Norwegian Star: 10-Night Cruise from Southampton - April 29, 2027

Arriving in Gothenburg, Sweden at 12:00 PM with only 7 hours hours before your 7:00 PM departure is a tight window. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the safest play here - you'll get priority disembarkation, and the ship will wait for its own excursions to return. Focus on one or two experiences close to the port. The historic center around the canals offers a pleasant introduction to Gothenburg.

The Norwegian Star will be offloading over 2,000 passengers into Copenhagen, Denmark.

Your cruise ends in Hamburg, Germany, where the Norwegian Star is scheduled to dock at 8:00 AM. With over 2,000 passengers, disembarkation groups are called over a one to two hour window - once your group is called, you'll be off in about 15 minutes. Self-assist lets you walk off first. Book your flight at least five hours after the ship's scheduled arrival. The city has one of Europes largest ports, and that maritime heritage shows everywhere from architecture to local attitude.

Food lovers appreciate the mix of traditional German dishes, fresh seafood, and international cuisine.

Explore the post-war city center designed by Auguste Perret with straight streets, concrete buildings, and striking architectural details.
