What are people saying about Helsinki

Janet_A, Oct 2026

Best tour in the city!!!

Tatiana, with a master’s degree and years of experience living and learning in Helsinki provided such an interesting and informative city tour of Helsinki. She provided the history, cultural aspects and personal tips that made her tour exceptional. Matt of fact, I had another city tour today that did not come close to offering as much information as she provided in the 2+ hours. This afternoon I went to two places Tatiana had recommended and loved them both. Walking tours are the best and, if you get Tatiana, you will really love the tour! Enjoy!

Helsinki to Tallinn Guided Tour -cruise ticket & pick up included

Laura_M, Oct 2026

Brilliant day trip to Tallinn

This trip is very well organised. we got picked up from our hotel in a beautiful car, then we were dropped at the ferry terminal. the Ferry itself is like being on a cruise ship. Very smooth sailing and lots of restaurants onboard. When we arrived in Tallinn, our guide was there to pick us up. he drove us to places that we would never have seen if we had just booked the ferry ourselves and walked into the town centre. You get 2 hours free time to explore the centre and get something to eat. we were dropped back at the ferry terminal, boarded the ferry, had another smooth crossing and we were picked up at the other end to be dropped off at our hotel. 100% recommend this tour.

Great Introduction to Helsinki

Perfect introduction to Helsinki. Elodie was an excellent guide. She shared history of Finland and Helsinki and also what modern day life is like.

Helsinki & Suomenlinna: City Highlights Tour with Ferry Ride

Holli_R, Sept 2026

Best way to see Suomenlinna Sea Fortress.

This was a great tour, and our guide, Sergio was wonderful. I appreciated his knowledge of the area and interesting insights. Our driver, Pekka, was also very helpful and fun to talk to. We saw a lot of the key sights in Helsinki, the highlight being the trip to the Suomenlinna Sea Fortress. It was historically interesting and so beautiful. Sergio was able to fill us in with the history of the island made the tour well worth it. I definitely recommend this tour as a way to see Helsinki points of interest and to learn a bit about the city and country of Finland as well.

JillK_D, Sept 2026

Great experience learning...

Great experience learning about Porvoo and Finnish culture. Darius was great and very knowledgeable. Did a walkabout, had a coffee break, time for shopping, and learned a lot. Half day trip, so leaves time for other activity in the afternoon. Convenient pick-up from hotel. Good pre-excursion communication from Darius.

Such a wonderful...

Such a wonderful experience! The entire process was seamless and so well organized. I especially appreciated that the tour operator even arranged an Uber to pick me up and take me to the meeting point—such a thoughtful touch! A big thank you to Lukas for being a fantastic guide and for showing me around Finland and Sumerian. Despite the weather, he kept things fun, engaging, and enjoyable throughout. Highly recommend this tour!

Helsinki Authentic Walking Food Tour with 8 Local Tastings

James_B, Aug 2026

Always a treat for your mind and taste buds.

Always a treat doing the food experiences as I travel to European cities, if they are offered. Not only learning about food, you get other bits thrown in, such as local history, modern lifestyle, city architecture, etc. I get more reinforced information I hear from other tours and travelers in random conversations brought up on food tours. For this one in Helsinki, pepparkoker cookies started off the afternoon followed by grazing on reindeer and moose sausage, local beer sampling, salmon and whitefish, the Finnish classics of longeda and salmon soup and the finale of apple pie with ice cream.

National Park Hike & Finnish Smoke Sauna Experience with Campfire Lunch

Michelle_A, Aug 2026

Great time in the woods, the sauna, and the lake!

Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and the combination of an easy going hike, lunch prepared for us in the woods, and Finnish sauna/lake jumping, made for a great day! I highly recommend this experience if you want a taste of the flora of Finland, and an authentic sauna. The hike is fairly flat for most of it, with a few small inclines and some roots and rocks here and there. They accommodated my dietary request for lunch as well.

Day trip from Helsinki to Tallinn. Ferry included

Valerie_S, Aug 2026

A touch of Estonia.

Guide, Sergei, was excellent. Met us at the exit from the ferry and transported by van to the old city. Wonderful overview, knowledgeable, fun, and left us with reviews of the many choices of restaurants. Pickup van for transport back to ferry right on time. Suggest getting to the ferry earlier than recommended because it is very crowded. A lot to do on the ferry...eat, shop, music, game rooms.

Guided Tallinn Day Tour from Helsinki / Include hotel transfers

William_L, Aug 2026

Overall, the experience...

Overall, the experience is 5 stars. I appreciate the ease of being picked up at the hotel and then being dropped off as well. The tour guide at Tallinn, Roman, was pretty good. It was hard to understand him at times, but he did a good job overall pointing things out to us. It was nice being in a small private group tour. I will say that I was a little surprised that he didn’t meet us after our free time to make sure we got on the right van / mini bus, but the meeting point was easy to find so I guess that’s okay.
