Where does Viking Line leave from in Stockholm?
Which terminal Viking Line uses and how it differs from Tallink Silja.
Short answer
Viking Line ferries leave from the Stadsgården terminal in Stockholm, at Tegelvikshamn, SE-11630 Stockholm, according to Ports of Stockholm and Viking Line. Tallink Silja uses a different terminal, Värtahamnen at Hamnpirsvägen 10. Birka Gotland cruises also depart from the Viking Line terminal. Check the terminal in your booking confirmation.
Why
- Ports of Stockholm says all Viking Line ferries, as well as Birka Gotland cruises, depart from the Viking Line terminal.
- Ports of Stockholm says Viking Line runs ferry terminals at Stadsgården, quays 163 and 164, with extensive ferry traffic to Finland.
- Viking Line gives the harbour address as Stadsgården, Tegelvikshamn, SE-11630 Stockholm on its harbour information page.
Details
Ports of Stockholm notes a meeting point for passengers with special needs at the terminal and links to a map of it. Viking Line says the terminal opens no later than 90 minutes before departure and that all terminals and car check-ins accept card payment only. Tallink Silja's check-in at Värtahamnen is open 05:45 to 17:30 every day.
