City Breaks to Helsinki

This natural phenomenon is just one of many reasons why Helsinki is an ideal city break destination, with so much to see and do. It’s located on the shore of the Gulf of Finland, an arm of the Baltic Sea. The Finish capital is spread across a number of bays and peninsulas and over a number of islands. It’s an interesting city to visit and we can offer cheap city breaks, flights and holidays to Helsinki from Ireland all-year round.
