Cruise to Tallinn
The perfect early summer getaway to Tallinn!
Set sail to enjoy the summer atmosphere on a 22-hour cruise to Tallinn, just in time for Midsummer. This getaway offers the perfect escape from everyday life: the sea, the sun, and a relaxed vacation vibe await you right from the moment you leave the harbor.
A delicious buffet, entertainment, and a relaxing atmosphere await you on board. It’s easy to unwind there—enjoy the seasonal flavors of the buffet, relax in the spa, sip on refreshing summer drinks, or let yourself be swept away by the ship’s live music and summer entertainment.
In the morning, you’ll arrive in Tallinn, where you’ll have a few hours to wander around and do some summer shopping. Tallinn’s seaside atmosphere is at its best during Midsummer week—there’s plenty of light, and the city charms with its summer energy.
The 22-hour cruise is the perfect way to combine a sea adventure with a quick city break—an easy, memorable, and just-the-right-length escape from everyday life.
