Hello! My name is Timo. I am a Nature and Wilderness guide and an authorized Helsinki guide. I live in the Helsinki metropolitan area, and I would love to be your personal guide to Helsinki, including Unesco World Heritage site Suomenlinna sea fortress. I can take you to Nuuksio for a wilderness tour, or to Porvoo. Helsinki has a lot to see, like our monumental center from the autonomy period and Suomenlinna, which is a real must to visit! In Helsinki there are many wonderful sites to visit: The Helsinki Music Center Musiikkitalo, Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Rock Church, Helsinki Art Museum HAM, Art museum Ateneum - and of course, the great Market Square with all the people, tourists and ships of the harbor. I am authorized guide in Helsinki and Suomenlinna fortress, so we can customize a day tour that includes the best places to visit. I can take you to Nuuksio wilderness area to hike and make pancakes on an open fire, get the Real Finnish Sauna Experience, and of course, during winter time, try the icy water dip from the sauna. I have my own personal Air Controlled car Toyota Avensis / 2011, which I can use to take you to a personal visit around Helsinki sites and Nuuksio. There are places for 2 - 3 passengers in my car. If your group size is bigger, let's say 5, I can rent a bigger van with 8 seats. I will drive the car myself. If your team is larger, I can hire a mini-bus of 16 or 30 seats with a professional driver. Also, a 66 seat bus can be arranged. You are heartily welcome to visit Helsinki and to participate in my tours! Welcome to Finland! Professional and authorized travel guide authorized in Helsinki and Hyvinkää areas. Professional Nature and Wilderness guide, Authorized travel guide in Helsinki Suomenlinna, Vallisaari, Kuninkaansaari, Wellness travel specialist and tour leader, Authorized Tour Leader. None

Overview of your Helsinki tour

This tour gives you an experience of how it feels to ride a FatBike in a Finnish forest. We will find plenty of nature sights, old trees, swamps, small ponds and have the opportunity to build an open fire beside a pond called Pikku-Parikas. This route is very easy to drive, so if you have never tried a FatBike this is your chance to do it! We will rent good quality FatBikes at Nuuksio HaltiaWilderness Centre. The cost of the FatBikes is extra price, and depending on the type, either manual or electric boost bikes. Your guide Timo (me) will take care of the transportation from Helsinki to Nuuksio and back. We will use a private van car driven by me, starting from your hotel or a customized point. You will have a personal wilderness guide (me) with you all the time in the forest. Tour is available all-around year. This tour is fully customizable according to your requests; if required, electric fatbikes are also available with additional cost.

Your Helsinki tour itinerary

We start from Helsinki airport or customized site and drive 1 hour with my car to Nuuksio National Forest, a place called Haltia Nature center. We leave our car there and take our rented bicycles starting our drive in the forest, enjoying trees and swamps, heading against our mid-drive break beside the beautiful pond Pikku-Parikas. There you will have the opportunity to build an open fire yourself with the help of your guide and grill sausages provided. Please inform if you are unable to eat pork! The ponds and lakes in the area are clean, so you can try a swim also, so please remember your swimsuits! Our drive continues in the forest according to your timetable. Then it will be the time to return to our car and return back to Helsinki and your hotel.
