100% recommendation for this tour and the guide. He really knows a lot about Helsinki, the culture, the history and the architecture and can explain very well. He connected well the history with the present day. We did a nice combination of walking around and going into buildings, which is good to warm up in winter. The meeting point inside a caffee is a nice idea.

Excellent tour. For someone who didn't know much about Finland this was extremely informative and full of interesting stories. The guide is very knowledgeable and friendly, always eager to answer question and explain everything. Group was small and the atmosphere was cozy. We've seen some major landmarks of Helsinki and got useful recommendations from the guide on what to do on our own. If your stay in Helsinki is short and you only want to get a single guided tour, this is definitely it!

This may be the best walking tour I have been to, Emet is a experienced and informative guide, he provided more then Historical and geographical information, and also his perspective on city planning. It is the best choice if tourist want to explore and understand of the Finland culture, history and current society.
