Experience the Thrill of Finland Adventure Tours

Picture yourself mushing your own dogsled through silent, snow-draped forests, the air crisp and the scenery otherworldly. Finland adventure tours introduce you to such exhilarating experiences. If you're visiting in winter, the northern regions offer incredible snow-based activities. From snowshoeing in the magical Lapland to cross-country skiing in endless white terrains, it's a winter wonderland that calls out to all adventurers.

The Midnight Sun and Beyond

Summertime unveils a different mystical aspect of Finland—the Midnight Sun. Imagine the sun lingering on the horizon, bathing everything in a gentle golden glow. It’s the perfect backdrop for kayaking on serene lakes, hiking through national parks, or simply enjoying the blissful tranquillity Finland boasts. Finland adventure travel ensures you experience nature’s grandeur, with 40 national parks teeming with flora and fauna.

Unique Cultural Encounters in Finnish Lapland

In the heart of Lapland, cultural richness emerges from its indigenous Sámi people. Engage with their vibrant traditions, from reindeer herding to crafting intricate handicrafts. Participating in these activities provides a deeper understanding of Finland's indigenous cultures, making your trips to Finland even more meaningful. You might even find yourself part of a reindeer sledding team, gliding seamlessly over snow under the guidance of an experienced Sámi herder.

Savour the Flavours of Finnish Cuisine

Food is an essential chapter in any adventure, and Finland’s culinary offerings are a delightful narrative of its landscape and history. Satiate your palate with unique offerings such as smoked arctic char or reindeer stew. For a truly local experience, sample kalakukko, a traditional fish pie, or savour some creamy lohikeitto, Finland’s famous salmon soup. Adventure tours often feature opportunities to enjoy local cuisine, adding a flavoursome twist to your explorations.

Enchanting Experiences Under the Northern Lights

One of the most awe-inspiring experiences in Finland is witnessing the Aurora Borealis. Imagine the sky painting itself in hues of green, purple, and pink. This natural phenomenon is best viewed in the north, and many Finland adventure travel packages offer tailored excursions for this purpose. Whether you’re viewing them from a glass igloo or a cozy wilderness cabin, the northern lights are sure to leave you speechless.

Practical Tips for Your Finnish Adventure

  • Timing Your Visit: While Finland is spectacular year-round, your activities will depend significantly on the season. For winter sports and northern lights, visit between December and March. The Midnight Sun and hiking are best from June through August.
  • Getting Around: Finland’s robust infrastructure ensures ease of travel. Utilize the efficient train network to traverse stunning landscapes or rent a car for more secluded exploration.
  • Embrace the Language: While English is widely spoken, learning a few basic Finnish phrases like "kiitos" (thank you) adds a touch of respect and enriches your interactions.

Finland beckons with its enchanting mix of thrill and tranquillity, ensuring every traveller finds their own adventure among its offerings. Whether it's the spellbinding landscapes, the rich cultural encounters, or the tantalizing tastes, this beautiful country has something special in store for everyone who dares to explore it. Start planning your trips to Finland today to uncover the magic that awaits.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.

What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.

Touching base after our trip. As usual you did a great job helping plan and execute an amazing travel experience!! Everything was fantastic. Especially our hotel location. Since it's connected to the Victoria station it made getting around very easy. Thanks again for your help I'm sure we'll be booking our next trip soon...Leigh Ferris

We recently completed a trip to Crete, Greece - our third trip with GoWay - and I have run out of superlatives to laud their efforts. This was a self drive trip, and as has been our experience with GoWay, we were permitted to customize the standard offered itinerary to suit our personal preferences. Brooke, our agent on this trip, went the extra mile to make all the adjustments we requested, including providing for an English-speaking guide at the Phaistos archeological site. The hotels which Brooke booked on our behalf were truly excellent, and - again, per our wish - just outside of the urban chaos of Heraklion, Rethymno and Chania, but close enough to readily access the cities' benefits. Each hotel was a beachside sanctuary, and we spent several serene, idyllic days never leaving the hotel, and yet there was plenty of time for more distant and adventurous sight seeing. I cannot overstate how happy we have been with our GoWay experiences - most notably in their willingness to listen to our preferences and make those manifest in the itinerary - and this most recent trip just confirms our already positive opinion of GoWay, and we will be certain to consider them again for our next travel adventure.Frank Venuti

Venessa Lloyd at GoWay organized a trip to Africa for us- We just returned last week. It was very well organized and included everything we requested, and more. We did two safaris - one in Tanzania and one in South Africa. They were both excellent, with first class accommodations and guides. We absolutely would recommend GoWay and Vanessa to anyone. Sandra

Overall, the hotel and tours were amazing. We had issues with communicating with the driver. At times I was asked where, I was gone. The local company handled the situation and there were minor issues after. I would recommend a local English-speaking guide every day. My clients loved the trip. The area we stayed in had many restaurants and local markets nearby. I recommend the cooking class, flamenco dance show, wine tasting and taps tour, and the city tour. Jolynn Tizeno

Ani M was absolutely amazing to work with! I actually chose Goway for our group trip because of her recommendations. She was the only agent who took the time to explain that we really needed to split our travels into two separate trips if we wanted to experience everything on our wish list, and I really appreciated her honesty and guidance. Throughout the planning process, Ani was incredibly helpful and answered ALL of my questions, even when I asked the same ones more than once! She was patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. I enjoyed working with her and her team so much that I already have another group trip planned with her, and I expect we'll be planning another one soon! The guides during our Scotland trip were wonderful as well. Ian Short was the BEST! He was professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly so we could simply enjoy the experience. He even worked in sightseeing stops we didn't know we needed to see, and those little extras made the trip even better. The entire experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. I'm already looking forward to our next adventure to Ireland with Goway and working with Ani and their team again!Angela Butler

We recently traveled to Portugal and had the most wonderful experience. As our first venture overseas, we decided to search online for travel assistance. We happened across Goway Travel and are so glad we did! Michael Keon, our Destination Specialist, is extremely proficient and knowledgeable in his profession. "Thorough" is an understatement. He assisted every step of the way from the moment we stepped on our flights, transfer arrangements, hotel accommodations, train travel and multiple tours/outings tailored to our specific needs/wish list. He provided unparalleled guidance and support during the planning process and was always available to discuss any questions/concerns. His communications were always prompt and concise. Without a doubt, our best trip to date...there will be no hesitation to contact Mr. Keon for future travels. Joanna Lynn Mays Michael Andrew Mays Joanna Mays

What made this experience great was Cedric Wai. Had a client going to Asia and this is Cedric's wheelhouse since he is from there. Everything was wonderful. Everything went smoothly. The individual tours were wonderful and all the guides were exceptional. A lot of traveling-the flight was very good on Cathay Pacific would highly recommend their airline seats were comfortable and spaced well. Being on an airplane for 16 hours sucks in general, but other than being a little sore from being stuck in one place all was good. Thank you so much for all your help and the trip was wonderful and everything that it should be! Next trip will be much more relaxing, sitting still for a while on a beach somewhere ha ha!Careen Sullivan
