An excellent tour, even in winter. The lunch in the old market area on the water was great. The guide provided a superior commentary.
-
Overall its a good tour. We had a great friendly and knowledgeable guide Ray. The Oodi Central Library is an interesting place. Suomenlinna is a beautiful island. Wish it is a full day tour so we don’t have to rush going at slower pace to enjoy these places.
-
Our tour of Helsinki and Suomenlinna with Asthaloy was informative, interesting and fun. Asthaloy took us to many interesting locations throughout Helsinki while giving us all the historical facts of each place. We enjoyed our time with him in Helsinki and Suomenlinna.
-
Our guide, Asthaloy, provided a most informative and enjoyable 5-hour tour of the Rock Church, the Sibelius Monument and the Suomenlinna Island. Asthaloy is a native of Finland so is very knowledgeable about the country but lived in the USA for a number of years so speaks English very well. He was prompt, polite and helpful. The three sights we visited were well worth seeing and we felt like the amount of time at each stop was adequate. I think we tour a bit slower than some (we’re in our 70s) but Asthaloy adjusted the timing to suit us. Highly recommend the tour and the guide.
-
Excellent experience. Guide knowledgeable, friendly and flexible for our needs. Van was safe and clean but noise of air conditioning blocked out some of the conversation when she was not using the microphone. Time in the market was good and offerings there of good quality.
-
Sharma gave us a great 6-hour (!) tour of Helsinki and Suomenlinna. She is very motivated, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. You get the feeling that she's a friend of already many years. We literally saw all Helsinki's highlights.
-
Minnie, our guide, was well informed. The tour was comprehensive which was very helpful as we had limited time in Helsinki
-
When looking for tours in Helsinki, there were lots to choose from, so I took a stab at it. This was an excellent choice, as the guide was super-friendly, her information was comprehensive, and we covered some really great parts of Helsinki. If they take you to a little place that smells like cinnamon, get the cinnamon roll. It's delicious. Be prepared to get some walking in on this tour, though. Especially since the fortress doesn't really have any vehicles to drive you around.
-
The best from this tour is the guide. Mini is very friendly, even though she is not originally from Finland, her knowledge about the country is beyond. It is really a good one day tour if you guys only stay for a couple nights.
-
the tour covered a lot of locations, and the guide was very informative. but we could hardly have time to take photos or stop to really take a good look bcoz the tour was very rush.
young kids should not join this tour as it was quite a lot of walks, my kids all felt too tired in the island so we gave up to look around at the end.
