The Crown of Scandinavia and the Arcadia in front of Hamlet´s Kronborg castle

The DFSD Copenhagen - Oslo cruise ferry Crown of Scandinavia tonight sailed through Øresund in good company -  P & O´s elegant MS Arcadia, which the cruise line describes in this way:


"Exclusively for adults, Arcadia offers a relaxed pace, stylish surroundings and more than a hint of extravagance to P&O Cruises. Arcadia’s signature features such as her exterior glass-fronted lifts and expansive art collection, featuring no less than 3,000 works of art, create a sophisticated air."


The Arcadia also offers culinary excellence - The Ocean Grill is a Marco Pierre White restaurant.

The Arcadia has just passed Kronborg
