Say goodbye to stuffy, generic tourist-centric tours and become part of this walking journey to experience Helsinki in an educational and enjoyable manner. I, Jonna, a native of Helsinki and the creator of Rento Helsinki Tours, lead all the tours.

You will have the opportunity to see Helsinki’s attractions at a leisurely pace and gain knowledge on the nation’s history, culture, and society. Feel free to ask any questions you have in mind, and due to the group size being capped at 8, you will have ample opportunity for interaction with me, your guide. You’ll get to hear stories that only a person who has been born and brought up in Finland would know. By the end of the tour, you’ll understand why there’s a statue of a Russian Czar in Helsinki’s best-known square? Why is Finland often ranked as the happiest country on the planet? When do Finnish people gather in the market square to bathe in the fountain? What is the definition of the ‘unicorn block’? Is Finnish really that hard to learn?

Partake in this tour for a genuine experience of Helsinki, as opposed to a mere touristy one!
