A very nice passenger terminal, plenty of seating and a nice cafe. We travelled to the port by car we where directed to the car park, our luggage was taken out of the car and we didn't see it again until we got to our cabin. We had a very swift embarkation approximately 25 minutes.

Take the free shuttle from the port into town where you can then take the train into the city. It's a very nice city. Visit St. Nicholas' cathedral and the castle. Meander about the city and enjoy the architecture.

I would never have expected this but our guide, who was a native and had such a love of his town and its history, made this a memorable stop. The stories told and the history revealed were everything. Fascinating. Their Millenium bridge was quite the sight!
