NORDEUROPA 2023: With the ferry to Scandinavia

Ferry crossings in Scandinavia

Travelling through Scandinavia can be a wonderful and unique experience, with beautiful landscapes, rich culture and friendly locals. Ferries are a convenient and efficient way to travel around the Scandinavian countries and islands. They offer regular schedules and multiple departure points, so you can plan your trip to suit your own schedule. One of the biggest advantages of ferries in Scandinavia is the ability to visit multiple destinations in one trip. For example, you can take a ferry from Norway to Denmark and then on to Sweden or Finland. 

Another advantage is the ability to reach remote and hard-to-reach destinations. Ferries offer a unique experience off the beaten track to many of the islands in the region that are only accessible by ferry. Most ferries are also equipped with various facilities such as restaurants, cafés and shops, making the journey comfortable and enjoyable.
