This was out third Princess cruise and the Star Princess was excellent. The stewards and hospitality staff were helpful and friendly. We did not encounter any problems on the ship. Touring the Baltic is an excellent way to get a quick overview of the region if you have never been there before. I am going to spend time with the excursions because this is a cruise that you can spend more time on land than on the ship!
Our group of 6 ages 17 to 70 went on a Princess sponsored excursion at each port. Some were excellent and very educational, others were a waste. I hope this will help future cruisers to the Baltic on their choices.
Stockholm - NY1-A Best of Stockholm a nice bus ride to the city and the tour guide gave a good overall history of Stockholm. We enjoyed walking through town and the Vasa was impressive. The lunch was a tad crowded so if you need space watch out.
