The cruise at a glance
The Olsen Way Highlights
Immerse yourself in centuries of intriguing maritime history, brought to life by impressive landmarks and traditions still in practice today. You will have the chance to visit important monuments such as UNESCO-listed Malbork Castle from Gdańsk and Berlin's Brandenburg Gate from Warnemünde. Klaipėda is ideal for learning about Lithuania's determination to be an independent nation. You can visit a family that has continued a legacy of keeping bees, an important symbol in Lithuanian folklore, at a farm established by their grandfather on his return to the country after Soviet exile. Balmoral is small enough to cruise through the German countryside via the engineering marvel that is the Kiel Canal.

Cruising the Kiel Canal
As Balmoral sails through the Kiel Canal, join us on deck as our knowledgeable team talk about the world’s busiest shipping lane in further detail. Slicing through German countryside with trees and other flora and fauna seeming so close you could touch them; the 53 mile long canal ensures a faster passage through Europe, connecting the North and Baltic Seas.
Discover Rural Lithuania and Bee-Keeping
Join us on a specially selected tour where we meet with two local sisters in Lithuania whose grandfather was deported to Siberia for resisting Soviet occupation in the 1940’s, and learn of the hardships he experienced. Today, they continue his bee-keeping legacy as the bee is said to be sacred in Lithuanian folklore and a symbol of harmony, and Lithuanians simply use it to mean good friends.
