Day 4
Visby
Visby, on Sweden's island of Gotland, is a UNESCO-listed medieval treasure and the best-preserved walled city in Scandinavia, where thirteenth-century Hanseatic merchant heritage meets cobbled lanes draped in roses. Visitors should walk the complete 3.4-kilometre ring wall for panoramic views and taste the island's signature saffron pancake, saffranspannkaka, with dewberries and cream. The ideal season is June through August, when the Baltic light lingers well past midnight and the harbour welcomes the finest cruise lines on their summer itineraries.

Gdansk
Gdańsk is a magnificently reconstructed Baltic port city where Gothic spires, amber-laden merchant houses, and the birthplace of the Solidarity movement converge along the luminous Motława River. Visitors should not miss the Royal Way's Renaissance façades and a tasting of traditional żurek soup and Goldwasser gold-flecked liqueur at a waterfront restaurant. The Baltic cruise season from May through September offers the most favorable weather, with long northern days that bathe the city's ornate gables in golden light well past nine in the evening.
