Day 1: Arrival in Helsinki

Arrive in Helsinki and take the airport express train to city centre. Tickets cost around Eur 5 and the average travel time is 30 minutes. Check-in at the centrally located Scandic or Radisson Hotel for one night. Evening at your leisure.

Helsinki is one of Europe's most modern cities. It is a pleasantly compact city with all major attractions within walking distance of each other, including the fortress of Suomenlinna, Senate Square, modern art museum Kiasma, and the unique 'Church in the Rock'. The city was first founded by the Swedish king, Gustav Vaasa, back when Finland was still part of Sweden. After being conquered by Russia, Helsinki became the capital of the country and glimpses of the Russian era can still be seen in the architecture of the city.

Day 2: Helsinki – Stockholm

In the afternoon transfer from your hotel to the pier and board your cruise ship for the overnight sail to Stockholm. Overnight stay in a cabin with a window.

Day 3: Stockholm

Arrive in Stockholm and make your way to a centrally located hotel. In the afternoon, a city sightseeing tour to get you acquainted with Stockholm. The remaining part of the day is at your leisure.

Stockholm is one of the most beautiful cities with an archipelago of over 24,000 islands. The Old Town and Riddarholmen Islands form Northern Europe's largest and best-preserved medieval city core, with a history dating back to the 13th century. Stockholm's major attractions include the Royal Palace,the Royal Treasury, and the Vasa Museum featuring the warship Vasa, which sank in Stockholm on her maiden voyage in 1628. Stockholm is also an excellent place to shop and all major Swedish and international brands, designer stores and markets can be found in the city centre.

Transportation

Railway mostly serves domestic routes and is used as an easy and quick way to get from the capital to major cities of the country. There are some international routes, like to Moscow and St. Petersburg, but time spent on the way will be quite long.

Buses are one of the most convenient ways to travel between the Baltic States. Eurolines will get you between Riga, Vilnius and Tallinn. One way tickets will cost £ 15 - £ 20 and approximate travel time is 5 hours between the cities. Ticket reservations in advance are recommended.

Taxis are the quickest and most convenient way of travelling round the city. You'll find them located close to the main hotels. Usually it's quite easy to catch a taxi on the street, however, it's much better and safer to order one by phone. Taxi costs in all of the Baltic countries and Poland are approximately the same and a ride in the centre of the city will cost you approx £ 5 - £ 7.  Taxis in Finland and Russia are considerably more expensive.  It is always a good idea to get your hotel to book a taxi for you and ask approximately how much the trip will cost before you get in.

We would not recommend you to take public transportation within the city, as it's usually crowded and it may cause you unnecessary anxiety about where to stop.
