Complete Travel Guide: Finland

📍Location Details (Tallinn): 1) Tallinn is a medieval old town in Estonia, and it’s listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 2) Patkuli Viewing Platform: A great photo spot with a panoramic view of the old town. 📸 3) Balti Jaam Market: Head to the street food area for affordable and delicious lunch options! 😋 📍Location Details (Rovaniemi): 1) Suggested route for Santa Claus Village: Meet-and-greet with Santa Claus → Reindeer ride → Santa’s Salmon Place → Husky ride at Bearhill Husky * Following this order saved me a lot of time. * Husky ride: Book in advance as the slots are limited. ‼️ 2) Northern Lights Tour: We joined the @Lorenzmira_lapland tour (not sponsored) and he is incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated in aurora hunting! 3) Sauna + Ice Bath at Apukka Resort: We had a private sauna cabin, and were lucky to enjoy it under shooting stars. ✨ Ice bath was definitely a bucket-list moment! 💪🏻 🚋 Transportation 1) HSL App: Purchase day tickets for public transport in Helsinki to save money. Ticket zone AB was enough for all my destinations. The navigation feature is super useful as well. 2) Tallink–Silja Ferry: Adding the breakfast buffet was worth every single cent. 3) VR Overnight Train: I bought the ticket early in advance to save money. 4) Waltti Mobiili App: Check bus schedules in Rovaniemi. I had no issues buying tickets directly from the bus driver with a credit card. 🛌 Accommodation 1) Citybox Helsinki: It’s not too far from the city center and the price was very reasonable! 2) Guesthouse Borealis: Next to the train station, and walkable to the city center. 🚶 #travel #guide #finland #rovaniemi #helsinki #tallinn #thingstodo #itinerary #budgettravel
