Ferries from Germany to Sweden

About Germany:

Germany is a large nation in west-central Europe, known for its spellbinding landscapes, rich history and iconic cuisine.

Aside from the stereotypical Bavarian culture of beer, sausage and pretzels found in the south, Germany is a hugely diverse country, offering something for everyone. The capital, Berlin has architectural masterpieces, the famous black forest covers the west, whilst the Alps on the southern border offer great skiing spots.

Remnants of the country’s long history can be found almost anywhere, too, whether you’re strolling past the Berlin Wall, touring a World War II museum or marvelling at a medieval hilltop fortress.

With a coastline stretching almost 2,500 kilometres, Germany has a wide selection of ports to choose from. There are numerous ferry routes provided to Scandinavia and the Baltic nations, making it an excellent transport hub for northeast Europe.

About Sweden:

Sweden is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe, sharing a lengthy western border with Norway and a shorter north-eastern border with Finland.

One of the European leaders for quality of life, Sweden is a beautiful nation in all aspects. The diversity of magical landscapes is one of its greatest assets, stretching from the sparse and snow-filled north, inhabited by the indigenous Sami people, to the lake-speckled central region and the high-energy, fashion-inspired capital city of Stockholm in the south.

A long Viking history has left its mark; ancient rune stones and huge burial mounds can be found throughout the country, all with their own fascinating story to tell, while the medieval cities and coastal castles add a further layer of mystery.

Sailing to Sweden by ferry is a common choice for visitors, thanks to the huge number of routes from various countries in northern Europe and Scandinavia, all operated by a wide choice of excellent ferry companies.
