflecting the cruise route: smoked Norwegian salmon, Baltic herring, Danish pastries, and much more.
