EXPLORING THE BALTICS & RUSSIA
​WARSAW - HELSINKI - THE BALTICS - RUSSIA

This tour of the Baltics and Northern Europe is impressively full of high notes. Making our way from Poland to Finland through Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, we’ll see the historic sights, savor the hearty stews, and hear the harmonious songs this distinctive region is famous for, starting with a private Chopin concert in the music maestro’s hometown. Beyond Warsaw’s resilience and its “Wedding Cake” Palace of Culture and Science, there’s more to fall in love with in every capital city along your journey—Vilnius’ bohemian artist quarter, Riga’s Black Balsam liqueur and sweet Laima chocolates, and Tallinn’s fairytale Old Town and onion-domed cathedral. Don’t cry—our tour’s not over yet! A breezy ferry ride across the Baltic Sea to the design-centric city of Helsinki is the perfect encore.

Vodka wishes and caviar dreams are sure to come true because our tour of Northern Europe includes 6 days in Russia. Leading you to the country’s two largest and most fascinating cities, we'll double the blinis, borscht, and Baroque architecture as we savor the sights, history, and flavors of Russia’s former and current capital.

Join us for this incredible itinerary filled with fun, laughs and Sisterhood!
