Our first time taking an overnight ferry from Helsinki, Finland to Stockholm, Sweden!
We took a 17 hours ferry on the the Tallink Silja Symphony Cruise ship.
We were surprised by the cruise ship! It looked like a shopping mall, with a casino and bars!
We had a private cabin, and enjoyed a dinner buffet.
People told us this would be a booze cruise, with bands, karaoke, and clubs on board.
Check out our experience on this overnight ferry.

    • There's zoo near by Stockholm called Kolmården and in Stockholm there's this place called Skansen, there's aquarium, zoo, open air museum... Definitely check more information from the internet if there's something you guys would like to see... During summertime, there's multiple sing-along concerts in Skansen that locals love to go to called Allsång på Skansen, even the royal family members attend sometimes and those concerts are broadcasted live to Finland too. Vasa museum is a must, there's a huge intact 1600's warship on display, the ship sunk during it's maiden voyage in 1628 and was lifted in 1961 the ship is in amazing condition and worth a visit. There's also swedish crown jewels on display in or actually underneath the Royal palace in the vaults of Royal treasury (skattkammaren) Too bad that Gröna Lund amusement park isn't opened yet...

You can buy tickets for a cruise where you go from Finland to Sweden (or vice versa) and back and don't go on shore for 10-20€, but if you want to use same ship for travelling, it's about 50-70€ from the top of my head. Just to get people to spend on booze and other stuff. People also go on the cruises to buy tax free tobacco and booze.

  • A common misconception about Schengen area that might be worth clarifying, is that it does not mean no border checks or border security, quite to the contrary, it is a stronger unified outer border, when members have agreed to focus all border check efforts on the border facing outside of Schengen area and not inside it. Meaning the whole Schengen area is protected with a stronger more unified border control, by freeing up the resources from border control between the member nations. This however does not mean that a Schengen member nation can't ramp up and restart the border control between borders inside the area, it is just saved for crisis, since it is such a waste of time and money otherwise. For example, during the refugee and covid crisis even many borders inside Schengen area were temporarily re-activated on a needs basis Btw, pancakes for breakfast is a North American thing, don't expect to find if outside NA unless they are regularly serving NA tourists

  • As a Finn I've been to the cruise ships probably 30 times in my life, ever since I was a kid (obviously it wasn't a booze cruise then, there is actually a lot of stuff for kids to do on the boats as well). And from my later experience I can tell that the people who were carrying the beer boxes were taking those to their cabin to drink them, because it's much cheaper than to drink in the pubs there... Everyone knows that the boat "rules" say that you can't do that, but they still do 😅 Glad that you visited Finland and that you'll be back! And next time try Finnish pea soup (hernekeitto) with mustard, it's something that I think every Finnish person has eaten in their life and either love or hate, mostly love 🥰

  • 4:15 The buffet is worth it if you pick the most expensive items and drink the more expensive alcoholic drinks. But unless you do, you can get a cheaper meal in one of the restaurants aboard. Oh and if you book a fancier cabin (commodore or above), a premium breakfast, lounge access with all sorts of food and drink plus a fully stocked minibar in your cabin are included. It can be a pretty good deal outside the most popular cruise season when cabins are less expensive.

It's more historical than that and goes way back when we all used to be pretty much the same people. Way back as in like the Viking age. Moving/working/traveling between our countries requires nothing other than being a citizen of one of the others. It's like going from your home, to your other family memebers home.

  • How long are you staying in Sweden? Stockholm is beautiful but expensive so take a train to Skåne ( south of Sweden ) it's cheaper and nicer and if you're going to Denmark take the boat from Helsingborg. Lots to do and experience.

  • Viking Line for sure is a bit of a party boat, I go on theme cruises twice per year (Turku - Stockholm) where we have metal bands and all kinds of other fun stuff (Burlesque, bellydancing, stand up comedy, hangover bingo (which I host)). Haven't been on a Silja Lines cruise since I was a little kid tbh. The Viking Line cruises do also have just normal people in them every time, even though it's a theme cruise. Lots of old people and lots of kids that are part of some sort of sports teams (probably soccer or ice hockey or something) and it's a bit of a culture shock to venture out from the areas that are full of heavy metal people. Buffet meals are always pricey on boats, I do recommend checking out what kinds of food options there are on the boats if you take another cruise in the future. One thing that is a must for me is a shrimp sandwich! Usually I find some kind of cake at some point as well and my friends roll their eyes and say "you're supposed to be drinking instead of eating!" :D We're big on buying booze from the cruise ships, and especially Finnish people buy snus and/or nicotine pouches. Snus isn't sold in Finland, and nicotine pouches are much cheaper on the boats, so we hoard them. For us Finns clean water from any tap is a no-brainer, even in a cruise ship! And yes, our pancakes are more like crepes, we don't do the thicc pancakes like North Americans do. There's also oven pancake, which is thicker, usually served on Thursdays for dessert after pea soup. We do love our cruises, and we also love going from one country to another with no hassle. I don't even have a passport atm, haven't had one for years, and I've travelled to Estonia, Denmark, Sweden and Norway without having to show my ID at all. Well, during covid times I did have to show my ID when I returned to Finland, and my vaccine card and then had to explain that I wasn't able to get the third shot because I got some weird side effects and then my doctor told me not to get the third one, almost wasn't allowed to come back to Finland lol. We had checked if we need to have proof of vaccines when going to Norway and Sweden, never thought to check out if we needed to have proof when coming back home :D

  • It is a seal. Nordic countries (except Greenland etc) have had a passport exemption that applies to their citizens since 1952, well before Schengen. No custom because of EU although Ahvenanmaa in Finland is not a part of EU and there is both custom and VAT border - tax free works onboard. The passport rules are more liberal than in Schengen: one just needs to proof the identity. You as foreigners need to have a passport and keep record how long you are allowed to stay.

In case of "not have to travel too much" I guess you have to hope Tappara - Pelicans final series between Tampere and Lahti (~133km), other distances varies between about 300km to 500km 😁(Semifinal pairs are Tappara - Kalpa and Kärpät - Pelicans)

It was 62€ overnight trip to Tallinn with a car parked on the ship on last Saturday. The buffee was 29€. These ships get the money mainly by selling booze and cigarettes and snus.
