Our room was always clean and Hernane, our steward was excellent.  He took great care of us.  The air conditioning was not great but the cool temps on this cruise made that easy as we just slept with our balcony door open and enjoyed the sea air. We spent quite a bit of time on our balcony.

3 hours each way on non air conditioned train in a brutal heat wave.  Then 6+ hours on a bus with few opportunities to get off and see anything.  Great if you like taking pictures from a bus window.  Guide was excellent and imparted a ton of local knowledge to us about the city and the effects of the cold war.

Long day of sightseeing but very much worth it.  Great introduction to Copenhagen and Denmark in general  

Copenhagen

Really enjoyed this.  Great little town with tons of history and things to see.  Bus time was not excessive and tons of opportunities to get off and walk around and see things.  walking portions were a bit rushed to keep us on schedule but there was so much to see. Guide was excellent

Part of the Catherine palace tour on our Grand 2 day tour.  Incredible and overwhelming the amount of money  the Romanov's spent.

St. Petersburg

all of these locations were just incredible.  Also our guide got us to the front of the lines at every location.  That made a huge difference in time inside when you are talking about there being 9 cruise ships in town when we were there.  Only thing lacking was more time to explore and see incredible things.  Warning to all when you are in these places do not mess around, Russians do not joke about when it comes to security or following rules.  They are very proud of these places and there is a literal army of old, cranky russian ladies everywhere that will set you straight if do anything silly or against the rules. You will be overwhelmed at the sheer size and opulence of this place.

This was only an external stop for our Grand 2 day tour so we didn't get to go inside.  Some tours offer that and it would have been nice but otherwise a beautiful place.

saw lots of stuff but most of it was from a bus.  There was so much walking on most of this tour though, the chance to sit and relax a bit between destinations was welcome.  We saw more things than I can remember.  The stop at the Neva river island to see St. Peter's and Paul's Fortress and the Hermitage was great. 

Like taking a drink from Niagara Falls You are guided from room to room and you just keep thinking that it can't get any more over the top than the last room and then you find out you are wrong.  Any normal person could easily spend days in this place looking at the art.  A few hours only give you a taste and our guide was great about getting us to the top 5 in our time there

The Russians know how to decorate the inside of churches. Beautiful inside and out.  Good amount of time at this location.  Saw what I wanted.  

Again WOW!!!!  The interior is only exceeded by the exterior grounds and fountains.  Could not take pictures fast enough.

this was a land and sea tour of the city.  It was ok but many of the best locations there were no stops at to visit.  This was a short stop in port so a longer one would have given us more options.  Nice town but felt like we experienced it at arms length.  

the highlight of this was the boat tour through the main canal and then to the Vasa museum.  such a beautiful city with so much history.; The weather was incredible and so many pictures were taken

Great walking tour where we got to visit the royal palace, the Nobel museum, several churches, and opportunities to shop.

This was a land and sea tour and it was way more hands on with stops to see things.  One of the biggies was the Vasa museum.  This place is fascinating.  Really felt connected to the local history.  Our tour guide was great

They ran out of lobster 2/3 way through the cruise so our "upgrade" meal at ocean blue was fish or shrimp similar to what was on offer at the main dining room.The Brazilian steakhouse was excellent and we enjoyed it the first night and the Cirque dinner show was excellent bu the food was a set menu from the main dining room.
