MSC Cruises excursions offer plenty of exciting things to see including: 

 

· The Exquisite Tuomiokirkko

· Helsinki Cruise Discovery

· Finnish Nature Centre Haltia

 

Helsinki, affectionately called the 'White City of the North', is known for its elegant architecture, crafted from aesthetically-pleasing pale granite. On an MSC Cruises excursion, you’ll venture to the old town centre, home of Senate Square and the Lutheran Helsinki Cathedral. Neoclassical in style and shaped like a Greek cross, its rooftop boasts statues of the Twelve Apostles. A tall green dome, surrounded by four smaller ones, is a distinctive city landmark.

 

Admire Helsinki from the water on a romantic MSC Cruises excursion. You’ll enjoy a leisurely cruise through the beautiful landscapes of this amazing archipelago. Photograph Suomenlinna, an 18th-century UNESCO World Heritage Site fortress, before admiring villas set in stunning natural landscapes. A guide will describe the views as you enjoy a complimentary glass of sparkling wine or a delicious cup of coffee.

 

Visit the Finnish Nature Centre Haltia on an MSC Cruises excursion — an exhibition and events facility surrounded by majestic rural landscapes. Heated and cooled using solar power and geo-energy, the site houses stunning interactive displays. Admire recreations of the southern archipelago, 40 of Finland's national parks, and the snowy hills of Lapland.
