What makes this destination worth visiting? For starters, forests, lakes, urban cities and the Northern lights! Finland is in the deep north of Europe and borders Russia and Sweden. While not part of Scandinavia (a region consisting of Sweden, Denmark and Norway), the country shares many similarities with its northern neighbours, without losing its uniquely Finnish identity. Helsinki, the capital of Finland is the largest city in Finland. Located on the North coast facing the Baltic Sea, there are more than 300 islands in the surrounding area. Helsinki has charming architecture and even something for the foodies. Browse its museums, such as the Finnish National Museum of Art and the Olympic Museum or take a stroll in Central Park. Head into the countryside, pick berries and mushrooms or get active with some hiking or kayaking.

People in Finland speak Finnish and Swedish is a second language. Finnish food includes wholemeal products like rye and barley. Berries and dairy are also commonly used in dishes. Be sure to try dishes like Flatbread, cinnamon buns (or Korvapuusti), Lingonberry porridge and blueberry pie on your Finland coach trip!
