Yshee Black's Scandi Adventure

We sent drag icon and Gaydio travel correspondent, Yshee Black on her own Scandinavian adventure, where she explored the LGBTQ+ hotspots and soaked up the good vibes on board Ambassador Ambience.

This is your chance to visit the same places - Gothenburg, Copenhagen, Aalborg and Aarhus (replacing Malmo as originally advertised) with a plus one...

• Gothenburg, Sweden: Sweden's vibrant second city blends canals, colourful waterfronts and a thriving food scene with relaxed Scandinavian charm. Wander through the historic Haga district, browse boutique shops, enjoy world-class seafood or simply soak up the atmosphere in one of Europe's friendliest cities.
• Copenhagen, Denmark: Few cities balance royal history and contemporary cool quite like Copenhagen. Visit the iconic Little Mermaid statue, stroll along the colourful Nyhavn waterfront, discover magnificent palaces or experience the city's famous cafés and innovative cuisine. It's a city packed with culture, creativity and unforgettable photo opportunities.
• Aarhus, Denmark: Denmark's second-largest city offers a fascinating mix of Viking history and modern design. Explore charming cobbled streets, visit world-class museums, admire striking architecture or relax along the picturesque harbour. Aarhus perfectly captures the warmth and creativity of Danish culture.

Throughout your voyage you'll enjoy spectacular sailing, beautiful coastal scenery and the relaxed pace that makes cruising such a memorable way to travel.
