The Finnish countryside is quite a contrast from what you may be used to in Britain. Lush forests, beautiful lakes, and serene landscapes punctuated by the fascinating medieval Olavinlinna castle; that's Savonlinna for you.
Considering the terrain and road conditions, a mid-sized car or SUV would be ideal for a comfortable ride. Many car rental services offer this car class.
Remember, unlike in the UK, in Finland, you drive on the right-hand side of the road. The general speed limit in urban areas is 50 km/h, 80 km/h in rural areas, and up to 120 km/h on the motorways.
Parking in Savonlinna is usually well regulated. Most hotels provide guest parking, and there are several public parking spots available in town.
Start your journey at the Olavinlinna Castle, the world's northernmost medieval stone fortress. For a taste of local culture, visit the Savonlinna Provincial Museum and the Summer Theatre. Do include Punkaharju, Koli, and Saimaa in your itinerary if you appreciate natural beauty.
Finland's currency is the Euro (€), and credit cards are widely accepted. The climate can be chilly, especially towards the end of the year, so packing warm clothes is advisable.
The Finns value punctuality, both in business and social situations, so that's something to bear in mind while planning your itinerary. The use of formal titles is also frequent.
There you have it, a sneak peek into Savonlinna. Experience more than just beautiful sights; enjoy the affability of its people, the rich history and the adventure of exploring it all in your rental car. Happy travelling!
