Good point to start given you can arrive by train and walk from the train station to the port.

Thumbs Up 2

Tallinn, Estonia

Small and charm city

St. Petersburg, Russian Federation

4 out of 5

2-day excursion from SPB-tours is great and affordable

Thumbs Up 5

Helsinki, Finland

4 out of 5

Easy to visit. Try to visit Porvoo, is a very charm small town

Thumbs Up 4

Nynashamn (Stockholm), Sweden

5 out of 5

Stockholm worth more than a day. Other lines cruises got inside the city but NCL ship is too big (1 hour from the port)

Thumbs Up 0

Copenhagen, Denmark

4 out of 5

Public bus from port to the city. Take the free tours from the city hall (11 am)
