Discoveries of captivating cities combined with scenic cruising of some of Europe’s most beautiful waterways makes for a memorable, endlessly rewarding adventure. Borealis will take you through two of the world’s largest and most picturesque archipelagos, weaving between rocky islands and forested islets, in Turku and Stockholm, while you’ve a chance to kayak within the Helsinki Archipelago too. There’s also a sail past the Olsen family home in Hvitsten, on the shore of Oslofjord, for a memorable start to your time in Norway.
Before sailing the Stockholm Archipelago, you’ve ample time to see the Swedish capital’s architectural highlights, such as the Royal Palace; visit the many museums; and perhaps take a boat trip on the picturesque canals. In Denmark, you can experience another romantic boat ride along Copenhagen’s canals, though you may opt to explore on foot to see the Danish capital’s famous sights, from the famous Little Mermaid and Nyhavn waterfront district to the Royal palaces. During your visit to Finland, you’ve also a chance to explore the islands of Helsinki and see Suomenlinna sea fortress on a boat tour. There is so much history to delve into too; highlights include a visit to the beautiful island of Gotland for a glimpse into Sweden’s Hanseatic heritage in historic Visby, and a day to explore Tallinn – Estonia’s capital – and its fairytale-esque Old Town.
There's far more to Borealis than we could possibly fit on this page. Click below to find out more about her cabins, restaurants and other excellent facilities.

Rules may have changed since you last travelled to European Union countries and Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. The following are useful guidelines which will help you prepare for your next adventure. Note that these new rules do NOT apply when travelling within the United Kingdom or to the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man or the Republic of Ireland. You do require government issued ID when travelling by air though.
It is very important that all passenger names are exactly as per your passport although we do not require middle names.
Your passport must meet two requirements to travel to an EU country and to Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. It must be:
These rules do not apply to travel to Ireland where you can continue to use your passport as long as it’s valid for the length of your stay.
If you’re a tourist, you do not need a visa for short trips to most EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. You’ll be able to stay for up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period. Different rules will apply to Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Romania; if you visit these countries, visits to other EU countries will not count towards the 90-day total. Travel to Ireland will not change and stays there will not count towards the 90-day total.
Towards the end of 2022, it is likely that non EU citizens will be required to apply online for an authorisation to visit most European countries. The current details suggest there will be a charge of €7 per person and the authorisation will be valid for all trips made to the EU in a three year period from issue. We will advise you of confirmed details prior to your tour’s departure.
At border control, you may need to show proof of your return journey - your travel documentation issued by us will be sufficient for this. You will also need to use separate lanes from EU, EEA and Swiss citizens if manual checks are required.
You should always get appropriate travel insurance with healthcare cover before you go abroad which covers pre-existing conditions. You should understand the terms and conditions of your travel insurance and be happy with its cover for healthcare and travel disruption. Newmarket sell a comprehensive travel insurance policy. Ask our travel consultants for more information.
You should also apply for a UK Global Heath Insurance Card (GHIC) which lets you get urgent state healthcare in Europe at a reduced cost or sometimes for free. Note GHIC is only valid in EU countries and not in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
