Helsinki - St Petersburg

[Kingfisher200262]

Help! I need to accompany some Chinese visitors through some European travel in a couple of weeks. There are some parts that I've not done before and I'm really struggling.

Does anybody know how to book tickets for the Allegro service that operates between Helsinki and St Petersburg?

Thanks for any advice in advance.
