Lakeland Tour in Finland | 6 Days Itinerary

When you land at Helsinki-Vantaa airport, grab your rental car. If you have some time, consider taking a drive to Helsinki and checking out the city. We suggest visiting the Suomenlinna Sea Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1991. It was built in 1748 and is just a 15-minute ferry ride from Helsinki’s Market Square.
Afterwards, head to the road to Porvoo, the second oldest town in Finland. Follow The King’s Road, an important travel route dating back to the 1300s. Kings, couriers, bishops, artists, and armies have used it throughout history. The road is dotted with mansions, farms, taverns, alehouses, and inns that have accommodated travellers for centuries.
You can stop by Haikko Manor, once home to the famous painter Albert Edelfelt, and visit the old church of Sipoo, built in the 15th century. Once in Porvoo, explore the Old Town on foot. Wander around the well-preserved wooden houses, visit the mediaeval church, and check out Town Hall Square. End your day by staying overnight at a charming boutique hotel in the heart of Porvoo's picturesque Old Town.
