About Renting a Car at Mikkeli Center

Mikkeli in the heart of Finnish Savolax is a perfect starting point for exploring Finland's lake country by car. From here, you can reach Saimaa, one of Europe's largest lake systems, in just a few minutes' drive, and along Route 13 heading south, a landscape of glittering lakes and dense coniferous forest opens up. To Lappeenranta on the coast of Finnish Karelia, you drive just over an hour south, while Heinola is reached in about 45 minutes west via Route 5.

Linnansaari National Park, known for its ringed seals and wild archipelago islands, is within convenient reach to the east. During summer, the region offers endless opportunities for nature experiences, and autumn's color display along forest roads and lakeshores make the Mikkeli area one of Finland's most picturesque destinations.

We compare prices from all major providers at Mikkeli Center so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
