Tauck, a leader in upscale small-ship cruising, has unveiled its 2027 portfolio, featuring an exciting new Baltic Sea itinerary, enhanced Mediterranean voyages, and luxurious upgrades to popular Galápagos and Iberia journeys. The small ships, accommodating fewer than 200 guests, offer exclusive events and immersive cultural experiences across Northern Europe, the Aegean, and more. Reservations commence in March 2027.
New for 2027: Cruising the Baltic Sea on Le Champlain
Tauck returns to the cooler climates of Northern Europe with a 12-day Baltic Sea debut on Ponant’s sleek Le Champlain (fewer than 160 guests). Starting from $12,990 per person (plus airfare), this cruise takes you from Stockholm to Copenhagen via Helsinki, Tallinn, Wismar, Gdańsk, and the UNESCO World Heritage site of Visby.
Highlights Include:
- Exclusive dinner at Stockholm’s Vasa Museum.
- Visits to Estonia’s Victims of Communism Memorial and Poland’s Solidarity Centre.
- Lübeck’s unique Hanseatic charm accessible only to small ships.
- Onboard historians providing insights into Baltic history.
Demand for early bookings confirms Tauck’s impressive appeal in less-explored waters.
