Visit a genuine medieval city, which opens its heart to hundreds of
thousands of visitors each year. As soon as you reach the mouth of
Visby harbor, you can tell why this is one of the most popular cruise
ports in the Baltic — the quay is right in the middle of the city.
Cobblestone alleyways wind up to
shopping streets full of charming
shops and tempting cafés. In this
city of roses and ruins, ancient history and modern urban life rub elbows
at every turn. Culinary delights,
artistic creativity and exotic natural
surroundings make this a destination
rich with contrasts to titillate all of your senses. Take the guided
tour to give you an idea where you
want to wander later on your own in
this unique Hanseatic town, which
is included on UNESCO’S World
Heritage List.
The picturesque beach promenade along the well-preserved city walls
makes a great excursion. If you
want to see more of the island, you
can take a guided tour. Outside the
walls is a treasure trove of over 90
medieval churches and countless ancient remains, strange limestone
formations and rare plants – a dream come true for fans of botany,
geology and history! |
