Welcome to the happiest country in the world. Finland is a land of dramatic contrasts, where the Northern Lights dance over snowy Lapland peaks in winter and the Midnight Sun bathes the lakes in endless golden light during summer. Whether you want to sleep in a glass igloo, meet Santa Claus in Rovaniemi, or explore the frozen sea in Oulu, our Finland tour packages offer the ultimate Arctic adventure.
Best Time to Visit Finland
Finland is a year-round destination, but each season offers a completely different experience.
Winter (December – March): The Arctic Wonderland
This is the peak season for Lapland tourism. The landscape is covered in thick snow, making it perfect for:
- Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis): Visible on clear nights in Rovaniemi, Ivalo, and Oulu.
- Unique Stays: Sleep under the stars in a Glass Igloo.
- Activities: Husky safaris, reindeer sleigh rides, and meeting Santa Claus.
Summer (June – August): The Midnight Sun
In summer, the sun never sets in Lapland. It is the time for nature lovers to explore Finland’s 188,000 lakes.
- Lakeland Adventures: Rent a cottage, go fishing, or enjoy a traditional Finnish sauna by the lake.
- City Culture: Explore Helsinki’s design district or the vibrant market squares.
- Coastal Life: Visit the world’s largest archipelago and enjoy island hopping.
Autumn (September – November): The “Ruska” Season
Autumn is Finland’s best-kept secret. The forests turn vibrant shades of red and gold (known as “Ruska”), and the Northern Lights season begins as the nights get darker.
