Domestic leisure tourism significantly contributes to the Finnish economy, accounting for 63.8% of the total tourism demand in 2022. In contrast, inbound tourism represents only 22.9% of the country’s tourism revenue. Although the overall tourism revenue has not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels, it has grown to 91.1% of the 2019 figures. The Rudolf statistical database, implemented in cooperation with Visit Finland, offers comprehensive data that is readily accessible to the public. This database allows users to select specific indicators for their analysis, making it an invaluable tool for those who wish to delve into the critical statistics of Finland’s tourism sector.
