      Story

      How a passion for travel became Matkustelu

      Matkustelu.fi was born from a desire to share genuine travel experiences and practical tips with Finnish travellers. Over the years we've taken more than 200 flights, explored over 40 countries and gathered experiences from both budget trips and more luxurious holidays.

      We believe that everyone deserves unforgettable experiences — regardless of budget. We want to inspire you to try something new, find hidden gems beyond the usual tourist spots and travel more boldly.

      Our goal is to help you find destinations that suit you, save on travel costs and enjoy every trip to the fullest. Our guides are based either on first-hand travel experience or carefully researched information, and we clearly indicate which applies to each article.
