Anne_T, Oct 2026

Good tour, great driver.

Paulo was on time to pick us up and was a very good driver. He was full of information about life in Finland and where we were going. He also was full of ideas as to what we should do after our tour to fill in the afternoon. We had a very enjoyable day.

Helsinki Private Custom Walking Tour With A Guide

A great tour with a great guide !

Our guide Elena was very good. Very knowledgeable and professional. She was also quite friendly and made this tour one of our favorite. She explained in great details all we needed to know. We learned about the history of the country and about the Finnish culture. She took us to various places favored by Finnish people such as restaurants, coffee places, where they go and buy flavored licorice candy, special buns and the famous Moomin shop. We learned a great deal about Finnish culture. She also sent us all kind of informations for us to enjoy the next day, since she could not cover everything in only two hours. A great tour overall that I highly recommend, and particularly with Elena as a guide. We have went through many tours in the past, and we can tell that a guide can make the experience either very boring or very fascinating. She made it very fascinating.

A wonderful intro to Helsinki with Matteo!

What a fantastic way to get an in-depth introduction to Helsinki and Finnish history and culture! Matteo was a terrific tour guide, sharing his detailed knowledge with us as he navigated the TukTuk around the cobblestone streets and hilly terrain of the city to show us all the most important locations, monuments, churches, and buildings. We could never have seen so much in this amount of time on our own. We took this tour on our first day in Helsinki and it provided a perfect backdrop for our stay in Finland. Highly recommended!

What a perfect way to get an overview of Helsinki and spend time in Porvoo. Paulo was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and most of all personable.

Guided Tallinn Day Tour from Helsinki / Include hotel transfers

Helen_T, Jul 2026

Lovely place

Our driver picked us up from our hotel and dropped us at the ferry terminal. He did not speak to us and was initially abrupt when I asked if he was picking us up for the Tallinn trip. When he dropped us off I had to ask him where to go. This should not put you off as soon as we met our guide Anastasia the trip really started when we got off the 2 hour ferry crossing. Anastasia was knowledgeable and friendly. The places we visited were lovely and interesting to understand the history of Tallinn. Once the tour was over Anastasia made sure we all knew where our driver was picking us up from to get back to the ferry and which terminal we head to make our way to. We had a good length of time to enjoy the streets of Tallinn and explore on our own. We were promptly picked up on time and made on way back the ferry. When we arrived our driver sent a message to let us know he was on his way. He greeted us with a friendly smile. He asked about our experiences in Tallinn and in Finland. He was very pleasant and polite which ended the trip for us incredibly nicely. We would definitely recommend the Tallinn trip.

A Perfect Day Exploring Helsinki’s Architecture, Design, and Culture with Olga

Our tour of Helsinki with Olga was absolutely incredible. From the moment we began, she tailored the day perfectly to fit our large group and our shared interest in Helsinki’s unique architecture and design. Her knowledge was outstanding—not only did she provide fascinating history and details at every stop, but she also brought the city to life with stories and insights we never would have discovered on our own. Olga did an amazing job balancing the needs of a larger group while keeping the experience personal, engaging, and fun. She made sure we saw the most beautiful and interesting parts of the city, with a special focus on the architecture and design that make Helsinki so unique. She also went above and beyond to make sure we experienced the local culture, including making sure we had the chance to try reindeer and local licorice! It was such a thoughtful touch and made the day even more memorable. If you are visiting Helsinki, I cannot recommend Olga highly enough. She made our day truly special and unforgettable.

Fun for all ages and stages!

Vagif was a wonderful guide- picked us up on time, was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. He gave us great insight into Finnish culture along the way sharing notable sites on our ride to the Alpaca farm. Once we were there Vagif accompanied us to get the experience started and even took pictures and videos of us so we could capture our family experience. The interaction with the animals was great, super interactive, just long enough. We could engage with the animals for as long and as much as we wanted. I would highly recommend this experience especially with children, but was fun for all ages! Vagif went above and beyond, giving us restaurant recommendations, and ideas for experiences. Also the door to door pick up and drop off was super helpful.

Above and beyond

Michail met us at our apartment where we are staying in a suburb. We have been here for a few days so we have walked around and seen most of the 'tourist' attractions so it was a bit more of a challenge to show us things we hadn't previously seen, but he managed to very well for 4 hours. His knowledge of Finnish history and life was very extensive and we got a very good overview of the way of the Fins. I would highly recommend this tour and Michail as a guide.
