Helsinki - Regal Princess July 18th - Shuttle to City Center?

[athibault]

Can anyone confirm if Princess will provide a shuttle ($$?)   to Helsinki city center?

 

Thank you

When we were there, we simply grabbed the City Bus a couple of blocks away from where cruise ship docked.

It's been 5 years, but at that time there was a shuttle at the pier which dropped us off a short distance from Market Square. It was inexpensive, maybe under 5 Euros RT, but I don't actually remember the cost. The lines were long for the early buses. We purchased the ticket on the pier.

We were there two years ago and there was a shuttle and fee of 5 euros per person each way.

We were on Regal last month, they did offer 4-stops shuttle, $20/p.   We saw the the shuttle bus sign when we got off the ship, sign up with them and charged it to the room.

I’m not sure if Princess arranges this or a local operator, eg port authority.  Drops you in city centre and you can walk to markets and trams

Thank you everyone for the quick response

We were there last May, and Princess had a shuttle.  They didn't charge us anything to get into the city centre.

We were there a week ago, and Princess offered a $15 or $20 pp 4 stop HOHO shuttle service. You can pay at the Shore Excursion office or when you board the bus. It was great and efficient for getting to the first stop, but at the end of the day, the drive took forever in traffic to get back and was 100% packed.

We were on Regal and Helsinki last week. Yes, Princess will have shuttle bus $19.95 per person. They will stop at 4 locations (market square, rock church, downtown and the park). There is also a HOHO bus by the port for $30 each, stop at 22 locations.  No need for any tour here. You can very much do everything on your own using shuttle bus or HOHO. Good luck and enjoy your cruise.
