We recommend renting a car in the Finnish Lapland to enjoy the flexibility of adventuring into little-known places. With a personal vehicle, you can stay as long as you wish in a cool destination. Driving in a remote village like Ivalo necessitates a sturdy car model. With a good SUV, you can visit places with reindeer sleigh rides, cross-country, and downhill skis. You can also use a rental car to visit the campsites at Ukonjarvi to witness the Nothern Lights. The price of Lapland car rentals depends on the vehicle class you choose. Many models are fuel-efficient and have heated seats. Before booking, consider the number of passengers and the size of your luggage.

Most places are remote, and distances are long. You're more likely to come across tractors in the countryside. You don't need to worry about traffic jams, but there will be lots of roundabouts to navigate. Beware of traffic signposts without text except for the stop sign. So, it's good to familiarize yourself with Finnish road signs and rules before you drive off with a rental car. Keep right and maintain 80 km/h (50 mph) in the cities or 50 km/h (30 mph) in residential areas. In most towns, you have to pay for parking with coins, a mobile app, or a credit card through a ticket machine. Use a parking disc that shows the amount of time allowed to park there. You'll be penalized for exceeding the time.

The minimum driving age in Lapland is 18, but you must be 21 years old to get a car rental. Drivers who are 16 years old can only drive microcars at 45 km/h (27 mph). Carry your documents throughout the trip, i.e., ID, driver's license, passport, and proof of insurance. You can use a driving license from any EEA or EU country. Although the International Driving Permit is recognized, it is not required.
