Nicko Cruises Opens Bookings for 2028 Summer Trips to the Baltic, Arctic and UK

Nicko Cruises has revealed where its ship Vasco da Gama will sail in summer 2028. Both outlets say the plan was shared in a press release.

Managing Director Guido Laukamp presented the plan at a digital press conference, according to Cruise Industry News. The trips run from 13 to 23 days. The itineraries stretch from the Baltic Sea along the Atlantic coast and past the British Isles, ending up in Iceland.

Travel and Tour World reports that bookings are now open. The company has put the trip details in its Ocean Voyages 2028 brochure. The schedule features Baltic voyages leaving Kiel, cruises around Western Europe, and trips to the fjords of Norway that depart from ports in Germany.

The Baltic Sea is a big part of the plan. Two 13-night voyages leave from Kiel, one in June and one in July. Travel and Tour World also says Nicko will add five more Mediterranean cruises for 2028 in January 2027.

What it means for travelers

Booking is open more than a year and a half before departure, so travelers have plenty of time to plan. Longer trips can include city visits, coastline views and smaller port stops. Travelers can also plan flights and hotels around the German departure ports.

What to watch next

Check the Ocean Voyages 2028 brochure for full routes and dates. Watch for the extra Mediterranean cruises that Nicko plans to announce in January 2027.
