My tour will take you to the most interesting attractions in Helsinki and we will explore areas outside of the center and have some Finnish tastings. Helsinki offers a lot of nature and we will visit local areas along the beautiful seaside. You will hear about Finnish traditions, culture, and history, and of course about our daily lives.
* If you are more than 3 people, please inquire for a customized tour and I will book a minivan with me driving it.

Laila loves her country and she shares her love and passion not only through her beautiful smile but also with her wide knowledge. Thanks to her itinerary we saw Helsinki with different eyes, walked through areas we would not have thought about looking at. we were 8 people from 25 to 60 and all had a lot of fun. Thank you very much Laila for your enthusiasm and joy.
