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.

During this day tour, you will have the opportunity to pay a visit to Unesco Heritage Site Suomenlinna sea fortress, formed around the harbor of Helsinki. We will start our tour at your cruiser or hotel and drive to the harbour near the Old Market Hall and sail to Suomenlinna main fortress islands. The complete day length is 6 hours.
We will start our day at your hotel or cruise ship port, and depending your hotel location, drive to the Market Square area. From there we sail to Suomenlinna fortress with a public commuter (HSL) ferry. In Suomenlinna, we walk around the fortress to search for the history of the site, who has built it and why, wars that have been fought here and the current situation as a Unesco World Heritage site. Your tour leader (me) is specialized on guiding in Helsinki and Suomenlinna fortress, and will lead you through the historical events. We may also visit the Suomenlinna Museum if you wish. After the tour, we sail back to Market Square from Kuninkaanportti (the King's Gate) and get back to your hotel or cruise port.
