Cruises From Hull

Hull has benefitted from the growth of the cruise industry and cruises from Hull visit a number of countries in the north of the continent, such as Finland, Russia, Sweden, Denmark and Norway.

A selection of cruises from Hull visit Sweden's vibrant and contrasting capital Stockholm, where each one of 14 different islands has something special to offer. The city is certainly rich in culture and offers museums and architectural attractions in abundance, but one not-to-be-missed experience is a visit to the Vas Museum, where you'll find one of the best preserved shipwrecks in the world. The Old Town, as you may have guessed, is the ideal area in which to soak up the atmosphere of old Stockholm, while the City Hall is also an interesting place to visit.

Copenhagen is certainly one of the most memorable cities you can experience on cruises from Hull. Denmark's capital is one of the oldest in Europe and boasts a wealth of classic architecture to prove it. Stroll through town squares and plazas interconnected by bustling, shop-lined streets, or take a little time out by one of the city's beautiful fountains. The City Hall is certainly an impressive sight and the Church of Our Saviour is not to be missed, but there are more modern architectural gems to behold too, such as the visually stunning Copenhagen Opera House.

Helsinki perfectly showcases the modern outlook to architecture and design which Finland is famous for, and is a joy to explore. As you arrive in the harbour, you'll be greeted by the captivating sight of one of the capital's most famous attractions, the stunning Upenski Cathedral, while the Esplanade promenade is another key waterfront draw. The modern Rock Church is certainly a must-see, while Well Park is a beautiful and peaceful place in which to relax.

The very mention of St Petersburg conjures up an image of tsarist rule, opulent treasures and onion-domed churches and indeed, all this and more can be experienced during your visit to this iconic Russian city. Step back in time with a trip to The Hermitage, one of the world's largest art museums, located in the historical surroundings of the stunning Winter Palace and witness the truly breathtaking Church of Our Saviour on Spilled Blood, which is as beautiful inside as out.

Cruises from Hull also travel the captivating coast of Norway, visiting such historic ports as Bergen, which serves as a gateway to the Hardangerfjord and Sognefjord, boasting a World Heritage Site in the form of its Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf, and Flam, famous for its scenery and best explored by way of the famous Flam Railway. Hammerfest in the north of Norway, meanwhile, is the world's northernmost town and offers a real taste of the arctic. You may even see the famous Northern Lights!
