Frequently asked questions

What are the major attractions in Helsinki?
If your trip to Helsinki is all sorted out but your itinerary is a bit on the empty side, we can give you a helping hand.You'll have to roll out of bed early if you want to see all the notable attractions this place has to offer. Ateneum Art Museum and Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art are no-brainers. Senate Square and Helsinki Cathedral shouldn't be missed either.Stop by Hartwall Arena. It's one sight you'll find on travelers' to-do lists. If you still have room on that travel schedule, Helsinki Ice Hall and Stockmann will keep you amused as well.
What are the best road trip destinations near Helsinki?
With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn't be half as easy to explore all that Kirkkonummi, 17 miles away, has to offer. Kurk Golf, Hvittrask and Hirsala Golf alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Don't skip Porvoo either! Just 30 miles away, Porvoo Cathedral, Kokonniemi and Doll & Toy Museum are non-negotiable stops here.
Where are the best beaches near Helsinki?
Open the car windows and take in the fresh sea air as you venture towards Hietaranta Beach. 4 miles from Helsinki, it's a wonderful place to go for a relaxing day out by the ocean.
Where are the best convention centers near Helsinki?
If you're going to Helsinki for work-related reasons, there's a good chance you'll be visiting some business and convention centers. With your own rental car, you can relax knowing you'll get there on time. Here are some of the most well known:

  • Finlandia Hall (0.6 miles away).
  • Helsinki Exhibition and Convention Centre (2 miles away).
  • WeeGee Exhibition Centre (5 miles away).

What kind of rental car should I get for Helsinki?
There's no easier way to see the sights of Helsinki than from the style and comfort of your own ride. Whether you're hitting the road solo or with the entire family, we've got a fantastic set of wheels for you. If you'd rather something small, why not hop into the driver's seat of a compact car? These little marvels are fun to drive and affordable to run. Cruise around the city's significant landmarks by day, then make a stop at one of its many great restaurants at night. In the mood to pack up the car and take off out of town? An SUV is ideal for long, leisurely drives.
Should I get a luxury rental car in Helsinki?
You'll be glad to hear that there's a great range of both luxury and economy vehicles to rent in Helsinki. What you end up going for will depend on your funds and the activities you've got planned. Specialty vehicles are hard to beat if you're all about comfort and class. If you're splurging, why not pick an elite SUV, or perhaps a fancy mid-size sedan? Otherwise, if you just need a set of wheels to zip around town in as economically as possible, you're better off going with an economy vehicle (or something else that won't break the bank).
What side of the road do they drive on in Helsinki?
You'll need to keep to the right when driving in Helsinki. Also, take a little extra care if it's your first time behind the wheel here. Once you're familiar with the roads, you can relax and enjoy the new scenery!
Is it difficult to park in Helsinki?
You'll find plenty of places to leave your car in Helsinki. Even in the heart of the action, you're likely to score a space just where you need it.
Does Helsinki have peak-hour traffic?

Are there speed limits in Helsinki?
Speed limits vary across Helsinki, but usually range from 50km/h to 120km/h. Most residential roads have a maximum speed of 50km/h unless stated otherwise.
