Introduction
This page includes guided day trip providers, online travel agencies and full-service travel agencies.
Full-service agencies offer holidays and package tours to popular destinations; these agencies generally provide transportation, tour guides and additional services at the destination to assist their clients. Many are also able to arrange fully customised travel itineraries worldwide for their clients.
Online travel agencies do not provide the same level of service. They are essentially online shops where the user can search for and purchase cheap flights, package tours, or accommodation from a number of airlines and/or operators, and look after themselves from then on.
Top Tip: Many companies on this page promote Last Minute Deals - Äkkilähdöt / Tarjoukset or similar at their sites. You can also register to receive notification of special offers by e-mail - even before they go online! In either case, the deals can be very good value. You will probably have to be prepared to leave within 1-3 weeks, but an offer like €400 for flights and a week in a three or four-star hotel, including breakfast, next to the beach in a southern European resort would not be unusual. Great value if you have the time!
Not many sites have full English versions. Online bookings generally don't work at Google Translate, but most function well including booking forms using 'Translate to English' in Google Chrome. If you don't have Chrome, open the Finnish-language site in Finnish in one window, and open it in Google Translate in a separate tab/window. Use the translation as a reference, but make your searches and bookings in the original Finnish site.
