Our adventure begins in Hamburg, a legendary port city where the raw brick architecture of the Speicherstadt meets the brisk Elbe breeze at Landungsbr\u00fccken, home to the authentic spirit of the Kiez. Hamburg is the ideal gateway to the North Sea and the perfect place to break free and board our floating heavy metal mecca. Once the ship leaves the port, there\u2019s no stopping us \u2013 the horns will be blaring!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Day two is all about the North Sea. We spend the day at sea enjoying the cool breeze at the open-air bars and taking part in metal-themed wellness activities. We also get warmed up in the mosh pit in front of the thumping stages before reaching the Norwegian mainland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On day three, we head deep into southern Norway and anchor in the idyllic town of Mandal. Surrounded by rocky coastlines, spectacular fjords and picturesque streets lined with wooden houses, this is where the wild natural beauty of Scandinavia reveals itself. You can take a detour to the famous Sj\u00f8sanden sandy beach, enjoy the panoramic view of the rugged coastline from the Utsikten viewpoint or enjoy a cold beer in the harbour town. Mandal offers the perfect blend of Viking romance and a cool northern breeze before the music cranks up again on board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the fourth day, we\u2019ll dock in Gothenburg, Sweden \u2013 the birthplace of melodic death metal! This is where extreme guitar riffs are at their most popular. You can explore the historic Haga district with its cobbled streets, climb the Skansen Kronan fortress for fantastic city views, or simply soak up the maritime atmosphere around the canals. After delving into Swedish rock culture, the pool deck will be buzzing once again as we set sail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One final day at sea gives you the chance to burn off your remaining energy in front of the stages at full volume, give it your all at the metal karaoke and let the unforgettable experiences sink in before we moor in the Kiel Fjord on the sixth day. Those disembarking in Kiel will set off on their journey home with their ears still ringing \u2013 those staying on will get ready for the raid of Part II!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die lauteste Kreuzfahrt Europas nimmt Kurs auf den rauen Norden!
