Finland Tours & Trips

Home to saunas, Santa Claus and the Northern Lights, it's not hard to see why Finland is named the Happiest Country in the World. Whether you want to ride a reindeer through the snow-filled forests of Lapland, celebrate the summer solstice at a Midsummer Festival in Helsinki, or be immersed by the tranquillity of the Finnish Lakeland, the cold weather is contrasted by warm locals who have a glass of glögi with your name on it. Combine your adventure of Finland with a Norway and Sweden vacation package for a true Nordic experience.

Tips

  • Don’t be surprised to see people walking with poles. Nordic Walking is a common activity in this country.

  • Be careful near cliff edges and waterfalls as there may not be safety rails or ropes.
  • Don’t make comparisons of Finland with Sweden and other neighboring countries while talking to Icelanders.
  • Remember to place your order at the bar and then head to a table. Avoid waiting for a server especially if you’re in a rush.

  • If you’re invited for a meal, don’t leave before kahvi (coffee) and pulla (bun) are served.
  • Remember to remove your shoes and place them outside before you enter a house.
