In-Depth Information
Food
See the
Food & Drink
section for information on Finland's eating scene.
Eating choices are flagged with price indicators, based on the cost of an average main
course from the dinner menu.
Gay & Lesbian Travellers
Finland's cities are open, tolerant places and Helsinki, though no Copenhagen or Stock-
holm, has a small but welcoming gay scene.
Health
Travel in Finland presents very few health problems. The standard of care is extremely high
and English is widely spoken by doctors and medical clinic staff. Tap water is safe to drink,
the level of hygiene is high and there are no endemic diseases.
