Lake cruises are an excellent way to admire the views of Kuopio and the spectacular scenery of the Finnish Lakeland. You can book ahead or simply walk to the Kuopio passenger port on a sunny day (or why not a rainy day too?) and choose your departure from various choices.
City & Islands tour, m/s Queen R 1,5h
