Helsinki, Finland Port Reviews

Sadly our itinerary was swapped and we had less time here than we were supposed to. However we managed to walk from port to the market place and visit Soumenlinna Fortress by taking one of the regular ferries. It was about 40 minutes walk each way but that helped some calories!! The Fortess was well worth visiting (it’s free other than the ferry ride). Excellent market and great cathedrals (Catholic and Russian Orthodox next door to each other)

Beware of the seagulls trying to eat your food! I lost a plate of moose meatballs to an attacking seagull. We did a harbor boat tour. It was just ok

We dock at the port of goods about 3 km from the city. Free wifi is available at the port. We took the following excursion: Helsinki Highlights. Made 3 stops: Senate Square, Temppeliaukio Rock Church and Sibelius Monument. Not so bad!

Helsinki is a really nice place with lots of shopping centers.

Loved this one!

Suomenlinna is very easy to get to from here, I wouldn't take the excursion since its an easy ferry ride on your own.

The was the highlight of the travel experience.

Another favorite. Great excursion
