Established by Charlemagne in the 9th century, Hamburg has managed to preserve its Gothic old quarter. The city’s other attractions range from St. Pauli, the ribald red-light district, to the fashionable shops of Jungfernsteig and the St. Michael’s Church, a masterpiece of Baroque architecture. - Day 2 – At Sea:

Around every bend, there are magnificent views of mountain peaks, the Atlantic and the fjords that notch Norway’s coast.During the summer months, Molde lives up to its nickname-the City of Roses-with flowers blooming everywhere, from the roof of the town hall and the university grounds to the picket fences around houses. - Day 8 – At Sea:

The climate here is temperate: flower boxes fill the windows of houses, and trees line the neat, well-tended avenues. Thanks to that mild climate, Akureyri’s Botanical Gardens provide a home for over 2,000 species of flora from around the world – all surviving without greenhouses.
