Welcome to my short bio! Finland is the country that is now my home and inspiration. Over the past decade I have had the privilege of sharing history and culture of this country with hundreds of visitors from all over the world. I moved to Finland in 2010, graduated from Helsinki University, enjoyed a year in Germany and understood that Finland with its granite and infinite sea is the happiest country in the world for a reason. I specialize in Helsinki and Porvoo and it would be my pleasure to show you the most significant and beautiful places of this capital region! As a local I have tips and ideas from grilling to gardens and museums! Write a message and let's make your time in Helsinki memorable and to your taste.

Hi I am a professional Helsinki Tourist Guide qualified to guide throughout the whole of Helsinki including Suomenlinna Fortress Unesco World Heritage site. In a previous life I was a tour guide in Greece, Spain and Italy, so I am more than experienced with both large and small groups. I am especially interested in Scandinavian history, art, architecture, design, Jean Sibelius, cycling, hiking, meeting people and. . . . sauna! My tours can be tailored to suit my customers' needs and interests, e.g. day trips to medieval city of Porvoo, surrounding countryside or the National Park of Nuuksio and heritage sauna tours can also be arranged on request. I am positive and friendly. I enjoy meeting new people and do everything I can to help guests to make the most of their visit in Helsinki. I have been told by guests on my tours that I have a great sense of humor and really know my stuff. I also provide accessible tours for elderly with a wheelchair accessible vans.

Hi, my name is Timo, your local private guide in Helsinki. I am an easy-going and open-minded person. I like to interact with people from across the world and to know about their culture, language, travel interests. I am passionate about nature. In my free time I enjoy outdoor activities of all kinds. In the summer amongst other things, I love to hike, mountain bike and go kayaking. In the winter, I love to snowshoe and watch the northern lights. My professionality is also based on a long career in information technology, serving in an international company as a technical specialist. This has given me the opportunity to travel around Europe, the USA and Asia. As well as being an experienced Nature and Wilderness Guide, I am also a Golden Badge Guide (the ultimate qualification in guiding in Finland). I am also a Licenced City of Helsinki and a Licenced Suomenlinna Unesco World Heritage Guide, the City of Hyvinkää and Tuusula Guide, so wherever we go you'll be in good hands. My aim is to provide you with enthusiastic informative private tours which ensure that your Helsinki and Finland experience will be the best. My bespoke tours include walking tours or biking tours, tours by a private car, a van or a minibus. Within Helsinki we can cover the major sites or explore less well-known districts in the countryside like Nuuksio or Sipoonkorpi Wilderness areas, the picturesque small town of Porvoo, nearby towns like Tuusula and Hyvinkää are a few of the many wonderful places that can be easily reached in a day trip. My tours are very flexible in content and timing and I can adapt easily to your preferences and suggestions. For me, the best reward for guiding guests is the fun I have sharing the beauty of the place. Let me be your local guide and I will share with you not only my knowledge and expertise but my enthusiasm as well.

I’m an authorized Helsinki guide with academic training as a historian. I’ve lived in the city center for over a decade and know both the major landmarks and the hidden corners you won’t find in guidebooks. Whether you want the classics or something more local and off the beaten path, I’ll tailor the tour to your interests. I’d be happy to show you the Helsinki I know and love!

I am a certified Helsinki guide with a traveler’s sense of direction and feel for people. I will gladly guide you in much loved Helsinki, the town that indeed will become your love at first sight. Hear the story behind the architecture and explore the photogenic spots around Helsinki! Food is my other biggest passion which I am sure we’ll be talking about if we have a chance to meet.
Finland Tour Reviews

“Arja and Timu...perfect guides for a perfect tour of Helsinki and Porvoo”
From our first email exchange, I suspected Arja was the perfect guide for my friends and I, 3 retired women. And I was right. That her husband Timu, also a tour guide, joined us was a bonus. Together, they led us through an informative, relaxed, and enjoyable day in Porvoo and Helsinki. Of course, they shared their knowledge of their city and country. But, their warmth and friendliness enhanced our day. I've taken many tours in many places and that means I've spent time with many guides. Arja and Timu top my list of outstanding guides and, are really nice people, too. I cannot recommend Arja and Timu more highly.

“What a fantastic way to spend a long layover in Helsinki.”
Sergio was awesome (and so was the driver). He listened to everything I said prior to the trip, even my concerns about getting our luggage transferred from a domestic flight to an international one - he was ready with a trolley when we arrived. As we were restricted by time, and a few in our party were staying in town, he arranged the day perfectly to fit what we asked for and a few more things as well. We learnt a lot about the history of Finland, tasted many delights (some he even bought in the van himself), and had multiple options so we could adjust the day as we went along. We dropped 2 of our party at their hotel, and he provided them with pointers of other things to do, and how to get around, and had the rest of us back at the airport in plenty of time for our next flight. Can't recommend him enough. He listened to what we wanted, he adjusted the day to suit our requests. It was the best way to handle the layover.

“Lovely and definitely a YES”
Tatiana provided us with a wonderful and memorable tour through Helsinki. We only had about three hours during a layover. She picked us up and we did a tour via auto through the city. We stopped for some short walks and photo ops, and enjoyed a lovely cafe. Her knowledge of the area is remarkable! I highly recommend booking with her!

Dear Leslie, thank you for your kind words! It was a pleasure to spend several hours with your family and showing our beautiful capital. I hope you return to Finland one day to see it in snow :)
