Ivalo Travel Guide
Finland
Ivalo is a small settlement of 3,998 people in northern Finland, in the Finnish Lapland region. It is well north of the Arctic Circle and serves as a practical base for exploring the surrounding area.
Most travellers arrive by air through Ivalo Airport (IVL), the airport serving the town. Ivalo is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better suited to northern landscapes and seasonal outdoor activities than to a beach holiday.

Tipping: Tipping is not as common in Finland as it is in some other countries. Service charges are usually included in the bill, so tipping is not expected but is always appreciated for exceptional service.
