Fun fact: Helsinki has the busiest passenger harbour in Europe.. well at least pre covid-19 it was. The main reason are the tens of thousands of Estonians living/working in Finland, plus the Northern Europeans love these short "cruises". The biggest ferries sail on the Helsinki-Stockholm route.
The number of Trucks that coming from Poland up via the Baltic states to Finland and down again have exploded the last decade. There really need to be a link connection at this place.
@@fiactional Just meant for quick ride? Have you used all 3 companys and all ships or you just talking random shit? I have used all what are floating Tallinn-Helsinki and Tallinn- Stockholm+ one Helsinki Stockholm.
@@rapator9270 I have been on all Tallink's, Viking Line's and Eckerö Line's current ships between Helsinki and Tallinn (except freight ships). I have never seen Program on Star or Megastar and Silja Europa can't be considered as one of "latest" ships. And as we began to talk about our previous experience. I have been on all the ships (except freight) going between Helsinki and Tallinn, Helsinki and Stockholm, Tallinn and Stockholm & Turku and Stockholm. Have a nice day! :3
@@rapator9270 When have I said that program equals to ship quality? The fact that Tallink's Megastar is the newest ship going the route doesn't mean that others have not quality. Of course it is always a prop for a cruise to have program so it is not so boring to just hang out for two hours and maybe eat something.
My wife got to experience the ferry about 7 years ago but we’re headed to Helsinki in December 2023 on a home exchange so we’ll definitely be taking the ferry over to Tallinn. Looks amazing.
I am Estonian-Finnish and i can honestly say you could also keep your luggage in the safe room aswell or a locker. Its about 2-5€ depending on the ferry. I have never been ripped off or seen it happen to a tourist(im 25 now so years of having to get ferrys). But if you need the quiet time and also with little kids it is better to get a cabin. 🙂 Great vlogs!
I had a ride to Tallin with the same ship. It was really stormy winter night. The Baltic sea was extremely waving at that night. Also, I wanted to look around on the open deck. The wind was too strong to fly me over from the ship. I was nearly dead. I am looking forward to my next trip with this ship!
Eckerö line - has an Great History ! Eckerö is situated on the Åland Islands ! The Islands - between Sweden and Finland is Åland ! Eckerö is the shortest way - after open sea to - inbetween Sweden to Finland ! The Mail carrying - was done thru there - thruout 12 months ! The Sea could be rough & diffycult - at winters - so the shortest way is the best " rowing " !
The ferries in Scandinavia, north Europe, are really popular! Especially because of the tax free shop. ;) I know alot of Swedes go on the ferry to Finland yearly, same with Finns going to Sweden. A small history trivia, both Finland and Estonia was once part of Sweden. In Estonia that period is sometimes called "Good old Swedish times", or in Estonian "vana hea Rootsi aeg".
Nice video! Yes, M/s Finlandia is a good choice. And on ferry there is also lounge, it is good option as well. It costs 24-29 euros (weekends 29) , comfortable seat, they offer sweet and savory snacks, fruits, coffee tea, soft drinks, wine and beer…And all inclusive.
Dogs & cats , hamsters etz. travel for free. Buffet 15€ was breckfast buffet. Dinner is about 35-45€. Drinks (wine, beer, soft, coffee and service includes).
Both countries are in the Schengen Area so there is no border control. You have to have some kind of valid ID but no, you don’t show your passport like you would flying into a non-Schengen country.

Helsinki is the busiest and Tallinn is the 3rd busiest.

Tallink have nicest and latest ships. Ecerö and Viking line have cheapest rides.
Well, Eckerö and Viking have also program and Tallink is just meant for quick crossing.

I know M/S Finlandia like the back of my hand. Chances are you guys stayed at the very same cabin I have been.
Amazingly affordable and exciting , thankyou Ash and Jordan for a great little trip

Thanks for the trivia tips! We definitely noticed the shops on the ferry so that makes sense. Thanks for watching!
So, briefly, was much of Ukraine (a long time ago)

Have you ever heard of Silja Europa?
Also by the way the cost of putting ur baggage in that safe place it would cost you about 5 euros until you take it out.
Please don't cross streets when there is red light. @7:39

We love Finland!
I'm going to tallinn in 4 days with eckherö line. I don't know how to spell it though
Todella huippu videon olette tehneet Tallinnasta, sekä hyvä esittely eri matkakohteista.
Great video! May I asked restaurants were expensive in Estonia?
I don't recall them being expensive. In fact, I remember them being affordable for the high quality restaurants you can dine at.
@@KeepGoingPlaces Thank you!
MS Silja Europa is next?
Eckerö Line is very good car ferry 👍👍🇫🇮🇫🇮❤❤
Agreed!
Hello, I am a Turkish citizen. Is there a visa check on the ferry from Tallinn to Helsinki?
No there is no visa check since you're travelling within schengen area.
It's a hard job sometimes and challenging at.yimes so have a.good time oh lonely at time???😘
Did you all have to show a passport to ride the ferry?
Both countries are in the Schengen Area so there is no border control. You have to have some kind of valid ID but no, you don’t show your passport like you would flying into a non-Schengen country.

It's nice
I work on boats for 22 yrs
This kinda amusing since these ferries are super normal in finland.. That particular ship isnt even anything special
Lol well they were certainly entertaining to us! Thanks for watching!
Best ferries are Tallinks, Eckerö is one of the cheapest and boring.
Eckerö LIne is worst ferry. Bad food and dirty. Better choose Tallink or Viking Line
