My husband and I will be celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary next August. We would love to begin our cruise from London and return to London.(cheaper airfare to London and back to Los Angeles, also want to see plays, sightsee) We would like our 2 week cruise to include Norway, Russia, Sweden, Finland & Denmark. There are so many choices: Holland America, Princess, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean,etc. Any suggestions on cruise lines with best itineraries, prices, meals, accomodations, tours, etc. What tours did you enjoy the best?

Thanks for your advice. We cruised to the Mexican Riviera on the Star Princess last May and people emailed us great suggestions on activities while in port and descriptions of the spectacular Star Princess
Thank you
Alan and Shelly

Hi Shelly & Alan,

I would go with Princess. They do it best in the Baltic and the Med.

Shelly & Alan,

We were on the Celebrity Constellation last June and had our best cruise yet. We've been on other cruise lines also. Princess is also one of our favorites. But the Constellation is the BEST ship doing the Baltic (we booked it for next June). If you were doing the Med., then you would have more of a choice of ships. But for your "25th" the Constellation will make it special.

I'm checking into tours also for our June cruise in the Baltic. I'll let you know what I've found later.
