Silja Line

My first cruising ship trip ever! I remember I was quite excited about this. Silja Line is one of the ferry line travel between Stockholm, Helsinki, Tallinn and some other cities. In my case, I was heading to Tallinn, The ticket is actually cost less than I expected, the ticket I got was included breakfast buffet and dinner buffet, the food was amazing, I will get to that later on the review. It took around 5 hours from one to the other side. It was quite a long as first I thought. But the ship actually holds quite a lot interesting thing to do, there have a like a supermarket size of the taxes free shop. Lots of people from Finland will shop for drinks here, since the price is much cheaper than inside the city. I have heard about this before, but I was still a bit amazed when I actually saw it.
I went to the sun deck to check out the view. It was just breathtakingly beautiful and romantic. Great view of each city. It could be a bit windy though, so don’t forget to take a jacket or small blanket there. Now let’s talk about the food. The two buffets I had was just brilliant. They were so many choices of the buffets and many of them, especially seafood. Of course, besides that, they also offered some others. There were couple different restaurant there, I have the dinner buffet from the silja its own restaurant. There were many different styles, i could say that was probably one of the best buffets I had. If it isn’t included in your ticket, simply just go to front entrance of the restaurant. They sell ticket there.
I really like Tallinn as well, very different compared with Helsinki, even this two cities aren’t so far for each other. Tallinn is very historical and cultural. If you also planning to visit it from Helsinki, Silja line could be great choice.

I enjoyed the Silja cruise line from Sweden to Finland. The rooms were not very big but well organized. Though the ship was not large but the amount of entertainment and shops was sufficient enough for overnight entertainment. There’s clothing and souvenir shops as well as plenty of dining options to choose from. The cruise line has a small casino and a club/​dance room with live band and two showings of a singing/​dancing show. The buffet had a good variety of food and the seafood was fresh, though the dinner buffet was on the expensive side. Unlimited beer/​red/​white wine though! My favorite part was the extremely large duty free shop which I regret not buying enough from! They also had a huge moomin (+ other Finnish designed) items that were exclusive to the ship. (CHEAPER ON THE CRUISE THAN IN FINLAND I TELL YOU!!) overall the staff was welcoming and Silja does a good job entertaining their guests with a variety of entertainment.
