Excellent introduction , at a price - Driver and guide were excellent, very knowledgeable. However it’s very expensive so would be cautious recommending it

Wonderful time in Finland - Antti, the guide and Matti the driver were a great team. Antti (Andy) Was exceptionally knowledgeable, interesting and enthusiastic about Finland. He even quizzed us several times about the area. While Mattie was driving, Antti explained virtually everything that we passed. We really loved Porvoo. We even had a little dessert break in an adorably cute, pastry shop.This tour can be tailored to whatever you want to see. I recommend contacting them through the Viator app to see if they're available at the time that your ship comes in. I also recommend you get the address of the port that your ship will be at to make sure that you are met at the accurate location. I did all that before meeting up with them. They were waiting for us, on time, in a beautiful land rover for us with water and snacks. It was a very comfortable ride. Mattie is an excellent driver. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see the best of Finland.

Our guide, Cornelia, was... - Our guide, Cornelia, was communicative and friendly. She knew the history like the back of her hand and gave me some time to translate my family's mother language for my parents. She also gracefully answered my parents' curiosity about Finnish culture along the way. I highly recommend it!

Great for seeing the key attractions in Helsinki - We had 36 hours in Helsinki and this tour helped us see some key attractions. We also enjoyed visiting Porvoo. Our guide was especially knowledgeable and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour!

Totally recommend - We had booked the experience very last minute, so I was a bit worried that maybe our booking would get missed and no one would show up to take us to the tour. Turns out, I had nothing to worry about. On the day of the booking, we were supposed to meet our tour guide at 10 am, and I was ready and sitting in the lobby of the hotel at 9 am itself. I had noticed a car parked outside but I wasn’t sure if it was the same car. At 2 minutes to 10, Ante (Andrew) walked out of the car and greeted us. Andrew was wonderful…he gave us a wonderful quick course of the culture and history of Helsinki…he taught us about the Finnish culture of saunas, took us to cathedrals and libraries, and he even gave us the option to drop us to a place other than our pickup point so we could explore more after the trip. He customised the tour and his anecdotes basis what we would like and we really appreciated that. I would totally recommend this tour for anyone who has a short stay at Helsinki…it gives you the highlights but still doesn’t feel rushed.

Helsinki City tour - Cornelia was our guide and she was amazing. Her depth of knowledge was incredible. She was so engaging and the entire tour was fantastic! If you can book with her you will not be disappointed!!!

See Helsinki With Viator - Cornelia was excellent. Had so much knowledge of the people, culture, history and issues of the day. She was professional, friendly and delightful!

An amazing day! - From start to finish, our tour of Helsinki with Andrew (our awesome driver) and his co-worker Andrew (our awesome guide) was wonderful. Although it was a snowy day, we were safely driven to all of the locations listed in the itinerary, and were able to walk through the snow to experience life in the beautiful medieval town of Porvoo, enjoy coffee and delicious pastries in a lovely cafe there, see Helsinki’s absolutely stunning Central Library Oodi, walk through the historic Old Market Hall, and visit many other historically rich sites throughout the city of Helsinki. Our guide’s knowledge and interest in everything related to the history of Helsinki was amazing, and both he and our driver could not have been more pleasant and accommodating throughout the tour.

Good experience but ended weird - The hard part for Antti is that I had two excellent tours prior so I am comparing. On its own and even though it was very cold outside, it was that time of the year, I enjoyed and learned a lot about both cities. I liked the things I saw but was a bit surprised in the end when instead of taking me back to my hotel, Antti put me on a train. He took me to my seat, then leaving me to get back to my hotel after a 20-minute train ride back to the airport (my hotel was at the airport). It was a weird ending to a rather pleasant experience.

Well worth it - Cornelia the guide was excellent / very knowledgeable. Porvoo was a great contrast to downtown Helsinki. Library was amazing. Andrew the driver was quietly attentive.
