From the Helsinki city center it's a scenic 15 minutes ferry trip to Suomenlinna sea fortress island. Sea fortress of Suomenlinna (UNESCO World Heritage Site) has a unique atmosphere all year around. The fortress was established in 1747 to reinforce the defences of Sweden against Russia (Finland was part of Sweden). Today, historical Suomenlinna is the home of Finnish Naval Academy and 900 Helsinki residents as well. Based on your preferences and time available, we can also visit other interesting islands in Helsinki archipelago. After the island tour we visit the most interesting highlights in the historical Helsinki city center, e. g. Senate Square, Presidential Palace, Helsinki Cathedral, and Uspenski Cathedral. In the Market Square and Old Market Hall, you experience vibrant market atmosphere and can also buy some seasonal delights. It's also possible to include a visit to the famous Temppeliaukio Rock Church.
Ferries to Helsinki archipelago leave from the South Harbour in the city center. First we spend 1-2 hours at the Sea Fortress of Helsinki Suomenlinna. (Number one historical site of Helsinki with over 1 million annual visitors. ) The ferries return also to the city center where all most interesting city highlights are in the walking distance. I guide you to the Old Market Hall, Market Square, Senate Square, Presidential Palace, Helsinki Cathedral, and Uspenski Cathedral.
