Helsinki Christmas Market | Ferry from Tallinn to Helsinki


The Helsinki Christmas Market wasn't on my radar when I was taking a trip through Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia -- bottom line, it should have been. This Christmas Market is massive, the vendors and artists are so friendly, and there are so many unique Christmas gifts to collect here (I legit had issues with my luggage being over weight). Taking a day trip to the Helsinki Christmas Market from Tallinn Estonia is VERY easy, you can hit both Christmas Markets in 48 hours and have an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime. Make sure to check out the links below for details on both markets, what to pack for the Helsinki Christmas Market, things you NEED to know before visiting, and how to save money on your trip there and back.

Leavenworth Washington Fall Colors & Bavarian Christmas Village


Wooden homes expertly lined with flowers, and Christmas lights and surrounded by the imposing cascade mountains feel like a European Grandma's hug when you walk into Leavenworth. Leavenworth is a Bavarian-themed village filled to the brim with adventures, cultural quirks, and a Christmas like you see in movies. There are plenty of things to do in Leavenworth Washington all year round.
