What to do while in Helsinki
Since Helsinki is located along the water, there are numerous opportunities for boat trips, kayaking and more. Must-visits in the city include the Helsinki Cathedral, and the design district for the best of Scandinavian design, including the Kamppi Chapel of Silence and Lonna Island. A weekend drive to Nuuksio National Park is a must, and so is a visit to the 18th-Century Seurasaari’s Open-Air Museum.
Summer in Helsinki
Nothing beats the comfortably warm weather and sunny skies of summer in Helsinki to go swimming or watch street performances at Esplanade Park. And when you are not spending laid-back afternoons at the Loyly, you can drive your Helsinki car rental to the Korkeasaari zoo, or Linnanmäki amusement park.

Return to Airport was a big hassle. SIXT destination in GPS took me to a dumpster in restricted area. “Rental return” was not properly marked and return to SIXT was thru a small opening at the end of a gas station lot. As long as construction is going on, inform clients at the time of rental how to return car and provide a map or drawing. Otherwise, great service ..!
