Majestic Princess: 12-Night Northern Europe from London (Southampton)

Zeebrugge is a North Sea port about 15 km from Bruges, one of Europe's best-preserved medieval cities. Ships dock at Zeebrugge, but the destination is Bruges: a city of 120,000 people whose medieval center survived the centuries virtually intact because the city's commercial importance faded after the Zwin river silted up in the 15th century, and nobody had a reason to tear anything down.

Amsterdam cruise port has one of the best locations of any cruise terminal in Europe. The Passenger Terminal Amsterdam (PTA) sits right in the city center, about a 15-minute walk from Central Station and the edge of the canal ring.

Oslo is Norway's capital, home to about 700,000 people in a city wrapped around the head of the Oslofjord with forested hills rising on every side.
