Must visit: great tour! - Jeff was an incredible story teller, easy to talk to, and made sure that we got the right exposure and experienced the nature in Helsinki beautifully. He was encouraging, witty and made sure everyone felt comfortable and involved. Thanks very much for a lifetime of memories. I recommend this trip wholeheartedly who loves nature or wants to connect with their inner selves.

Five star Archipelago hike - We joined 5 other guests and our tour guide, Jeff for a wonderful adventure in a beautiful nature preserve outside of Helsinki - the Archipelago Excursion. It was one of our favorite tours during our 9 days in Finland. Our guide Jeff was so knowledgeable, helpful, warm and in addition he prepared a delicious lunch! Thank you Taiga Times!

Great excursion - I really loved this excursion in the Porkkala peninsula. The scenery is breathtaking and Jeff had prepared for us a wonderful, very tasty outdoor lunch. Jeff is extremly friendly and seems to be always good humoured. He knows thoroughly the area's botany and fauna. I just couldn't remember all the berries' names (I'd fail the test ☹). I highly recommend. Not to be missed.

Be one with nature! - Alex was a great host - very knowledgeable about the flora/fauna of coastal Finland. It was fun to get out of the city into nature. The hike is mostly flat terrain and very easy. The lunch was expertly prepared! We loved our half day, archipelago tour!

It was a great experience - I really enjoyed this activity. Our guide was very knowledgeable, patient and thorough. We learned a lot about the area and some of the history. He provided us with information on the flora as well as the fauna and we got try some of the wild berries. We were also fortunate to observe a deer family in the wild.
