Klassischer oder moderner Tanz: Eine einzigartige Kreuzfahrt in Partnerschaft mit dem Ballett der Pariser Oper und ausnahmsweise mit Dorothée Gilbert, der Startänzerin, begleitet von sechs Tänzern des Unternehmens (Änderungen der Besetzung vorbehalten).
Während der 11-tägigen Kreuzfahrt erleben Sie eine choreografische Reise durch das historische Skandinavien mit Bühnenaufführungen an Bord und an Land, Tanzunterricht, getanzten Vorträgen und Vorführungen mit anschließendem Austausch.
Während Ihrer gesamten Reise profitieren Sie von einem bereits im Reisepreis inkludierten Landausflug pro Anlaufhafen und Person. Dieser ist aus einem vom PONANT sorgfältig zusammengestellten Angebot auszuwählen. Entdecken Sie auf dieser Kreuzfahrt Überreste aus der Wikingerzeit ab Aalborg, besuchen Sie Schloss Sofiero, den ehemaligen Landsitz der schwedischen Königsfamilie, ab Helsinborg oder erkunden Sie die Landschaft und die Dörfer von Bornholm ab Gudhjem. Die Vielfalt der angebotenen Erlebnisse verspricht ebenso intensive wie abwechslungsreiche Momente (gesamtes Angebot unter dem Reiter „Reiseroute“ einsehbar).
Von Fredrikstad, der besterhaltenen Festungsstadt Nordeuropas, geht es entlang des Limfjords in den Norden Dänemarks nach Aalborg. Die Stadt wurde von den Wikingern gegründet und beherbergt unter anderem die archäologischen Überreste einer kreisförmigen Festung aus dieser Zeit.
Dann fahren Sie weiter an die schwedische Küste. Die erste Station auf Ihrer Reise durch Schweden ist Helsingborg, mit über neun Jahrhunderten eine der ältesten Städte Skandinaviens. Die dynamische und lebendige Stadt beherbergt die Überreste einer reichen historischen Vergangenheit, wie das Schloss aus dem 15. Jahrhundert, von dem nur noch der Bergfried des zentralen Turms, der Kärnan, erhalten ist.
Weiter östlich können Sie sich die Geschichte von Karlskrona erzählen lassen. Die südschwedische Stadt, deren Geschichte untrennbar mit der schwedischen Marine verbunden ist, verfügt über einen außergewöhnlichen architektonischen Komplex, charakteristisch für europäische Marinestädte am Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts. So wurde der Marinehafen mit seinen ehemaligen Werften und Verteidigungsanlagen von der UNESCO zum Welterbe erklärt.
Nach einem einmaligen, neuen Zwischenstopp in der mittelalterlichen Stadt Kalmar, wo 1397 die Union zwischen den Königreichen Norwegen, Schweden und Dänemark verkündet wurde, geht es weiter nach Stockholm. Die schwedische Hauptstadt ist von Wasser umgeben und räumt der allgegenwärtigen Natur einen großen Platz ein. Ihre Mischung aus mittelalterlicher Architektur, bunten Häusern und trendigen Stadtvierteln verleiht der Stadt eine einzigartige, entspannte Atmosphäre.
Dann nimmt die Le Lapérouse Kurs auf die Insel Gotland und Visby, eine der bedeutendsten Hansestädte der Ostsee im 13. Jahrhundert. Diese zum UNESCO-Welterbe zählende ehemals reiche Handelsstadt besitzt bemerkenswert gut erhaltene Stadtmauern, öffentliche Bauwerke, Zunfthäuser und Lagerge bäude.
Dann fahren Sie weiter in die hübsche Ortschaft Gudhjem auf der kleinen dänischen Insel Bornholm. Aufgrund ihrer abwechslungsreichen Landschaft von Granitfelsen bis zu ausgedehnten Sandstränden ist sie sehr beliebt.
Nach diesem letzten Aufenthalt läuft das Schiff Kopenhagen an, wo Ihre Reise endet.

Karlskrona liegt zwischen Land und Meer, verstreut über die kleinen Inseln des Blekinge-Archipels im Süden Schwedens. Aufgrund ihrer strategischen Lage in der Ostsee machte König Karl XI. von Schweden die Stadt 1680 zum Flottenstützpunkt der königlich-schwedischen Marine und gründete die Werft. Die Zitadelle wurde ex nihilo gebaut. Die Architektur wurde bis heute bewahrt, und die gesamte Anlage wurde zum UNESCO-Welterbe erklärt.

Sie können deren Sehenswürdigkeiten mit dem entlang der Kanäle durch die historischen Viertel Christiansborg und Nyhavn entdecken. Zahlreiche Paläste geben Ihnen einen Einblick in die dänische Geschichte. Kulinarisch lockt das Smorebrod, ein traditionelles dänisches Gericht mit verschiedenem Räucherfisch.
Stroll the narrow streets and discover the charming old town of Aalborg, its historic monuments and its neighbourhoods undergoing change with brownfield sites converted into cultural sites.
From the pier, walk to the New Square and Jens Bang’s Stone House. This Renaissance-style 5-storey mansion built in 1624 was the largest private house in Denmark. Rumour had it that its rich and bad-tempered owner caricatured some of his enemies in the grotesque stone faces that make up the façade.
Pass by the charming Baroque-style town hall dating back to 1762 and continue onto Budolfi Cathedral. This church, its façade as white as snow, was built at the end of the 1300s; its status was raised to that of a cathedral in 1554. Although its exterior is fairly sober, its interior is surprisingly colourful.
Admire the Monastery of the Holy Ghost, founded in 1451. It is one of Denmark’s best-preserved medieval establishments. In the past, it used to take care of the sick, elderly and orphans. Today, the monastery is a retirement home.
On your way to the port, you will see how the waterfront neighbourhood is coming back to life with the demolition of former industrial facilities replaced by buildings designed by internationally renowned architects Jørn Utzon and Alvar Aalto. Discover Aalborghus Castle near the seafront. It is a 16th-century half-timbered castle built by King Christian III, which became the seat of the King’s provincial governors in Northern Europe. The Nordkraft building, a former electric power plant, has become a cultural centre that creates synergy with the Musikkens Hus (House of Music) and the Utzon Centre, just on the street corner, opposite the seafront.

In north-eastern Denmark, in the heart of an old moss-covered forest, lies one of the country’s most fascinating buildings: Voergaard Castle. The art collection here - Rubens, Raphael, Goya, El Greco - is almost overshadowed by the legend of the site, that of a ghost haunting its walls.
Voted best Renaissance castle in Denmark in 2019, Voergaard can also take pride in its fascinating collection, the work of Count Oberbech-Clause. After the death of his wife, Countess Marie Henriette Lafitte, widow of Count Chenu Lafitte and daughter of the famous surgeon Jules Péan, he bought Voergaard and used 12 train carriages to transport the Countess’ collection, which includes objects that belonged to Napoleon or to Marie-Antoinette.
However, what makes Voergaard even more hypnotic is the legend that inhabits the building: it is allegedly haunted by Ingeborg Skeel, one of the former owners of the castle, who, in the 16th century, drowned her architect in the moat to avoid paying him.
You will then go to visit the Voer Church and the mausoleum of the Skeels, an important family in the region.

Dive into Denmark’s Viking history by visiting a recreated farm, a circular fortress and a burial ground.
A twin town that extends over both sides of the Limfjorden strait, Aaalborg, called Alabu in the past, was founded by the Vikings at the end of the 9th century and prospered thanks to fishing and the trade coming through the Limfjorden.
You will board a coach and cross the countryside to reach the Viking farm. It is the recreation of a real farm located near Jelling, the native town of Harald Bluetooth, one of the most powerful Viking kings and a direct ancestor of the current Queen of Denmark. During the summer season, the farm is full of volunteers wearing Viking clothing and recreating their customs.
You will then visit one of Denmark’s oldest ring fortresses, built around 980. These Viking-era forts have now almost all disappeared but, in Fyrkat, you can still see the circle that surrounded the 16 long houses. The site, as well as four other Danish fortresses, are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Continue your journey by crossing the bridge spanning the Limfjorden. You will soon arrive at the former Viking site of Lindholm Hoje, one of the oldest and most important in Denmark. The burial site has 700 stone tombs and an encampment dating back to the end of the Iron Age and the Viking era. This is a 1,000-year-old necropolis, the likes of which are found nowhere else in Denmark. The museum offers a marvellous glimpse into everyday life in a village at the time of the Vikings. You will also be able to get a real Viking souvenir or a Viking artefact.

You will meet your guide and board your coach for a panoramic 30-minutes tour of the UNESCO World Heritage listed part of the city, which is full of historical splendours reflecting its maritime heritage before heading to Brändaholm, and where you will be immersed in a typical Swedich neighbourhood.
Brändaholm is considered to be Sweden's most picturesque and beautiful allotment gardens. It is a picture-postcard example of Sweden's idylic way of life. It is located on a small promontory of the Dragsö island, and is characterized by its 1920s-style houses and small paths. An ideal destination for simply taking a stroll. There are 45 small houses with gardens, adorned with the Sewedish flag floating in the wind. None of the cabins may be larger than 32 square meters and the rule in Brändaholm states that all houses in size, shape and style must be similar.
To own a cottage you need to be in an inhabitant of Karlskrona. The local owners are very proud of their houses, and, of course, their gardens. The houses have historically passed from owner to owner through inheritance of other direct and personal means and they are rarely traded in the open market.
Stops will be made at a couple of the gardens where you will be able to have a look inside.
Then, head to a typical Swedish “fika” where you will enjoy a coffee with Swedish cake in the company of your local guide, who will be happy to ask all your questions about Karlskrona.
After this nice break, you will head to nearby Björkholmen, the old quarter of Karlskrona, with narrow streets and old wooden houses, where you will be immersed in a typical Swedish neighborhood from the past. A sharp contrast from the buildings of the city centre, you will enjoy a unique visit of one of the cottages before reboarding your coach and drive back to your ship.

A few steps from the quay is Stortorget, one of Europe's largest and most beautiful squares, with two churches, the Church of the Holy Trinity and Fredrik Church, designed by Nicodemus Tessin after a Roman prototype. In the middle of the square, you will also find the statue of King Karl XI, the city's founder, and an impressive view of the Admiralty Clock Tower, a well-known landmark and dominant feature of the cityscape.
Passing the main entrance to the still-active naval base, you will see parts of the magnificent Shed of Wasa and the Ropewalk en route to Admiralty Church, which dates back to 1685.

Visit one of Sweden’s oldest towns and its 16th century castle, which is like something out of a fairy tale.
The scenery in the Småland province is made up of pretty, colourful villages nestling on very woody hills dotted with clear lakes. You will catch a glimpse of it as the ship enters the port of Kalmar. Perched on a tiny island off the coast, its castle became famous in 1397, on the signature of the Kalmar Union between the kingdoms of Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
Landscaped in the English romantic style, the castle’s park has many rare plants and sculptures. Its views over the castle are stunning. Cross the former pier and enjoy a guided tour of the castle.
Then, continue towards the city centre passing in front of the former surrounding wall through charming little streets. Pass the Europa Nostra water tower and the three wooden houses called Tripp Trapp Trull, dating from the 17th century. Take the main street towards Stortorget, the big square home to the 17th century cathedral, which is the largest baroque church in Sweden. From the other side of the square, admire the city hall, built in a Dutch Renaissance style. After a short trip through the gates of the city, you will head back to the pier.

Explore the island of Öland by bus, to experience its unique light, wild landscapes and rich heritage, then discover the charming city of Kalmar, its emblematic castle and its picturesque Old Town, a testament to Sweden’s history.
Known as the island of sun and wind, Öland stretches over some 140 km of wild coastline and golden wheat fields. The island is a popular summer destination for Swedes, including the royal family. On a bus tour, you will have the opportunity to discover its emblematic windmills and its vestiges surrounded by enchanting landscapes.
Next, the small village of Borgholm will reveal its picturesque narrow streets and the ruins of its eponymous castle. Perched on the cliffs of Landborg, it is now considered one of Sweden’s most important historical monuments.
After exploring the island and its many treasures, you will head to Kalmar, a small, charming city with a historic centre, cobbled streets and pretty squares protected by fragments of the former fortified wall. Kalmar is full of wonders, including Sweden’s largest Baroque cathedral and an imposing castle where one of the most important events in the region’s history took place:
the Treaty of Kalmar, which united Sweden, Denmark and Norway, was signed here in 1397. Perched on a small island, this impressive castle was rebuilt in the 16th century. Today, visitors are fascinated by its fairytale appearance.
· This excursion involves walking a distance of about 800 metres (half a mile) on flat and cobbled ground that is sometimes uneven. We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes and clothing. The cathedral can be closed at any time without notice, for private functions.

Fall in love with Kalmar, one of Sweden’s oldest cities. This guided tour will take you to the heart of its 17th-century Old Town, a true gem with historical buildings and picturesque squares.
Your walking tour will begin at the guest harbour, where you will meet your guide. As you walk along the old ramparts, you will discover beautiful cobbled streets lined with colourful 17th-century houses. You will then arrive at Stortoget, Kalmar’s main square, dominated by two emblematic buildings: the elegant Baroque cathedral, the largest in Sweden, and the town hall, built in a superb Dutch Renaissance style.
Next, enjoy a moment of tranquillity as you stroll through the city park, a romantic English-style garden with many rare plants and artistic sculptures. This verdant, flower-filled setting offers a magnificent view of Kalmar Castle, an imposing fortress flanked by majestic watchtowers. The Treaty of Kalmar, uniting Sweden, Norway and Denmark, was signed there in 1397. After walking across the old wooden bridge, you will reach this fairytale-like castle for a guided tour.
Your visit will end at the Kalmar County Museum, housed in a former mill on the waterfront. This fascinating museum traces the history of the region and features a fascinating exhibition dedicated to the Kronan, the royal flagship sunk during a battle against the Danes in 1676. Only about fifty of the 840 men on board survived. The wreck was found in 1980. More than 30,000 objects, including precious gold coins, were recovered from it and are now on public display.
After this fascinating immersion in Kalmar’s past, you will slowly make your way back to your ship.
· This tour involves around 6 km (3.7 miles) of walking on flat, sometimes uneven and cobbled surfaces. It is not suitable for wheelchairs. You are advised to wear comfortable walking shoes and suitable clothing.

You will continue your visit through the northern outskirts of the city and through the scenic countryside en route to Sigtuna, an idyllic little town, approximately 45 minutes drive north of Stockholm and beautifully situated between the Lake Mälaren and cultivated areas bearing countless traces of old cultural traditions.

Many stone churches were erected but only the ruins of three of them remain to be seen. You will discover this charming town with picturesque wooden houses, narrow alleys and the smallest Town Hall in Scandinavia, dating from 1744.

From the pier, board your bus for a 30-minute drive and start your adventure around the island and through the lush Danish countryside. Drive along the northern coast of this little island situated far from the rest of Denmark in the Baltic Sea. Enjoy the unspoiled landscape and cliffs along the coast and drive through the little village of Allinge before reaching your first stop, the ruins of Hammershus.
Hammershus is the largest ruined castle in Northern Europe. The oldest part of the ruin dates back to the early 12th century and was erected to consolidate control of the island by Archbishop of Lund in the south of Sweden, which also used to be a part of Denmark. Enjoy the magnificent view of the ruin from the viewing point and explore the visitor center where you can learn more about the ruin and the kings who ruled the island.
Next, enjoy the journey to the south of Bornholm, arriving at its biggest town Rønne. Rønne is the largest town on the Danish island of Bornholm. Owing to its natural harbour and its strategic position in the Baltic Sea, Rønne has an interesting history, falling under both German and Swedish influence during its development as a herring fishing port. You will take a stroll along the cobbled streets and enjoy the coloured timbered and half-timbered houses. Rønne is now one of the most visited and popular villages in Denmark. Enjoy time exploring the capital on your own.
Along the northern coast, you will travel into the countryside passing the famous round church of Østerlars , where a uick photo stop will be made (outside visit), which dates back to 1150. It was used both as a place of worship and as protection against enemies from the sea.
Taking the coastal road, you will then travel back to Gudhjem, where you will have the opportunity to walk from the top of the village down the winding narrow streets with your guide before your journey ends where it began.

From Gudhjem, you will board your coach and begin your scenic tour through the picturesque farmlands of the small Baltic island of Bornholm belonging to Denmark. On the way, you will enjoy the coastal landscape, heading to the Baltic Sea Glass workshop, located a few kilometers from Gudhjem.

Today, Baltic Sea Glass welcomes between 100,000 and 120,000 visitors every year. Although they mainly design and produce functional tabletop glassware, the workshop also creates unique pieces for galleries and museum exhibitions.
At the end of the tour, you will continue to Almindingen, on the other side of the island. In one of Denmark's largest forest areas, you will discover Oesterlars round church, one of the four round churches located on Bornholm (representing half of all round churches in Denmark). A visit inside the church is planned, provided that no religious services are scheduled.
The next stop is at Hammershus, an ancient fortress built on the northern tip of Bornholm. These are the largest castle ruins in Northern Europe. The oldest part was built in the early 12th century to consolidate the power held by the Archbishop of Lund (then part of Denmark) over the island and obtained through an agreement with the Danish king, Svend Grathe. For the next 500 years Hammershus was home to various rulers of the island. Hammershus has been rebuilt and expanded several times. In 1743, Hammershus was finally abandoned as a fortress.
You visit will end with a stop in the charming village of Allinge where you will visit one of the smokehouses for that the island is also renowned. During this visit, you can taste smoked herring and an icecold beer before making the short return trip to the village of Gudhjem to board your ship.

Stroll the narrow streets and discover the charming old town of Aalborg, its historic monuments and its neighbourhoods undergoing change with brownfield sites converted into cultural sites.
From the pier, walk to the New Square and Jens Bang’s Stone House. This Renaissance-style 5-storey mansion built in 1624 was the largest private house in Denmark. Rumour had it that its rich and bad-tempered owner caricatured some of his enemies in the grotesque stone faces that make up the façade.
Pass by the charming Baroque-style town hall dating back to 1762 and continue onto Budolfi Cathedral. This church, its façade as white as snow, was built at the end of the 1300s; its status was raised to that of a cathedral in 1554. Although its exterior is fairly sober, its interior is surprisingly colourful.
Admire the Monastery of the Holy Ghost, founded in 1451. It is one of Denmark’s best-preserved medieval establishments. In the past, it used to take care of the sick, elderly and orphans. Today, the monastery is a retirement home.
On your way to the port, you will see how the waterfront neighbourhood is coming back to life with the demolition of former industrial facilities replaced by buildings designed by internationally renowned architects Jørn Utzon and Alvar Aalto. Discover Aalborghus Castle near the seafront. It is a 16th-century half-timbered castle built by King Christian III, which became the seat of the King’s provincial governors in Northern Europe. The Nordkraft building, a former electric power plant, has become a cultural centre that creates synergy with the Musikkens Hus (House of Music) and the Utzon Centre, just on the street corner, opposite the seafront.

In north-eastern Denmark, in the heart of an old moss-covered forest, lies one of the country’s most fascinating buildings: Voergaard Castle. The art collection here - Rubens, Raphael, Goya, El Greco - is almost overshadowed by the legend of the site, that of a ghost haunting its walls.
Voted best Renaissance castle in Denmark in 2019, Voergaard can also take pride in its fascinating collection, the work of Count Oberbech-Clause. After the death of his wife, Countess Marie Henriette Lafitte, widow of Count Chenu Lafitte and daughter of the famous surgeon Jules Péan, he bought Voergaard and used 12 train carriages to transport the Countess’ collection, which includes objects that belonged to Napoleon or to Marie-Antoinette.
However, what makes Voergaard even more hypnotic is the legend that inhabits the building: it is allegedly haunted by Ingeborg Skeel, one of the former owners of the castle, who, in the 16th century, drowned her architect in the moat to avoid paying him.
You will then go to visit the Voer Church and the mausoleum of the Skeels, an important family in the region.

Dive into Denmark’s Viking history by visiting a recreated farm, a circular fortress and a burial ground.
A twin town that extends over both sides of the Limfjorden strait, Aaalborg, called Alabu in the past, was founded by the Vikings at the end of the 9th century and prospered thanks to fishing and the trade coming through the Limfjorden.
You will board a coach and cross the countryside to reach the Viking farm. It is the recreation of a real farm located near Jelling, the native town of Harald Bluetooth, one of the most powerful Viking kings and a direct ancestor of the current Queen of Denmark. During the summer season, the farm is full of volunteers wearing Viking clothing and recreating their customs.
You will then visit one of Denmark’s oldest ring fortresses, built around 980. These Viking-era forts have now almost all disappeared but, in Fyrkat, you can still see the circle that surrounded the 16 long houses. The site, as well as four other Danish fortresses, are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Continue your journey by crossing the bridge spanning the Limfjorden. You will soon arrive at the former Viking site of Lindholm Hoje, one of the oldest and most important in Denmark. The burial site has 700 stone tombs and an encampment dating back to the end of the Iron Age and the Viking era. This is a 1,000-year-old necropolis, the likes of which are found nowhere else in Denmark. The museum offers a marvellous glimpse into everyday life in a village at the time of the Vikings. You will also be able to get a real Viking souvenir or a Viking artefact.

Pass the neo-Gothic Helsingborg City Hall located next to the main square, Stortoget. Continue to the Church of Saint Mary, which dates from the 14th century.

You will meet your guide and board your coach for a panoramic 30-minutes tour of the UNESCO World Heritage listed part of the city, which is full of historical splendours reflecting its maritime heritage before heading to Brändaholm, and where you will be immersed in a typical Swedich neighbourhood.
Brändaholm is considered to be Sweden's most picturesque and beautiful allotment gardens. It is a picture-postcard example of Sweden's idylic way of life. It is located on a small promontory of the Dragsö island, and is characterized by its 1920s-style houses and small paths. An ideal destination for simply taking a stroll. There are 45 small houses with gardens, adorned with the Sewedish flag floating in the wind. None of the cabins may be larger than 32 square meters and the rule in Brändaholm states that all houses in size, shape and style must be similar.
To own a cottage you need to be in an inhabitant of Karlskrona. The local owners are very proud of their houses, and, of course, their gardens. The houses have historically passed from owner to owner through inheritance of other direct and personal means and they are rarely traded in the open market.
Stops will be made at a couple of the gardens where you will be able to have a look inside.
Then, head to a typical Swedish “fika” where you will enjoy a coffee with Swedish cake in the company of your local guide, who will be happy to ask all your questions about Karlskrona.
After this nice break, you will head to nearby Björkholmen, the old quarter of Karlskrona, with narrow streets and old wooden houses, where you will be immersed in a typical Swedish neighborhood from the past. A sharp contrast from the buildings of the city centre, you will enjoy a unique visit of one of the cottages before reboarding your coach and drive back to your ship.
