- Aland Islands: Board a ferry to the enchanting Åland Islands, a unique cultural fusion of Finnish and Swedish influences. Here, the archipelago’s serene beauty invites exploration, from charming museums to peaceful vistas that encourage relaxation and reflection.
- Bothnian Bay: For an unforgettable summer experience, venture along the Bothnian Bay, tracing the coastal path from Vaasa to Umeå in Sweden. This captivating stretch is a haven for sea enthusiasts, offering a wealth of outdoor activities, from island hopping to scenic coastal hikes that celebrate the region’s natural beauty.
- Nordic Capitals Route: Expand your horizons by pairing your Finnish journey with an exploration of the Nordic capitals. Start in Copenhagen, continue to Oslo, then on to Stockholm, before arriving in Helsinki. This route seamlessly weaves together history, modernity and the breathtaking beauty of Northern Europe.
- The Arctic Route: Highlight your adventure with The Arctic Route, a scenic bus service connecting Finland and Norway. It’s a perfect addition to tailor-made itineraries, offering a convenient and picturesque way to experience the Arctic landscape, in summer or winter.
With Finland’s unique combination of natural beauty and cultural richness, a longer stay allows you to truly immerse yourself in the wonders of this Nordic nation.
10+ days: A deeper dive into Finland
For those with 10 or more days to explore, a longer holiday allows for full immersion into Finland’s diverse landscapes, from the southern cities to the remote beauty of Lapland. The extended time gives you the chance to explore Finland at a slower pace, soaking in its natural wonders and cultural richness.
- Lapland: Whether bathed in the glow of the Midnight Sun during summer or painted in the vivid hues of autumn, Lapland offers remarkable journeys into untouched beauty. Autumn, in particular, reveals Lapland at its finest, with fiery foliage and heightened Aurora Borealis displays as solar activity intensifies. Few places on Earth provide such privileged opportunities—watching the northern lights weave across the sky, embarking on reindeer safaris or meeting Sami communities to connect with traditions that have endured for generations.
- Public Transport and Sleeper Trains: Finland’s efficient public transport system makes it easy to explore the country’s vast landscapes. To add a unique dimension to your holiday, board one of Finland’s sleeper trains connecting cities like Helsinki, Tampere, Turku, Savonlinna, and Rovaniemi. These comfortable trains allow travellers to wake up in a new destination, be it the lively cultural scene of Turku or the snowy expanse of Rovaniemi.
- Multi-Country Itineraries: Extending your Arctic adventure from Finland is simple with convenient flights from Helsinki to Tromsø and Svalbard. These connections open a path to explore Norway’s remote Arctic landscapes, where pristine beauty and rare wildlife encounters await.
Longer stays in Finland allow for deeper cultural engagement, fostering sustainable travel practices and encouraging exploration beyond the typical tourist trail.
