Hello all,

Having spent the best part of the last year living in Moscow, I'm now preparing to head back to the UK in early June. My plan is to go via Helsinki and I was hoping to take a ferry. I'm having trouble finding any recent information about ferry timetables (and indeed if they are still running - I'm aware that they have been on and off for a while...) or whether it would be better to take a bus or train and leave by land.

Any info./links provided will be much appreciated,

N

PS. I'm planning to leave from St. Petersburg (I imagine a ferry from Moscow would be difficult to organise...)

All I know is there have been ferries this year, about 3 months ago. As you said it's been on and off.
No, something else: There are some ferries planned for this summer. Have you tried to call some companies: maybe this one in Saint Petersburg? http://www.tais.spb.ru/en/
