The harbor offers amazing views and a maze of wharves and canals, along with towering spires make for a beautiful sight. Take a stroll and duck into one of the pubs or eateries along the way. Only three pre World War II buildings in the city centre have survived and are worth a look - city hall, St. Laurence church and the White House. Explore the Museum Boymans van Beuningen, which houses a unique collec... ### Day 2: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 3: Oslo **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM At the head of Oslofjord, Norway's handsome capital is the logical first stop in Scandinavia. Thor Heyerdahl's raft, Kon Tiki, recalls a voyage between Easter Island and Tahiti to prove a theory about the earliest colonization of Oceania. Watch the changing of the palace guard; ferry to the open-air Folke Museum with its 12th-century stave church ### Day 4: Copenhagen **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM Copenhagen is one of the easiest European capitals to fall in love with. The sights of old buildings, cobbled streets and the tower- and turret-dotted skyline lend fairy-tale charm—this was, after all, the home of author Hans Christian Andersen. But make no mistake: This is a thoroughly modern city with international clout. Restaurants around the world draw inspiration from the New Nordic cuisine pioneered by Noma and other Copenhagen restaurants, while Danish design from this century and t... ### Day 5: Copenhagen **Arrives:** 11:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Copenhagen is one of the easiest European capitals to fall in love with.

But this picturesque town of winding canals and cobbled streets has many of the capital’s charms without its crowds of tourists. As well as dictating its waterside confines, Århus’s location on the east coast of the Jutland Peninsula yields a rich natural bounty that the city’s restaurateurs have exploited with aplomb. Dishes such as caviar and wood smoke at Frederikshøj, or rye and rabbit r... ### Day 7: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 8: Dover **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Dover, in the county of Kent in southeast England, has understandably been one of the most important ports of entry to the country for centuries, given its location on the English Channel across from France. The famous White Cliffs of Dover greet you as you arrive, and the city has a number of historic sights, including a medieval castle. For many travelers, however, it is primarily a gateway to London. Few places can compete with England’s capital for sheer energy, atmosphere and variety. Lon... ### Day 9: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 10: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 11: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 12: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 13: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 14: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 15: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 16: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 17: San Juan **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM Massive El Morro Fortress guards Old San Juan, while the benevolent Indian spirit Yuquiyu keeps watch over the entire island from the highest peak in the rain forest. By night there are roulette wheels to spin and fiery flamenco shows to catch. Sample shore excursions: Old San Juan Historic Walking Tour; El Yunque Rain Forest Drive; World Heritage Fortress & Art Museum. ### Day 18: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 19: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 20: Fort Lauderdale **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM There is an abundance of things to see and do in the Ft.
