Tour description

Explore Helsinki with a guide passionate about Finnish culture!

I invite you to discover the city on foot while we learn about the local lifestyle, the famous saunas, and why Finland has been named the happiest country in the world.

On this 2-hour, 15-minute tour, you'll learn about the essentials of Helsinki along with unique details that make this city an unforgettable experience.

We begin at Senate Square, the historic heart of the city, in front of the imposing Helsinki Cathedral.

From there, we visited:

  • The University of Helsinki, where we will talk about its world-renowned education system
  • The National Library, a cultural gem with classical architecture
  • The House of Nobility, a reflection of the country's aristocratic legacy
  • Katajanokka Island, with its Art Nouveau style and maritime atmosphere
  • The Uspensky Orthodox Cathedral, with strong Russian influence
  • A viewing platform with sea views next to a traditional sauna
  • The Central Market, ideal for trying local flavors
  • Esplanadi Park and the Espa Stage open-air stage
  • The iconic Fazer coffee shop
  • The Central Train Station
  • And we ended up at the modern Oodi Central Library


Throughout the tour, I'll share interesting anecdotes, historical facts, and local recommendations so you can experience Helsinki like a true Finn.

Don't miss this opportunity to experience Helsinki from an authentic and up-close perspective!
