Tour description

Design, Architecture, arts, lifestyle and local legends.
Helsinki is divided into the historical and modern center. In the historical center we conduct the Dynamic Helsinki Free tour focusing on the history of Helsinki and Finland. This Modern Helsinki Walking Tour shows you the rest. The modern Helsinki Walking tour focuses on present and future of the development of our Northern smart city and every day of its people. Many less know sites are visited and you will gain impressive insight of Helsinki as a living city rather than a museum.

Highlights of the tour:

  • Old Market Square, the Helsinki coastline and Archipelago, Vallisaari Biennial.
  • Kasarmitori - Ministry of Defence - Nato and Finnish military traditions.
  • Design Museum - Classics of the Finnish design
  • Iso-Roobertinkatu - The oasis of night life in Helsinki
  • The Plague Park - Beautiful and popular park with grim past
  • The place to go for naked swimming
  • Awards winner architectural masterpieces: Chapel of Silence, Amos Rex, Oodi
  • The parliament - Let's see what is the protest about today?


The tour ends to impressive, new central library of Helsinki called Oodi. It is a flagship of Finland's esteemed library system and a good place to chill for a moment before continuing your adventures to close by Rock Church or elsewhere.
