Custom tours of Finland are being offered for next summer for Finnish Americans in the Upper Peninsula.
The tours are led by Anita Smiley of Preston, Connecticut, and include a variety of stops with special opportunities not typically available on commercial tours.
The 2018 tour takes place July 9-23, beginning with a flight out of Newark.
The tour begins in Helsinki and travels through eastern Finland to Rovaniemi, then heads south along the western coast through Swedish-speaking towns, to Tampere, Turku and Hanko before returning to Helsinki.
The travel price includes airfare, lodging, private coach and a tour guide in Finland, as well as two meals per day and numerous attractions along the tour route.
This tour can accommodate only 36 passengers, and as of December 11 only about 12 places remain available. To reserve your seat on this one-of-a-kind Finland experience, call Anita Smiley at (860) 889-7820, or email smileys.place@juno.com.
