The port of Kiel in Germany, situated on the Baltic Sea, has a long and rich history. Its origins can be traced back to the 13th century when it was founded by Count Adolf IV of Holstein. In 1242, Kiel was granted city rights and quickly developed into a significant maritime and trade hub due to its strategic location.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, Kiel gained prominence as a major shipbuilding center. The city's port was home to the German Imperial Navy and later the Kriegsmarine of Nazi Germany. During World War II, the city and its port were severely damaged, but they were rebuilt in the post-war years. Today, the port of Kiel is one of the busiest in Germany, serving as a crucial gateway for cargo, passengers, and cruise ships.
A visit to this city is truly impressive. We visit the little mermaid, take a few photos with the castle guards, whose hats are known to the whole world. Did you know they weigh up to 8 kg? More from our delegate. The walk through the city centre itself is very charming and relaxing.In the nearby Tivoli theme park you can try the roller coaster from 1914, the oldest in Europe and the third oldest in the world.

The history of the Port of Copenhagen, Denmark's largest harbour, dates back to the Middle Ages when it played a crucial role in the city's growth and development. The port was originally established by Bishop Absalon in the 12th century, who built a fortress on the island of Slotsholmen, creating a natural harbour which would become the heart of Copenhagen.
Through the centuries, the Port of Copenhagen grew and modernised. During the industrial revolution in the 19th century, the port expanded, with new docks and warehouses constructed to accommodate increasing trade. The port was a significant hub for Denmark's international trade and naval power. In the 20th century, the port faced challenges as industry moved away from the city centre, but it has since transformed into a bustling area with residential, business and recreational facilities.
Already in the western fjords we can see that in Norway the day almost never ends at this time. So even at night, when we sail through the fjords, you can take pictures of beautiful natural phenomena. In the morning, we will dock briefly in Hellesylt, drop off clients interested in MSC optional excursions and continue on to Geiranger.
The village of Hellesylt is home to a historic port in Norway, dating back to the late 19th century. This harbor was a crucial point of trade and transportation for the region, serving as a gateway for goods and people. The port was primarily used for shipping timber and fish, two of the area's most significant economic resources.
In the early 20th century, the Hellesylt port underwent significant expansion and development, transforming it into a major hub for passenger ships. This was largely due to the rise in tourism, with visitors drawn to the breathtaking natural scenery of the fjords. Today, the port continues to welcome tourists, making it an essential part of Hellesylt's economy and cultural heritage.
In Geiranger, a harbour town at the end of Norway's most famous glacial fjord of the same name, you can enjoy pleasant walks in the beautiful local countryside. Optionally, for an additional fee, you can take a wonderful sightseeing bus trip to the platforms around the fjord, from where you can see the magnificent natural scenery.
Delegates take part in an optional excursion in Geiranger (1.390 CZK/person).
The Geiranger port in Norway has a rich history that dates back to the Viking Age. Located in the Geirangerfjord, this port was an important strategic location due to its proximity to the sea. The Geirangerfjord itself is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, featuring steep mountain cliffs and deep blue waters.
In the 19th century, Geiranger port gained prominence as a major tourist destination. Visitors were drawn to its breathtaking landscapes and the town's unique charm. The cruise port was established in the 20th century and has since seen a steady flow of tourists from around the world. Today, the Geiranger port continues to be a vital part of Norway's tourism industry.
Alesund, a town on the west coast of Norway, is like something out of a fairy tale. Its diverse architecture, born from the ashes of the Great Fire of 1904, creates a perfect blend of history and modernity, where every street tells a story. Our cruise will take you into the heart of this magical place, where you will have the opportunity to sample local specialties that will delight your palate, discover the hidden treasures of local tourist attractions, and be swept away by the magic of relaxation that both Alesund and our ship's deck offer.
Delegates participate in an optional excursion in Alesund (1.290 CZK/990 CZK child under 15 years).
The history of the Norwegian port of Alesund dates back to the Viking era. Its proximity to the sea and fertile fishing grounds made it an important fishing port. The port's importance grew further in the Middle Ages, when it became the centre of the Hanseatic League, a powerful economic and defence alliance of merchant guilds and their market towns in Northern Europe.
In 1904 a devastating fire destroyed most of the town, but Alesund was quickly rebuilt and the new buildings were characterised by a distinctive secessionist style. Today, the port of Alesund is still an important centre for Norway's fishing industry and is also a popular stop for cruise ships exploring Norway's beautiful fjords. In addition, the port serves as a base for oil and gas operations in the North Sea.
The village of Flaam is famous for the steepest railway from Flaam to Myrdal.

Train trip is optional for an additional fee. The delegate takes part in the optional excursion in this destination (2.390 CZK/1.990 CZK child under 15 years).
The history of the port of Flaam in Norway is deeply intertwined with the region's maritime past. Located in the innermost part of the Aurlandsfjord, a tributary of the Sognefjord, Flaam has been a vital harbor for centuries. The port's significance rose with the increasing need for sea routes, especially for the transportation of goods and people.
In the late 19th century, Flaam became a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors with its stunning natural beauty. The development of the Flaam Railway in the 20th century, considered one of the most beautiful train journeys in the world, further boosted its popularity.

Aside from cruises, I'm a content creator. So you can reminisce about some of our experiences together through texts or videos on the Riviera Tour News pages.
