Great tour by a great guy - My husband and I came to Helsinki for a week and after doing a tour at the later end of a trip to Prague & wishing it was earlier since it gave us great ideas of where to go, I scheduled this tour for day 2. Our tour guide Cesar was great! He arrived right on time & lucky us, we were the only ones that day. He took us around to so many beautiful sights in Helsinki, ending in one of the coolest places ever! Even though he wasn't a native to Finland, Cesar's knowledge was out of this world! We learned so many little details about the history of Finland, Helsinki, and neighboring areas, saw the sights, and it was like a friend was taking us around with how warm & friendly he was. I can't recommend this tour (and Cesar in particular as your tour guide!) enough.

Tour of Helsinki - We had a wonderful tour guide, Georg. He was a walking encyclopedia about Finland. We learned so much. If you want to learn the history and cultural significance of the various point of interest, Georg is the right person for it.

Great tour with history of Helsinki - If I could give this tour 6 stars out of 5, I would. I contacted Ulla who set up my wife and I for the Helsinki Tour. This was set up on the morning of the tour, they accomodated us the day of. We could not believe the luck involved. Next, our tour guide arrived at our hotel and then we walked to several sights and took the trolley to many spots. Each place had meaning, our tour guide Cesar was EXCELLENT. We learned so much about the history of Helsinki and the great spots to go to that were easy accesible by foot or by trolley. Cesar really knows his stuff and will keep your attetion the whole time. You can tell that he truly loves what he does. Thanks for the great experience, we would definitely recommend to anyone going to Helsinki!

Some major sites, slow pace - Thankful that the miscommunication about meeting point was dealt with quickly (what’s app is a must) but disappointed in the pace of the tour (several kept wandering off) and the number of sites we saw in 3 hours. I would choose another tour if I came back another time.

Not much shown. - I thought this was a very average tour. It was well run and the guy was nice. But it seemed like he couldn’t fill 4 hours. We spent almost an hour in the library. Which is a pretty standard library. And he explained an ATM which I think everyone knows. It was just kinda nothing. Although like I said, the organization was great.
