Experience a Finnish summer evening aboard the authentic steamship s/s Suomi, which has sailed Lake Päijänne for over 120 years! Departing from Jyväskylä Harbour, this three-hour cruise takes you through the beautiful archipelago of northern Lake Päijänne, past green islands, lakeside cottages and shimmering waters in the evening light.

Step out on deck, enjoy the gentle lake breeze and discover the charm of travelling on a historic steamship. You can chat with the steam engineer about the ship’s fascinating machinery or, with the captain’s permission, visit the bridge to discover where and how this authentic steamship is operated. The unique atmosphere of s/s Suomi and the peaceful lake scenery make the journey an experience in itself.

Complete your evening with a generous dinner buffet prepared in the ship’s own kitchen, featuring Finnish flavours and locally sourced ingredients. Enjoy your meal with views of Lake Päijänne, perhaps accompanied by a glass of wine. The onboard bar also serves cocktails and refreshing drinks. Dinner guests have restaurant seats reserved for their meal; on busy evenings, dinner may be served in several sittings.
