St Petersburg is an imperial capital city that never fails to impress or astound even the most avid traveller. Known as the Venice of the North, this city has given birth and importance to Russian Tsars and become and artistic powerhouse with its galleries and world class ballet facilities.

On to Tallin, the capital of Estonia, which has long been a plaything of great powers – Danish, Swedish, Polish and the Soviet Empire have all wrestled over this nation. Now, one of the most complete walled cities left in Eastern Europe, this is a city that believes in retaining its heritage and is an absolute must for lovers of both history and the finer things in life – luxury restaurants, atmospheric hotels and a modern culture makes this a city that needs to be seen, not only by tourists but travellers who want to discover a highlight of the Baltic Sea.
A trip into Latvia means a stop off in Riga is a must. Here you will discover a different kind of city to one that you see when first docking. Flamboyant art nouveau is a stark contrast to the austere image it has. Furthermore, it has a buzzing restaurant scene as well as modern art identity. The spirit of modernity rings true in this ancient city.
