Why Visit Finland?
Finland offers fantastic snow adventures and ski escapes for the solo traveller and yet it is a great place to go during the summer too, with its long day light hours and towering forests complimented by its perfect lakes. Finland is also the place to go if you would like to tick off seeing the spectacular Northern Lights! The best time of year to witness such a spectacle is during the winter months as the dark Arctic nights help with the sightings.
