I personally don't see any point in going to Helsinki, Tallinn is 90 minutes away with 1/2 the prices, less Westernization, and a more interesting city. Finns are not Scandinavians anyway, for Scandhoes go to Sweden or Norway. It's relatively speaking a good time to go to Sweden and Norway if you are coming with USD/Euros - weak currencies mean prices are slightly less outrageous than usual for foreigners.
