SILJA LINE
Best Cruising on the Baltic Sea
Silja Line is well known as luxury European cruise ferry company even in Japan. I suppose Silja is the best ferry line in the world. I show you Silja Line from Silja Line's brochure.
Silja Europa
Unforgettable experiences on the sparkling Baltic
The most fabulous fleet around
In Scandinavia sea travel is a way of life. The sparkling Baltic Sea is an intrinsic part of both the Nordic landscape and spirit. Silja Line has the most fabulous fleet around, ranging from deluxe cruise liners to smaller, cozy vessels.
Midnight summer magic
In the summer the sun hardly sets at all in the north. And in southern Finland night seems to fall, instead a light veil of dusk gently mingles with the rising sun. The dreamlike atmosphere and the breathtaking beauty of the archipelago will make this experience unforgettable!
Santa's Official Seacarrier
Silja ships sail steadily winter and summer alike. It is truly a special sensation to sail along the narrow waterway amid the ice. During the Christmas season the Silja fleet dons its Yuletide attire and is tranformed into a winter wonderland. The buffet is laden with traditional Finnish Christmas dishes and if you are lucky, you might meet Santa Claus and his elves. Silja Line is the Official Seacarrier of Santa Claus and even Santa likes to fill his sacks with reasonably priced Silja tax free products.
Time to relax
A Silja cruise is a relaxing experience. There is ample time for sightseeing in your port of call. On board one of Silja's luxury cruise liners you can relax, have fun, shop and feast. And spending the night in a comfortable cabin is like an overnight stay in a first-class hotel.
