Get Ship-Wrecked!

Although people lament having to spend money on overpriced drinks aboard the major cruise lines (the ones that aren’t all-inclusive, at least), this isn’t true for all cruises. Numerous ships (such as Viking Lines) run between Stockholm and Helsinki, where almost all the passengers are there for the sole purpose of drinking cheap, tax-free booze. Since guests pay less than they would onshore for beverages and food, and can book four people to a standard cabin for much less than the price of a hotel room on land, these trips make for the perfect overnight getaway for partiers. It’s even cheaper than a flight, in most cases, and it sure beats the hassles of air travel!
