Description
An exciting health and wellness experience: regenerate your body in the stunning setting of a historic 14th-century residence
converted into an elegant hotel, with an invigorating walk in the forest in keeping with the philosophy of Nordic walking with an
instructor, followed by a relaxing and purifying sauna.
What we will see
A stop at the beautiful historic residence of Haikko Manor
Nordic walking with an instructor
Choose from basic or advanced level
Traditional sauna in a seaside cottage
Light refreshment
Sightseeing tour of Helsinki
Photo stop at the stunning Senate Square
What we will do
We arrive at the beautiful historic residence of Haikko Manor, now an elegant hotel that dates back to the 14th century and is
surrounded by wonderful grounds with large well-kept lawns and a real forest just behind it.
During our visit to Haikko Manor, we will have the opportunity to try a sporting activity typical of the northern regions: so-
called Nordic walking, which uses special walking sticks to which force must be applied with every step.
With the help of an instructor, we will choose the level most suitable for us, either basic, within reach of everyone, or
advanced, which also includes hillwalking. In both cases, we will breathe in the pure air of the forest deeply and reactivate our
body’s energy, immersing ourselves in contact with nature.
After the walk, we will enjoy a well-deserved relaxing break in a traditional sauna, built inside a pretty cottage just a few steps
from the sea, allowing the heat to purify us from toxins and give us a fabulous feeling of relaxation.
We cannot leave Haikko Manor before having enjoyed a light refreshment: there is no point ignoring our stomachs and all that
exercise will no doubt have made us a little peckish!
Our excursion will end with a sightseeing tour of Helsinki, discovering some of the capital’s most interesting sights.
We drive along Mannerheimintie, one of the main roads, and admire the Parliament building, setting of many crucial events in
the country’s national and political life.
Before returning to the ship, we make a photo stop in the scenic Senate Square, overlooked by the stunning Lutheran
Cathedral, an imposing Neoclassical building completely finished in white marble.
This excursion includes a guide for every 20 guests.
We recommend that you book early because only a limited number of places are available.

We cross the Senate Square overlooked by the superb Lutheran cathedral, an imposing Neoclassical cathedral completely

Porvoo, historic quarter and commercial warehouses
What we will do
After setting off from Helsinki port, we will pass a series of monuments of national historical interest: the Parliament, the
National Museum, the new Opera House, the Olympic Stadium, built in 1952, and Finlandia Hall, a unique conference and
events centre designed by the famous architect Alvar Aalto, who was also responsible for the church in Riola di Vergato
(Bologna) in the 1970s
We will admire the beautiful Finnish countryside en route to the ancient town of Porvoo, following a panoramic road along the
coast.
Porvoo is the second oldest town in Finland and is a gem of Finnish architectural history, particularly in the residential area of
Old Porvoo, a picturesque neighbourhood built on a hill near the Porvoonjoki River. The houses were built in keeping with
medieval ideas about urban planning and represent the harmonious coexistence of old and new. Porvoo's symbol is its
charming red houses built on the river bank; they were once warehouses where goods, products and exotic delicacies from
distant lands were kept.
We will take a stroll through the historic centre, full of shops selling local delicacies and handicrafts. For example, the depots
near the former station are home to a shop that is impossible to leave empty handed: gifts, souvenirs, local handicrafts,
organic food and cakes, all top-quality, so much so that it is considered by many to be a tourist attraction in its own right!
We will set off once again for Helsinki, passing through the beautiful countryside.
The trip to Porvoo will be approximately 1 hour.

Sibelius Park, Passio Musicae
What we will do
Once we have left the port, we will head towards Senate Square and then on to Market Square and Kaivopuisto Park, the
oldest and most famous park in Helsinki that is extremely popular with locals.
Along the Mannerheimintie, we will visit the Lutheran church of Temppeliaukio, the Rock Church, a modern masterpiece built
inside a rocky hill, an unmissable example of rock architecture.
The Mannerheimintie is rightly considered Helsinki's main street. Staying on it throughout, we will be able to see: the
Parliament, the scene of many crucial moments in the political life of the nation, the National Museum, Finlandia Hall, an
important conference centre that plays host to all kinds of events and is well-known for its famous architect Alvar Aalto, and
finally the new Opera House.
Passing the Olympic Stadium, famous for hosting the 1952 Olympics, we will finally reach the controversial Passio Musicae, a
monument dedicated to the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius and an abstract structure made of 600 empty steel tubes that
resemble organ pipes. The meaning behind this monument is still very much up for discussion among the Finns: there are
those who say that the sculptor Eila Hiltunen intended to recall the Northern Lights; others think it looks like ice crystals, some
think it is a giant organ, while others find references to Nordic forests in it. It appears that the artist had no particular intention
in mind, and, while commemorating the life and works of Sibelius, she also wanted visitors to be able to bring their own
meaning to the work.
Before returning to the ship, we will have some free time for shopping.

Rivers and canals of St. Petersburg
A glimpse of the most significant monuments
What we will do
We will set off on our cruise of the city's rivers and canals to avoid the rush-hour traffic and we will admire the most significant
monuments from a privileged viewpoint. The canals actually help to create a unique atmosphere as they reflect the city's
golden domes and fairy-tale buildings.
Known across the world as the 'Venice of the North' because of its geographic, structural and architectural resemblance to the
magnificent Italian city on the lagoon, St. Petersburg is the most important port in Russia and is one of Europe's main cultural
hubs. The city was built over 42 islands and was developed around a complex network and canals and rivers (69 in total)
stretching 300 km. These canals also mark the borders of the different districts. St. Petersburg's classic low-rise architecture
often allows the incredible city views to be enjoyed from the water.
Sailing along the water, we will learn about the history of thriving imperial Russia, when St. Petersburg was the capital, and
admire the various buildings, monuments and architectural styles that typify the different periods.
Space is limited, so please reserve early.
The boat has indoor and outdoor seats. In the case of adverse weather conditions, you are advised to wear suitable clothing.
In case of bad weather conditons, for safety reasons, the cruise will be conducted only along the Neva River (not entering
smaller rivers and channels) or cancelled and replaced by a panoramic tour of the city.
This tour is not suitable for wheelchairs.

What we will do
We will begin our tour hopping on-board the coach in the city centre: we will pass in front of Saint Isaac's Cathedral, boasting a
Neoclassical style and a 21.8 metre gold dome making it the tallest cathedral in the world, and the Bronze Horseman, a
monument dedicated to Peter the Great, standing at 6 metres and resting on an enormous granite monolithic stone. The
square surrounding the monument (Senate Square, also known as Decembrist Square) is a favourite spot amongst couples
getting married to take photos.
From here, we will set off on our walk along the Admiralty and, from the area opposite the Neva River, we can admire the
State University (founded in 1724 upon the order of Tsar Peter the Great of Russia, and one of the oldest and most
prestigious universities in Russia), the Academy of Sciences and the Kunstkamera, also known as the 'Chamber of curiosities',
a name preferred by Peter the Great to describe his collection of anatomical preparations and scientific instruments.
We will continue our tour with a visit to Palace Square (one of St. Petersburg's main squares and theatre in 1917 at the end
of the Russian Revolution) and walk along Nevsky thoroughfare St. Petersburg's main road, which is 4 km long, which crosses
the city from the Admirality to the Alexander Nevski monastery, the heart of the shopping area and is flanked by elegant
buildings, amongst which the Winter Palace. From here, we will arrive at the Gostiny Dvor metro station.
The last stage on our tour includes an unmissable tour of the famous subway of St. Petersburg, also called 'metro' in Russian.
Initial plans overseeing the creation of the metro date back to 1899, but were not implemented owing to the Russian
Revolution of 1917 and the outbreak of the Second World War. In 1941, when works began, the then USSR was due to join
the war and works were suspended, and resumed at the end of the conflict. The first line opened on the 15 November 1955

and linked up the city's 5 railway stations. From the moment it was opened, it was acclaimed as one of the best in the world,
not only owing to efficiency and cleanliness, but also for its architecture. It is presently one of the fastest, safest and most
comfortable modes of transport in the world. Most stations are equipped with lifts; the older stations have been richly
decorated with coloured granite, various colour marble, stainless steel, bronze, aluminium, synthetic materials, glass, various
mosaics, bas reliefs and sculptures, whilst newer stations boast a modern and simple design, which are however just as
striking. Every station is unique in this sense. The metropolitan of St. Petersburg is also one of the deepest in the world, with
some stations excavated at more than 100 metres deep.

Yusupov family that Rasputin was killed in 1916 in a masterful power play.
The palace interior has been carefully restored and is partially used as a cultural centre for teachers. We will admire the
ceremony rooms, the halls and the Yusupov princes' private theatre which is one of a kind.

Stop at the Suur Tõll icebreaker
View over the Soviet prison and stories about life in the USSR
Tallinn city centre
Maarjamäe memorial
What we will do
Once off the ship, we are welcomed by comrade Jerjomin from the Soviet militia or by his assistant with the typical attitude of
frontier soldiers in charge of disembarkations.
Fully identified with his role, he shows us with great realism how tourists were treated in the USSR - everyone had to queue
for passport checks, was scrutinized with a frown and was subjected to a myriad of overly-suspicious questions.
We board an authentic Soviet coach taking us back in time as our guide Jerjomin clears his throat with a gulp of vodka and a
few pickles!
We stop by the Suur Tõll Icebreaker anchored in the port and now a museum. From here, we can observe the outline of the
old Soviet prison bearing unsettling memories of the regime. Jerjomin cheers up the atmosphere with some fun anecdotes
about everyday life in Soviet times with episodes taken from his personal experience as well as interesting considerations on
Estonia’s USSR heritage.
Once back on our coach, we cross the historic city centre of Tallinn, which preserves its Medieval charm intact, thanks also to
a skilful restoration of its architectural gems.
We reach the Maarjamäe Memorial which started out as a German war cemetery and was then turned by the Soviets into a
memorial for those killed during the Second World War.
As we look around, we enjoy a Soviet snack on our coach - Jerjomin offers us a slice of cake and a typical local beverage that
reminds him of his youth.
On the way back, our fun guide teaches us old Soviet songs and a few words in Estonian before bidding us farewell when we
reach the port.
Minimum age: 4 years.
The coach is a period vehicle on which we are served a Soviet snack.

We leave the port behind us on a coach headed to the Kõrvemaa nature reserve, a vast area covered in forest and swamps
that was mainly destined to military training in Soviet times and was therefore inaccessible to the public.
We stop at the base camp and, from there, continue on old military trucks along winding trails through the forest while our
adrenaline increases and as we take in the landscape appearing before our eyes.
We then reach the Kõnnu swamps, where we put on our special wide shoes that enable us to walk on the soft boggy terrain
for about two kilometres as far as the watchtower where we can admire the enchanting scenery characterised by a succession
of marshes and low pine vegetation.
We continue our walking tour along the wooden walkway across the swamp as far as the Järvi lakes where we can enjoy a
well-deserved break with a delicious picnic by the fire with a warm soup, tea/coffee and barbecued sausages.
After this relaxing break, we get back on the trucks to reach the coach taking us on a sightseeing tour of the Tallinn city centre

What we will do
A coach takes us to Tallinn’s old city as the imposing outline of the Medieval castle with its fairy-tale towers appears before our
eyes.
We get off the coach in Tallinn's Lower Part, on the banks of the ancient moat which offers a lovely view of the Toompea hill
where the ancient heart of the Estonian capital is perched.
We venture on foot to the heart of the historic city centre where we can admire some of the city’s hidden gems such as a
charming building believed to be haunted and the setting of mysterious legends.
We continue our pleasant walk by admiring the exterior of St. Nicholas' Church dating back to the 13th century. Originally a
fortress, it is now also a museum or religious art as well as an auditorium.
We thus reach Raekoja square with its 14th-century Gothic City Hall and Raeapteek, the oldest pharmacy in the Baltic area
that has been functioning uninterruptedly since 1422.
After this adventurous walk, we enjoy a fun break in a marzipan workshop. The guide explains that Tallinn was the first
European city to produce marzipan centuries ago, first as a medicinal product and then as a delicacy.
We are given a piece of marzipan to model in whatever shape we like: an animal, fruit or whatever takes our fancy. Children
love to make a mess, and adults are just the same!
After creating our masterpiece, we liven it up withfood colourings to make it even more beautiful. Before leaving the

people lived centuries ago.

What we will do
We leave the port on our coach and reach the two most popular family attractions in Stockholm: Junibacken and the open-air
Skansen museum. We have two and a half hours to enjoy the attraction we prefer!
At Junibacken, we enter a fairy-tale world inspired by the stories written by Astrid Lindgren, who invented extraordinary
characters such as Pippi Longstocking.
Right at the entrance, we find ourselves in Fairy-tale Square surrounded by old street lights and inhabited by characters
popular with children. We get on board the fairy-tale train, which takes us on an extraordinary journey through the tales
written by Astrid Lingdren and experience the emotions she can provoke: laughter and tears, amusement and fear.
We enter a perfect recreation of Pippi Longstocking’s house: we can play in her kitchen, go upstairs to see her bedroom or
take a photo with her white horse with black polka-dots.
Before leaving this enchanted place, we have some free time available to take a peek at the largest children’s bookshop in
Sweden or go to the café, decorated in the rustic style of days gone by and offering lovely views of the sea.
Alternatively, we can choose the open-air Skansen museum, the first-ever of its kind with houses and farms from all over the
country reproducing a miniature-version of Sweden and illustrating life and working conditions of the past.
The museum is also has a small zoo with wild animals from Nordic regions such as wolves, elks, seals and otters, in addition to

Description
A fascinating itinerary introducing us to the oldest district in Stockholm where the original city began to take shape in the 13th
century. We'll walk along its narrow streets lined with magnificent historic residences and visit what is without doubt the area's most
important building: the Royal Palace.
What we will see
Gamla Stan
Royal Palace
Storkyrkan (external visit)
Stortorget
Stock Exchange Building
What we will do
Our tour takes us to the historic centre of the magnificent Scandinavian capital, Gamla Stan or Old City. We'll be fascinated by
the characteristic little streets and delightful cobbled squares of the Stockholm residents' preferred location for meeting,
eating out, shopping or simply taking a walk.
At the end of one of these narrow streets we can see the enormous, imposing Royal Palace, built in the 18th century on the
same site as the 13th century Vasa fortress which was destroyed by fire in 1697. The current complex, the official residence
of the Swedish monarchy, is made up of a series of robust stone buildings in baroque style comprising over 600 rooms.
Our tour allows us to access the Palace and visit the Apartments with their magnificent baroque and rococo interiors, fully
admiring this highly important historical and cultural monument, one of the most fascinating royal palaces in Europe.
At the end of the visit to the Royal Palace an enjoyable tour of the Old Town awaits. Walking through its typical narrow streets,
we'll breathe in the bohemian atmosphere, admiring the characteristic residences dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries,
adorned with baroque gateways and old heraldic shields. We'll also take the opportunity to shop in the numerous boutiques,
galleries, antiques shops and craftsmen's workshops.
Unmissable sights include the oldest church in Gamla Stan, the cathedral known as Storkyrkan or Big Church, near the Royal
Palace. The church has always been the site of major events in Swedish history, such as coronations and royal weddings and
funerals.
Behind it is the main square of the Old City, Stortorget, or Large Square, around which the city developed in the 1300s.
Among others, it is home to the Stock Exchange Building, the headquarters of the Nobel Museum and the Swedish Academy.
