Travelling by ferry is one of our favourite modes of transport when looking for an instant getaway. Fortunately, many ferry companies in Finland operate cruises to neighbouring destinations like Estonia, Sweden and Latvia. This article highlights our cruising experiences on Tallink's Baltic Princess.
We made a quick getaway to Stockholm, our neighbouring capital. Since the journey took a day on the Stockholm cruise, we had only time for a delicious lunch and one attraction afterwards. We decided to try Stockholm SkyView next to Avicii Arena. The arena is famous for hosting significant events, and SkyView, located in the exact same spot, provided us with a memorable ride to the top. Read more about our SkyView experience.
In late November, we wanted to visit Stockholm for one day. To do so, we hopped onboard Tallink's M/S Silja Symphony, a large ferry between Helsinki and Stockholm. Despite its strict schedule, the ferry offered us an experience akin to a leisurely cruise ship. To get insight into the ferry's interior and services, read our cruise story and learn how we reviewed the ferry.
This summer of 2022, we had a weekend getaway cruising from Turku, Finland, to Stockholm, Sweden, on M/S Viking Grace by Viking Line. In this article, we share our cruising experiences and tell interesting details about this huge ferry. Aside from transporting cargo, Viking Grace is a big luxury ship. Read the article about the services this ferry offers.
Silja Serenade is one of the biggest ferries on the Baltic Sea. Finns and Swedes love having a 2-night cruise on M/S Silja Serenade. Read a story about our cruising experience and interesting facts about this ferry.

We reviewed Premium Stellar Lounge on Finnlines’ M/S Finncanopus. Located at the bow of the top deck, the lounge had comfortable seating, a bar, and a selection of snacks and drinks. Business travellers could reserve meeting rooms equipped for presentations and video conferencing. Faster Wi-Fi and secure luggage lockers were available to all guests. The lounge offers a peaceful atmosphere with modern amenities, making it ideal for both relaxation and work. While the food and drink options were somewhat limited during our visit, we gave the lounge a four-star rating for its comfort and convenience.
On our way back from Porto to Helsinki, we decided to make the most of our layover in Stockholm Arlanda by visiting the Pearl Lounge in Terminal 5. The lounge was nice-looking with Scandinavian decoration, but perhaps a little too simple. Read more from our review.
If you're a frequent visitor of Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, you know the airport can be hectic. Between long lines, security checks, and rushing to catch your flight, finding a moment to relax and unwind can be tricky. That's why finding a peaceful oasis amid all the chaos is essential. Pearl Lounge by Gate C37 at Terminal 4 is one place to relax. With its comfortable seating and stunning plane-spotting opportunities, Pearl Lounge provides a much-needed respite from the hustle and bustle of the airport. However, the lounge is far from perfect. Please read our detailed Pearl Lounge review.
