[Just a note: this route is long and complex, and it requires taking two ferries. Although driving is an option, flying is highly recommonded]

From Edinburgh, you will drive to the Port of Tyne (North Shields), where you will take a ferry from NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, ENGLAND to AMSTERDAM, THE Netherlands at the Port of IJMUIDEN.

The route from Edinburgh to Newcastle-upon-Tyne is 125 miles taking this route:

2. Take A19 to the FERRY PORT, and follow signs to the CAR FERRY TERMINAL.

You will then take the NEWCASTLE-AMSTERDAM CAR FERRY to The Netherlands. The car ferry is operated by DFDS Seaways, and has 7 sailings weekly on a 15 1/2 hour journey. For more info, see the related link below:

You will then drive from Amsterdam, The Netherlands to LÜBECK, DEUTSCHLAND (Germany), where you will take another CAR FERRY from the Port of TRAVEMÜNDE to HELSINKI, Finland (Suomi).

1. Follow signs to the MOTORWAY (A9) towards AMSTERDAM, from the ferry port.
2. Take A9, around Amsterdam, to A1 AMERSFOORT at KNOOPUNT DIEMEN (Diemen Junction).
3. Take A1 across The Netherlands to DEUTSCHLAND (DE) [Germany], where the highway continues as bundesautobahn A30. You will be crossing from Oldenzaal, NL into Bad Bentheim, DE.
4. Continue on A30 to A1 HANNOVER at KREUZ LOTTE/OSNABRÜCK[Lotte Osnabrück Junction], at JCT 14 on A30.
5. Take A1 to A226 LÜBECK-TRAVEMÜDE to the SKANDENAVIENKAI FERRY TERMINAL at DREIECK BAD SCHWARTAU [Bad Schwartau Triangle Junction], at JCT 20 on A1.
6. Take A226 to B75 LÜBECK-TRAVEMÜNDE to the SKANDENAVIENKAI FERRY TERMINAL.
7. Continue on B75 to the SKANDENAVIENKAI FERRY TERMINAL, and follow signs to the FERRY TERMINAL to FINLAND (Suomi).

You will then take the TRAVEMÜNDE-HELSINKI CAR FERRY from Deutschland to Finland. The car ferry is operated by FINNLINES, and has 7 sailings weekly on a 27 1/2 hour crossing. For more info, see the related link below:
