Where History Meets the Sea. Helsingor is one of Denmark's most historic and strategically significant cities. Situated at the narrowest point of the Øresund Sound, where Denmark and Sweden are only 4 kilometers apart, the city offers a dramatic arrival experience that is arguably unrivaled in Northern Europe. It is globally famous as the home of Kronborg Castle, the setting for Shakespeare’s Hamlet and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

For cruise guests, Helsingør is the epitome of a "walkable port." The synergy between the maritime facilities and the city center is seamless; guests do not merely arrive at a terminal but step directly into a living, breathing Renaissance town.
