Baltic cruise help wanted

[dakland]

Is there anyone out there that can give me some information on where Princess docks for the Baltic ports and access into the cities? Especially Tallinn, Helsinki, Stockholm and Gothenburg? Does Princess provide transportation into the city center? If so, is there a charge for this? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Feel free to email me at dajskent@yahoo.com as well. Thanks!

Tallinn and Helsinki are both walkable from the dock, for Stockholm and Gothenburg you will need to take a shuttle unless you are taking a tour.

Talin is walkable. In Helsinki, we did a tour and then left it to spend time on our own in the city. Princess had shuttles running from the city center so I assume they also had a shuttle running to the city for those not on a tour.

Recently I was in Gothenberg aboard Emerald Princess. We docked at the Volvo Museum, and it was a 29-25 minute shuttle into the city. The cost was about 20 Euros. Not walkable.

 

Royal/Regal Princess dock about 30 kilometers out of Stockholm so a shuttle is needed. All the other ships such as Emerald dock right in the inner harbour and it is walkable. It took us 20 minutes to walk into Old Town.

 

Tallin and Helsinki are walkable as mentioned.

On the link to my web site you'll find the Princess Patters for the Jul 26 - Aug 9 Baltic cruise. in them you'll also find flyers for shuttle service in different ports, port guides and more.

Thank you everyone for all of your help! It will definitely aid in the planning for my little group. Cruise critic members rock!

In Helsinki the HOHO bus will meet the ship and sell tickets there (and can process credit cards). Two loops, with one going back to the dock.

If you are considering a private tour, I can highly recommend SPB Tours in both Tallinn and Helsinki!
