Itinerary

My purpose during this tour is to share my passion for Helsinki, the capital of the happiest country in the world! Apart from sharing many fascinating stories about Helsinki's history, present, and future, I will be happy to answer your questions about the way of Finnish life and cultural habits. I was born and raised in Finland, and I want you to get a real feeling of Helsinki, not just the touristic one.

When do Finns gather at Market Square to swim in the fountain? Why is there a statue of a Russian Czar in the most famous square of Helsinki? Is Finnish really that difficult to learn? How much is the biggest speeding ticket ever given in Finland? What did Napoleon have to do with Finland? Are we Finns really the happiest people in the world? This is a private tour for your group. You can ask all of your questions and the content of the tour is possible to tailor according to your own interests. In the end, you'll receive a recommendation list of restaurants and things to do in Helsinki that includes all my personal favorites.
