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.

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.

My name is Sergio, and history has always been my greatest passion. Originally from abroad, I moved to Finland in 2008 to pursue my degree in engineering. What began as a study adventure soon became a life-changing commitment—I chose to stay and build my life in this tough yet inspiring country, surrounded by stories of Vikings, merchants, kings, and nations in transformation. Over the years, I’ve combined my research in Finnish history with a natural love of storytelling, creating tours that are both informative and engaging. Whether you’re visiting Finland for a day or exploring for longer, my goal is to make the country’s past come alive for you in memorable, authentic experiences. Join me, and let’s walk through history together—where every street has a story, and every landmark reveals a piece of Finland’s heritage.

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!

Helsinki and Porvoo: Historical Combo of Finland
This is my favourite tour, as it allows walking through 2 cities in 1 day. In Helsinki we see the 19th century capital with wide streets, classical architecture and also modern vibe. Porvoo, in contrast, is old, wooden, cozy, empty, cobblestone and silent. Let yourself feel the difference, have the blend of old new, big and small, noisy and silent. Experience the richness of Finnish culture!

“A very relaxing time”
Our trip with Timo was a very enjoyable. It was so easy with hotel pickup and airport drop off. The trip was like talking with a friend vs listening to a tour guide's chatter. It was relaxing strolling through the old town of Porvoo and stopping by a little coffee shop for a warm drink and pastry.

“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.
Arja N.
Thank you, Roberta for your kind feedback. For me to hear that you and your companions enjoyed the program and your time with us is very heartwarming. Guiding is my dream job and I always aim to deliver a wonderful experience every time and with every guest. Happy that we succeeded also with your group! I wish you and your friends all the best. Kind regards, Arja and Timo
