We did the walking tour of Helsinki with Osmo. The weather was great and Osmo was a great guide showing us the area and explaining the history of Helsinki. He was friendly and able to clarify the group's questions, showed us pictures to explain the places and stories we were seeing and gave us good recommendations. I def recommend his tour! Kiitos, Osmo!

Osmo was a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The tour was informative and fun, we loved the fun facts about Finnish people and the jokes! His recommendations are also good about things to do in Helsinki or where to eat.

I loved this tour! Osmo is a Finnish guide who tell us a lot about the Finnish history without being boring. We laughed and smiled in the tour and 2 hours flew by . It was the best tour that I’ve joined so far this year in 4 countries.
