Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival in Stockholm!
Welcome to Stockholm, Sweden! Upon arrival, make your way to the hotel (unless you have pre-booked a transfer with us) for check-in and enjoy a day of leisure. Built on 14 islands with 57 bridges, Stockholm blends stunning architecture, lush greenery, and waterfront charm. Home to the world’s first National City Park, it offers a rich 750-year history, world-class museums, and walkable attractions - where city life, history, and nature meet in a day.
Day 2
Stockholm at Leisure
Today, you’ll have the entire day to explore Stockholm at your leisure, or you can join an optional tour through Sweden's canals. Enjoy guided commentary in 10 languages via your smartphone or onboard headphones. Be sure to bring your device and headphones, and keep your battery charged. Free Wi-Fi is available onboard.
During the optional canal tour, you’ll discover Stockholm’s green side as you cruise through the Djurgarden canal, part of the Royal National City Park. Take in views of historic landmarks, museums, and the city skyline, and visit the Princess Estelle Sculpture Park, featuring works by leading contemporary artists.
Day 3
Cruise to Tallinn, Estonia
Stockholm (Sweden) → Tallinn (Estonia). After breakfast, you’ll have the morning free to explore Stockholm at your own pace — perhaps wandering through the cobbled streets of Gamla Stan, enjoying a fika at a local café, or visiting one of the city’s fascinating museums.
In the afternoon, make your way to the cruise terminal (or pre-book an optional private transfer). Check-in closes at 16:15, boarding begins at 16:30, and the ship departs at 17:30 for your overnight voyage across the Baltic Sea.
Settle into your cabin aboard the Silja Serenade or Silja Symphony and enjoy the onboard facilities — bars, restaurants, tax-free shops, a casino, and live international entertainment. A generous buffet dinner with drinks is included as you sail through the beautiful Swedish archipelago toward Estonia.
Day 4
Discover Tallinn
You’ll arrive in Tallinn at approximately 10:30 a.m. After disembarking, make your way to your hotel (optional private transfer available).
Spend the rest of the day exploring Estonia’s charming capital at your leisure. Stroll through the winding streets of the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and admire the medieval towers and colorful merchant houses. Visit Toompea Castle and the grand St. Alexander Nevski Orthodox Cathedral, then relax in the tranquil Kadriorg Park, home to the exquisite Kadriorg Castle built by Peter the Great.
Day 5
Tallinn at Leisure
Today, enjoy a relaxed morning to explore more of Tallinn or unwind at a local café.
If you’d like to experience Estonia through its cuisine, you can join the optional 3-Hour Estonian Food Tour. You’ll sample local flavors at 6–7 unique stops — from a medieval tavern and cozy cafés to a chocolate museum and the Baltic Station Market. As you taste seasonal dishes and drinks, your guide will share stories of Estonian history and culture while leading you through the Old Town and the creative Kalamaja district.
Day 6
Cruise to Helsinki, Finland
Tallinn (Estonia) → Helsinki (Finland). This morning, you’ll have the morning free to enjoy Tallinn at your own pace — perhaps visiting a museum, browsing for souvenirs, or relaxing in one of the city’s parks.
In the afternoon, make your way to the Tallinn cruise terminal (or book an optional private transfer). Check-in closes at 18:30, and your ferry departs at 19:30 for a scenic two-hour crossing to Helsinki. Enjoy views of the Baltic coastline as you sail toward Finland’s stylish capital.
Upon arrival, transfer on your own to your hotel and settle in for the evening.
Day 7
Exploring Helsinki

You can explore independently or join the optional 24-hour Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour (replaced by the Panorama Sightseeing tour in some seasons). The route covers 19 stops, including Senate Square, the striking Temppeliaukio Church (the Church in the Rock), and the Sibelius Monument. The full loop takes around 90 minutes, with commentary available in 11 languages, and your ticket is valid for 24 hours — giving you the flexibility to discover the city at your own pace.
