Finland

Finland brings together pristine forests, crystal-clear lakes and the Northern Lights with world-class design, private saunas and understated luxury. It is a secluded retreat unlike any other — the ideal destination for sophisticated travellers seeking both nature and refinement in equal measure.

Explore Helsinki, the design capital, where Nordic minimalism meets gourmet cuisine, elegant boutiques and a beautiful waterfront. Then experience Lapland, a luxurious frosty wonderland made for a once-in-a-lifetime winter escape — think glass igloos, exclusive wilderness lodges, private reindeer or husky sleigh rides, a visit to Father Christmas, and the mystical Aurora Borealis overhead.

Finland has two very distinct travel seasons, a snowy winter and a bright, green summer, each offering a completely different holiday.

Trains and buses connect Finland's destinations comfortably and affordably, while domestic flights, private cars and taxis suit travellers who prioritise distance and time. Since Helsinki and Lapland are far apart, flying between the two is by far the most convenient option.

Within and around Lapland, private transfers are recommended for a smoother journey, tailored to your accommodation, activities and the season of travel.

Travenza tip: Domestic flights are the easiest way to cover the distance between Helsinki and Lapland, the drive is long, so book the connecting flight rather than trying to do it by road.

For travellers seeking peace and quiet, snow-covered landscapes, stunning Northern Lights displays, unique Scandinavian culture and accommodation like no other, Finland promises the ultimate holiday. Its clear waters, calm way of life and profound closeness to the land combine to create a wonderfully elegant and unforgettable trip.
