Trip to Fortress Suomenlinna - Our guide Sergio was amazing 🤩 Telling us all about the history and culture. The Germans, Swedish and the war. Telling us history of the fortress, information about the Dry Dock being the oldest, operational dry dock in the world 🌎. Ferry ride was great, hearing the ferry cut the ice as we travelled through the water. Last stop was cafe to taste some sweets and have some blueberry juice. Then we had some time to browse the souvenirs. A wonderful tour ❤️

Great tour! - I did the Helsinki & Suomenlinna City Tour with Sergio as the guide, and I really enjoyed it. He knows the city inside out and you can tell he genuinely cares about its history and culture. That enthusiasm comes through in the way he explains things — it makes you want to learn more. Sergio gave a great mix of historical background and little details about everyday life in Helsinki today. It was very informative and easy to follow. I’d definitely recommend this tour, and Sergio in particular, to anyone who wants a clear and engaging introduction to the city.

The reed - The tour of Helsinki and Suomenlinna was the rod, super cool to catch the top of the city and its history. We saw the cathedral, the flea market and the monument to Sibelius, then we stuck a ferry ride to the fortress of Suomenlinna, where the guide released a lot of interesting facts and good vibes about its military and cultural past. Organized luxury and very cool, I highly recommend it to anyone who comes to Helsinki.
