Get ready to experience the very best of Helsinki on this 4-hour guided tour! Discover the highlights of Finland’s capital, where history, modern art, and stunning architecture come together to shape the Finnish lifestyle. We’ll visit the city’s most important landmarks and dive deep into the fascinating stories that define Helsinki. I will pick you up and we will walk or drive towards the Senate Square, where you’ll feel the historical presence of Russia through the statue of Alexander II, reminding us of Finland's past as part of the Russian Empire. We’ll also see the majestic Helsinki Cathedral, a symbol of Helsinki. At the Market Square, you’ll have a chance to shop for unique local products, from handicrafts to Finnish delicacies. Did you know Finland has the highest coffee consumption per capita in the world? We’ll have a cup of coffee during our tour - or have a taste of something else which is famous in Finland.
We'll start the day by visiting the market place next to the President's palace. After we'll visit the Senate square and the Helsinki Cathedral (if possible). The tour continues to the Rock Church. During the tour, we'll see a lot more than these sights and places to visit can be changed according to your wish. Finland is also famous for its design, so we will also visit for example Marimekko and Iittala shop. - Senate Square - Market Place - Market Hall - University Main building - Helsinki Cathedral - Orthodox Uspenski Cathedral - President palace - Esplanade - Marimekko - Railway Station - Oodi the new library - Parlament - Music Hall - Rock Church
