Today, on 10th of November the Port of Tallinn welcomes the cruise ship AIDAprima, operated by the German cruise line AIDA Cruises. The ship has brought around 3,600 passengers to explore autumnal Tallinn. The cruise began in Kiel, and after today’s stop in Tallinn, the vessel will depart at midnight for Helsinki.
AIDAprima is one of AIDA Cruises’ new-generation ships. The ship can accommodate up to 4,300 passengers and about 900 crew members. It is powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), making it one of the most environmentally friendly cruise ships sailing the Baltic Sea. Onboard, guests can enjoy a wide range of restaurants, spa and entertainment facilities, and a spacious glass-roofed promenade area designed for year-round comfort.
Local tour operator Estonian Holidays is organising traditional bus and walking tours to introduce guests to Tallinn’s medieval Old Town. Special excursions also reach Pirita, Kadriorg, and even Anija Manor outside the city. For those seeking something different, a late-night ghost tour – “Secrets and Mystery of Tallinn Old Town by Night” – offers a thrilling way to experience the city after dark.
This winter, five winter cruise calls are expected in total – two in November and three Christmas cruises in December. In addition to AIDAprima, the Port of Tallinn will also welcome Fred. Olsen Cruises’ vessel Borealis, bringing her guests to discover the charm of wintery Tallinn.
The Port of Tallinn continues its cooperation with international cruise lines to promote year-round cruise tourism and showcase the beauty and hospitality of Estonia’s capital beyond the summer season.
