A really interesting tour !

Anastasiia was really kind and she knows a lot. We just arrived in Helsinki today and it was a pleasure to walk with her for more than 2 hours. I deeply recommend the tour.

Very knowledgeable Tour

The Tour was organised in a very good way and the guide was a student in geography and she is good in local places and the history of the Finland and Helsinki. I would suggest this tour to all of the tourists.
