I don’t think my journey could have improved. The check-in was seamless. The dock was immaculate and tidy. Ticketing was simple and well explained. The ferry was clean and spotless. The food options were varied and of good quality. I would highly recommend

5 out of 5 stars

It was a great day and I would highly recommend that if anyone is taking that day trip that they should organize a walking tour while they’re there. Estonia is a country rich in history and gaining added context really enriches the experience.

5 out of 5 stars

The ferry is great. On the way back we did the buffet. Great food, drinks, and views. It was raining a lot so we did a hop on hop off bus tour in Tallinn. It was too bad that we couldn’t explore the city more.

5 out of 5 stars

It was a great day out, and the crossing was comfortable. Highly recommended!
