Spend a summer afternoon aboard s/s Suomi, Finland’s largest operating passenger steamship on inland waters! Built in 1906, this historic steamship takes you on a three-hour lunch cruise from Jyväskylä through the beautiful archipelago of northern Lake Päijänne. Admire the sunlight sparkling on the water as you sail past lush green islands, summer cottages and picturesque shorelines.

The ship’s historic interiors and old-world atmosphere truly take you back in time. Discover more than a century of fascinating stories in the onboard exhibition showcasing the history of s/s Suomi. Chat with the steam engineer about the ship’s steam-powered machinery or visit the bridge with the captain’s permission to see how this historic vessel is navigated.

A highlight of the cruise is our generous lunch buffet, a long-time favourite among guests. Prepared in the ship’s own kitchen, the buffet features Finnish flavours and locally sourced ingredients. Enjoy a leisurely lunch in the traditional onboard restaurant while admiring the lake scenery, perhaps accompanied by a glass of wine. Lunch guests have restaurant seats reserved during their meal; on busy cruises, lunch may be served in several sittings. The onboard café and bar also serve coffee, pastries, ice cream and refreshing drinks.
