We are a family-owned company with over 60 years of experience in Finnish Lakeland. From May to September, we operate cruises at both ends of Lake Päijänne, from Jyväskylä and Lahti, as well as along the Keitele-Päijänne Canal. Our wide selection includes scenic cruises and scheduled routes connecting lakeside villages, cities and attractions. We also offer cruise excursions to highlights such as Alvar Aalto architecture and the prehistoric Saraakallio rock paintings. We operate three vessels, including s/s Suomi, an authentic steamship that has sailed Lake Päijänne for 120 years. On board, beautiful lake scenery meets delicious local food and a relaxed atmosphere. Our selection ranges from shorter cruises and full-day experiences to tailor-made charter cruises.
