We are very happy that CruiseCopenhagen acknowledges it with this prestigious prize. It is a great motivation for TUI Cruises to continue the path we have chosen,

Developed by CruiseCopenhagen’s more than 60 partners, the award recognises and celebrates initiatives that contribute to a more sustainable cruise industry in Denmark.

Our vision in CruiseCopenhagen is to develop a cruise industry in Denmark that pays particular attention to the environment in all its facets – for the benefit of the industry, its guests and its hosts.
