A great experience! - Bruno was our guide for the Poorvo and Helsinki tour, we were only there for a day, but he made sure we saw it all explaining everything and also making sure we were always happy with the flow of the tour. Overall, I would strongly recomend this tour, especialy if you are only staying a few days in the city.

Experience itself was a... - Experience itself was a 4/5, but the guide Bruno was patient, sweet and friendly and hence a 5/5 for the overall experience. We started off with Porvo at about 1pm and the place was windy and colder than usual we were told. One of the fellow tourists slipped and fell as the cobblestone roads can be slippery as well. Besides that it's a quaint little town with old red houses and rich history. By the time we reached Helsinki the sun was down and the many attractions like the cathedral were closed and we could the rest see only in the dark. Managed to get 20 mins in the Christmas market before it closed. I recommend others to start early around 9 and finish by 2pm so u get to see the places properly. Overall a good experience.

Big Day Out - Bruno was friendly, personable and had plenty to share about Helsinki and Porvoo. We had a full day of sightseeing, including a trip to Suomenlinna in the afternoon (which I requested during the tour to Porvoo and Bruno was more than happy to accommodate that into the day). Bruno shared many facts and information about Finland, of which I would not have known otherwise. As a solo traveller, it was a great way to spend a day in Helsinki. Thank you.

Good affordable private tour of Porvoo and Helsinki - A perfect way to see Helsinki and Porvoo in one day. He took us to Porvoo first and walked through the old town along the river to the cathedral. Beautiful town with cobblestone streets and autumn foliage. Affordable Then, back to Helsinki and city tour by car, visiting many if not all sites and buildings throughout the city.

Great guide - Finbar was the greatest tour guide! Very knowledgable. We loved that he was accommodating and allowed us to have control over how long we stayed at each stop, if we even wanted to stop there, and he made sure we saw all of Helsinki and Porvoo in our one day there! If you have 1 day in Helsinki this will cover everything.

Thank You, Finbaar! - Finbaar made our tour very special. We loved Porvoo and our walk around the medieval streets and enjoyed the sites in Helsinki. Finbaar very kindly arranged a taxi to take us back to the airport later that day. We certainly would recommend a tour with Finbaar!

Nice Private Tour - Fimba was our driver and guide for the day. He was very professional, he starting telling us the history of Porvoo shortly after we got on the car on the way to Porvoo, thumbs up! We like private tour with just our own group (we have 6 pax) as it gives us flexibility to tour around at our own pace.
