Travel, wine and food are in my DNA. I grew up between two cultures, my mother being Finnish and my father Italian, and from a very young age, I travelled a lot. My paternal grandparents were from the Italian Valpolicella wine region, and quality wines and food are close to my heart, so much so that I became a sommelier in 2014. I live in Helsinki, my favorite city in the world, where I have been offering authentic local experiences since I completed the Helsinki guide course in 2013 (Suomenlinna guide 2014 and Porvoo guide 2019). I offer culinary tours, walking tours and bike tours. Additionally to the well-known sights, I make my customers fall in love with Helsinki by letting them in on some of the city's best well-kept secrets and stories. All my tours are suited for tourists and travellers, company recreation days, gatherings, birthdays and Christmas parties. Most of the tours are wheelchair accessible, and private transport can be arranged for the tours. LGBTQ+ friendly! In addition to the tours offered on this platform, I also offer personalised, custom-made tours according to your wishes. Also, any elements offered on the existing tours can be changed or added. So please, don't hesitate to contact me!
