It has been a long time since I visited the Baltic region, and other than Svalbard, I haven’t spent much time in Norway since 2015. These areas combine incredible history, cultural and culinary diversity, and spectacular beauty in both nature and architecture…and some quirky things too! With Explora Journeys’ Explora V, which will then be its newest ship, this will be a truly extraordinary journey.

Whether you are focused on immersion or ticking off all those countries that have been beyond your reach, this itinerary creates a journey that simply cannot practically be done by land, no less is such a short period or in such amazing comfort. You will be experiencing:
- Sweden
- Estonia
- Latvia
- Lithuania
- Poland
- Germany
- Denmark
- Norway
- Two Sea Days to relax (I mean Explora V is, herself, a destination!)
Goldring Travel’s May 2028 Culinary & Cultural Journey
While it is too early for most of the special Goldring Travel experiences to be known, the plan is to have an amazing Michelin-star dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in Copenhagen, which is a beautiful and walkable city.

Speaking of favorites, Bergen, Norway is another favorite, both for amazing seafood culinary experiences (hint!), but also some fascinating history and cultural curiosities.

While Flam is famous for its train, I previously hosted a Norwegian Culinary & Beer Experience that I might just repeat, as it was that delicious and fun.

This journey also highlights that just because you have been to a country, it doesn’t mean you have seen the country. Yes, I have spent some time in Sweden, Germany, Poland, Denmark, and Norway, but other than a few ports, most of this journey will provide me with new places and experiences.
When you reserve this journey with Goldring Travel you will receive a 225 Euro Journey Experience Credit along with all of the Goldring Travel Special Events. Prices start at $10,050 per person for an Ocean Terrace 1 Suite.
By the way, there is still space in Goldring Travel’s 2027 Central America Culinary & Cultural Journey – Explora Journey’s Explora III -April 22, 2027. If you are interested, please let me know.
This Scandinavian & Baltic journey will most certainly sell out quickly, so if you are interested, please call, email, text, WhatsApp, or message Goldring Travel sooner rather than later.
