Allegro Train

Allegro is a high-speed train service between Helsinki, Finland, and St. Petersburg, Russia.

We had decided to stop in Helsinki first before going on to St Petersburg. After reading some reviews about the Allegro Train we booked 2nd class tickets. We tried to upgrade to first class but they were sold out which was actually good because the 2nd class was great! We had comfortable seats, had a great lunch in the dining car, did immigrations & customs while on the train so once we arrived in St Petersburg we just walked out of the station. No lines, no waiting, no fuss. It was the fastest 3.5 hours ever along with a delightful experience! We highly recommend this and 2nd class is great!!

Santa Claus Express

The Finnish double-decker night train, known as the Santa Claus Express, travels from Helsinki to snow-covered Lapland in the north. The train stops at Rovaniemi, the official home of Santa Claus, and then goes on to Kemijärvi, its final destination. See the beauty of Finland from the comfortable compartments of this train and wake up above the Arctic Circle the next morning.

My 6yo twins and I travelled the 23:00 train. Cosy but comfortable. The water was a bit hit and miss in the bathroom. We had an upper deck cabin and waking to a white winterland sunrise at 10:30 was spectacular! We flew back...and super pleased we took the train to Rovaniemi on the way up. Highly recommend, super experience.
