Very clean and comfortbale journey.…
Very clean and comfortbale journey. A lot of space and different seats.
For 34 euros (per adult) and 18 euros (per child), you could but an access to bufet, and eat whatever you like. There was a big choice and it was very delicious.
I recommend it to anyone who want to come to Helsinki from Tallin or the other was around :))

The ferry is fine and on time. The waiting time for boarding is very long; it could be shorter or faster. The ship Viking XPRS is pleasant and quiet.
