Western Finland Tour Guide - Maarit L.

Maarit L.

I have a lot of experience with private groups. I am 5th generation Helsinkian, so my guests will get a true local experience. With my knowledge, each group will get a tailored tour and I promise they will love their stay, because I can provide them everything they wish to see and do. My passion and hobby is Finnish design, art and architecture and working as a guide truly is my calling. ==========More details about myself===== Helsinki is my home town and my local knowledge is excellent, including the metropolitan area. We take in all the main sights and visit all the locations that interest you. Book me when you wish to discuss with your guide and get answers to all your questions. I am a multi-skilled professional in the Travel Industry and can make a visitor feel comfortable and thrilled in Finland. My personality is positive, humorous and energetic. My English speaking customers have complimented me for my language skills. • Guide authorization both in Helsinki and Central Finland. • Much international experience. • Native-level fluency in Finnish and English, also able to speak Swedish. • Born and raised in Helsinki. I know all the hidden gems of Helsinki and those in its locality! In fact, any kind of a private sightseeing or City Tour can be tailored to your liking, including all the main highlights. Usually, we drive around in a nice VIP minivan or we can take a tram and go riding on the public transport which is very good in Helsinki. The Helsinki trams are green in colour and also a sustainable way of travel. We can also take an excursion out of town. There are several places to visit nearby, for instance Hvittraesk, the home of the eccentric architect Eliel Saarinen. Alternatively we could spend the whole day in the medieval town Porvoo, perhaps having lunch at the beautiful Haikko Manor. Walking on the cobbled streets of Old Town Porvoo will take you back in time. The Finnish national composer, Jean Sibelius, lived in Tuusula and his former home, called Ainola, is today a museum. It's only a 30 min drive from the city and open during summer. When you want to see Finnish design and architecture, I am your guide. Jyvaskyla in Central Finland is the capitol of Alvar Aalto’s architecture which I’d love to show you. The drive by car is 4 hours from Helsinki, or 3 hrs 30 min by train.

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.
