Helsinki

Helsinki, the Finnish capital by the sea, is an exciting starting point for a convertible tour through the region of Southern Finland. The city combines modern design, cultural diversity, and Scandinavian lifestyle with a picturesque environment that is perfect for exploring on four wheels. Especially in the summer, when the sun shines late into the evening, Helsinki reveals its unique charm – providing an ideal start or end point for anyone looking to discover Finland in a convertible.

Driving a Convertible between Architecture and Archipelago

Helsinki itself is characterized by wide boulevards, clear lines, and an airy city structure – ideal for a relaxed drive with the roof down. Just a tour through the city center, past the imposing cathedral, the modern Oodi library, and along the elegant Esplanadi, conveys a sense of space and Nordic elegance. The city is surrounded by water and islands, and those traveling by convertible can effortlessly switch between an urban backdrop and green nature.

From Helsinki Along the Coast

Anyone embarking on a convertible tour from Helsinki will find numerous rewarding routes along the south Finnish coast. Particularly appealing is the route towards Porvoo – one of the oldest cities in Finland with pretty wooden houses and a maritime atmosphere. The road there runs near the coast and offers continual views of the sea, quiet bays, and dense forests. Further north, places like Loviisa or Kotka beckon, perfect for day trips.

Design, Culinary Delights, and Sea Views

After a day trip, it's worth stopping in Helsinki itself – whether in a design hotel, a traditional café by the harbor, or a restaurant serving Finnish cuisine with a view of the water. The city embodies a modern lifestyle at a relaxed pace, making it particularly attractive as a destination for convertible fans.

Nordic Starting Point for More

Helsinki is more than just a capital – it is a gateway to the north, the archipelago coast, and the vast hinterland. For all those who want to combine their convertible tour through the region with urban flair, cultural highlights, and diverse landscapes, Helsinki is the perfect starting point.
