Transport: Within Helsinki there’s a good network of trams. For further travel it’s best to fly domestically with the national carrier Finn Air or by train or bus.
Currency: Euros! We pretty much paid by card the entire time we were there. The only thing that needed cash was bathrooms at rest stops.
Sim card: It’s easiest to get an e-sim for your trip! Yesim has great deals on Finland
Handy apps: GetYourGuide is the default for activities in Lapland, and both Uber and Bolt works in major cities like Helsinki and Rovaniemi, but Bolt is cheaper
*Use LAUGHTRAVELEAT5 for 5% off GetYourGuide
Language: local speaks great English and there’s no language barrier issues at all.
