    What our travellers are saying...

    Fantastic experience. We joined a tour to find Santa in Finland and it was just perfect. The guides (elves!), reindeers, the whole experience was just superb. Obviously our 3 years old daughter was all around the place, but it felt really good for us adults - it spoke to our inner child. Spoiler: we've also found Santa's cabin. Recommended!

    László

    We went to Lapland - it is a must! Just the most magical, unforgettable experience with brilliant memories (and fantastic photos) to last a lifetime. My children loved it and I can’t wait to return - hopefully one day with their children.

    Best Time to Visit Finland

    Spring Summer Autumn Winter
    See more photos

    Expect temperatures of around 10 degrees in most parts of the country from April to May.

    While you may find snow on the ground in the far north, spring is a pleasant time in Finland as the days start to get longer and the sun makes more of an appearance. However, that being said, you’ll still need to come prepared if you are planning to visit then. Layers are key if you are hoping to move around the country as well as make the transition from day to night.

    See more photos

    Expect temperatures of around 15-20 degrees in most parts of the country from June to August.

    Enjoy Finland’s long summer days and surprisingly warm weather. Around Helsinki, you can even expect the temperatures to rise above 20 degrees in July. Lapland is opened up to hikers, climbers, mountain bikers, you name it. Go bear spotting, hike the rugged countryside, or take a canoe out onto an idyllic, peaceful lake.

    See more photos

    Expect temperatures of around 15 degrees in September dropping to below 0 in November.

    Finland’s autumn colours make a wonderful entrance in September and October but don’t hang around for too long as the first snow starts to fall in October or November. Generally, the country is windy and wet in the autumn and it is not considered to be the best season to visit as temperatures start to fall significantly over the months.

    See more photos

    Expect temperatures below freezing, around -10 degrees in the south and extremes of up to -20 or -30 in the north.

    If you’re after snow, snow, more snow and the Northern Lights, then these months are your best bet. Head north and you can absolutely guarantee perfect conditions for skiing, snowmobiling and any other snow-based activity, and your chances of seeing the Northern Lights are at their very best – you won’t get a better time or place to see them anywhere, at any other time, in the world.

    Top tips for visiting Finland

    Take proper winter clothing – a thick waterproof coat, waterproof shoes, hat, gloves & scarf, don’t underestimate how cold it is.

    Visit Lapland: Whether you’re in search of Santa, the Northern Lights or a snowmobile adventure, Lapland is a totally unique area in Finland.

    Get sweaty in a sauna: The Finns take their saunas seriously and it is a weekly ritual for most households. You’ll find them in most houses!

    Everyman’s Rights: In Finland, you are encouraged to embrace nature; pick berries, go camping, but respect the environment and leave it as you found it.

    Look but don’t touch: If you are lucky enough to meet a reindeer during your visit, please don’t pet them. Petting is threatening to them.
