Klassischer oder moderner Tanz: Eine einzigartige Kreuzfahrt in Partnerschaft mit dem Ballett der Pariser Oper, begleitet von den führenden Tänzer („Danseurs étoile“) des Balletts sowie mehreren Tänzern des Ensembles.
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.

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.

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.

Visby, once a stronghold of the Hanseatic League, is a beautifully preserved medieval town, proud of its heritage and anxious to share it with visitors.
Your tour begins with a drive to an area just north of Visby town called Galgberget (“Gallows Hill”), a nature reserve high on a limestone cliff providing beautiful views of the town below and the sea beyond. At the edge of the cliff, three stone pillars stand in a circle—the ruins of a 13th-century gallows, where local criminals were executed.

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. Baltic Sea Glass is Denmark's largest glass blowing studio, for which the island is famous. The studio and gallery are set in a converted chicken coop. 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.

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.

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.

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.
