To rent a car, a driver's license, at least 1 year of driving experience, a passport and a credit card as a deposit are required.

Finland is so close and so far at the same time. So familiar and so mysterious.

Despite the fact that Finland borders on three Russian regions - the Leningrad region, the Murmansk region and Karelia, this country is significantly different from Russia. You cross the border a little - and it seems that everything looks different ... Roads, houses, intersections, gas stations - all this is really different from what we are used to. But it seems that the forest, and the fields, and the rocks along the road, and the moss in the forest - everything around is more European!

It is nature that is considered the main attraction of Finland, and it is for natural beauty, for tranquility, for the comfort of Finnish cottages, for fishing on numerous lakes, that tourists come to Finland.

But for lovers of excursion routes, Finland has prepared a lot of interesting things! Of course, the most popular place among tourists is the capital of Finland. Helsinki. Getting to Helsinki is very easy from both St. Petersburg (by train or sightseeing bus) and from Moscow (by train from the Leningradsky railway station). Tours to Finland are especially popular for holidays: May, June and November. But Russian tourists are especially fond of going to Finland for the New Year holidays. A magnificently decorated city, a Christmas mood, chic New Year's banquets in hotels, and after the holidays - Christmas sales - all this awaits tourists when choosing a tour for the New Year to Finland.

Helsinki is a beautiful modern European city with interesting architecture, colorful locals, and unusual sights. "Heart of the city" - of course, Cathedral on Senate Square. Huge, majestic, it impresses at first sight. Its steps are a favorite place for young people and tourists!

Monument to the composer Jean Sibelius- one of the most visited tourist attractions. It is unusual: it consists of hundreds of pipes of different diameters. It looks unusual and grandiose. You will not see such a sculptural composition anywhere else!

Worth a visit and Suomenlinna fortress located on the island, and the city zoo, which is also located on the island (ferries go to both islands from the pier). Linnanmäki is a huge amusement park with a Ferris wheel from which the city is perfectly visible, SeaLife is an interesting oceanarium, where both bright fish from the southern seas and huge aquariums with shoals of herring are presented, there is also an aquarium with sharks - and a glass tunnel is made under it.

The Assumption Cathedral, the Evrika Popular Science Museum, the Design Museum, the amazing church in the rock - all the most interesting and beautiful things in Helsinki are difficult to cover in one, even the most intense, tour!

Most of the sights of Finland are concentrated in the capital, but this does not mean that the rest of the country's cities are not worth visiting! The cities of Finland - both large and small, charming and well-groomed, it is pleasant to walk around them at any time of the year and soak up the feeling of calmness and peace that reign there.

Holidays in Finland are also trips to the north of the country, to Lapland to the home of Santa Claus! Kids love these tours! And adults are also happy to plunge into a fairy tale, ride a reindeer sled, stand an igloo from the snow, play snowballs and make wishes!

Visa to Finland necessary for the Russians. But the Finnish visa regime for Russians works according to a simplified scheme. The easiest way to get a Finnish visa is for residents of the Leningrad region, Karelia and the Murmansk region. But for tourists from other regions, a visa to Finland is not a problem, it does not require certificates from work (as for other Schengen visas), the procedure for submitting documents is simple, but it is easiest to order a visa from a travel company when buying a tour - in this case The likelihood of visa rejection is minimal.

For many tourists, a trip to Finland is not only excursions, but also shopping! In shops in Finland you can buy anything you want. Most often they buy children's and adult winter clothes and shoes, environmentally friendly products, eco household chemicals - goods from Finland are always of good quality, some goods have a symbol - a key with the flag of Finland, which means that the goods are intended for the domestic market and are not exported. Tourists prefer such goods (you can't buy them in Russia!) in the first place. Prices in Finland are not low, but during the sales period there are very good discounts, and shopping is profitable.

To date, among the residents of the northwestern region, the most popular is a trip for 1 day to Finland by minibus from home to home. Passengers who have ever traveled to Finland on big metro buses are well aware of the benefits of traveling to Finland from home to home (from address to address). And it really is the same as going to Finland by taxi. You do not need to get to the subway, but on the way back you need to carry bags with purchases on your own two. Having traveled to Finland in the mode from home to home (from address to address), any person will feel the difference, because we are traveling with a group of up to 8 people in a minibus.

This is a really good option for opening a visa, buying all sorts of overseas stuff, and at the same time unwinding by walking along the quiet streets of a rather boring Finland. And here our company is a good assistant to you in this!

Travel options in Finland

We can offer you a trip to Finland for 1 day from your home in the following areas:

By clicking on a specific direction, you can find information about it in more detail. For now, I can only say that all these voyages are not at all tiring and are always fun and relaxed. And most importantly, with benefit!

During a trip to Finland for 1 day, in addition to visiting various "holy" (for the local population) places, you will have a great opportunity to buy a little in the border shops of Finland, such as: "Laplandia Market", "Disa's Fish", "Scandinavian Market" ", "Lidl", "Rajamarket", etc. Believe me, there is something to see and buy to please yourself, to spite the neighbors. These are food products, first of all, and things of all world brands, tires and car accessories (which is really profitable to buy there), goods for home and for summer cottages. And much more. A trip to Finland for 1 day is a great opportunity to have a good time while visiting abroad and buying delicious products.

No trip to Finland from home by minibus is complete without a visit to the little cozy cafe at Disa's Fish. Designers worked there local and it immediately catches the eye. But what an ear!!! I advise you to try it, especially since there is a more impressive toilet right next to it. Completely free, by the way. Then everything is only for the currency.

Now a few words about the trips to Finland for 1 day from home to home. What are the charms of such tours and how is it different from trips on large fifty-seater buses?

Benefits of traveling to Finland by minibus from home

Well, first of all: we pick up passengers from home and return home safe and sound. You do not need to get to the place of boarding the bus early in the morning. The number of people is limited by the cabin capacity, i.e. each minibus accommodates from 7 to 9 people. Therefore, the fees are not so long. It is always easier to travel with a smaller group, it is easier to negotiate, you can painlessly fulfill any whim of a (sane) passenger.
Secondly: due to the fact that a minibus is considered a passenger car, we pass our and Finnish borders much faster than these "heavyweights" by 50 people. As a rule, even on the most very holidays, this whole procedure takes no more than an hour.
The third reason to travel to Finland on a home-to-home basis. There is no fat and ugly-colored aunt here; guide, always yelling and swearing at all passengers. No one slips bags of cigarettes and alcohol on anyone, in a word, everything happens quietly and peacefully, as it should be during a tour to Finland for 1 day.
