Due to the size of Finland, it may be an idea to focus on one of the four main regions, which are Helsinki area, Lakeland, Archipelago, and Lapland. Whichever area you choose, you will have plenty to do. Here are a few attractions from throughout the country. Finland boasts seven Unesco World Heritage sites including Suomenlinna, the fortress island in Helsinki. The Archipelago National Park near Turku are a number of islands with a mix of Finnish, Swedish, and Russian heritage. Hire a boat or kayak, depending on the season, to explore the coastline. Visit Market Square (also known as Kauppatori) in Helsinki. This popular market in the main square has views over the Baltic Sea. You don't want to miss Finland's Northern Lights, which are seen from different areas in Finland. Lapland is said to be one of the better viewing points. Best viewing months are between September and March. Högberget Cave near Helsinki, known as the ‘Womb of Mother Earth’, surrounded by scenic hiking trails, attracts the more adventurous as the cave opens out of the side of a cliff.

Although New Zealand passport holders do not need a visa to visit Finland within any 90-day period, passports are still required. Passports need to be valid for six months from the date of travel with two blank pages available. You also need to take proof that you have sufficient funds for your stay. Have your travel insurance and travel itinerary and arrangements available too.
