About Denmark

Denmark is the southernmost country in Scandinavia, boasting some of the highest rated standards of living in the world. Often regarded as a ‘fairytale country’, Denmark has both natural and architectural splendour in abundance. Renaissance castles stand on lake banks and stunning sandy beaches line the coast. Whatever the season, Denmark has something to suit. However, it is much more than just beautiful buildings and scenery. Its capital, Copenhagen is a hub for fashion, gastronomy and forward-thinking design. It’s also a haven for cyclists, with a vast network of cobbled streets leading you to candlelit bars and fascinating museums. Denmark is an excellent gateway to the surrounding Scandinavian countries and mainland Europe, with a large number of top-quality ports providing numerous routes, all operated by leading ferry companies. Also, as a nation with many islands and peninsulas, travelling by ferry is the most convenient way to explore everything Denmark has to offer.

About Poland

Poland is a large nation in Central Europe, with a long coastline on the Baltic Sea to the north and the Carpathian Mountains in the south. Sandwiched between Germany and the former Soviet Union, Poland endured a turbulent early to mid-twentieth century. But, today it stands as a beacon of post-communist European success and a proud nation with a rich Jewish heritage. A millennia-old history is apparent throughout every city, from the medieval fortresses in Gdansk, to Gothic structures in Krakow and World War II memorials in Warsaw. However, outside the sprawling cities lie unspoiled swathes of countryside, lakes, rivers and low-lying mountain passes, ideal for spontaneous long walks and organised hikes. Ferries cross the Baltic Sea from numerous locations on the south coast of Sweden, with a wealth of excellent ferry operators providing frequent crossings to multiple Polish ports.
