Eksklusiv Grand Tour: Helsingfors og Porvoo gamle bydel*****
Beskrivelse
Forestil dig en dag, hvor tidsplanen opløses og Finland simpelthen udfolder sig foran dig. Vi begynder i Helsinki, springer turistfælderne for at finde byens sande puls - den rolige majestæt af Rock Kirken, den salte brise i South Harbour, og de skjulte arkitektoniske perler, som de fleste mennesker går lige forbi. Det handler ikke om at tjekke kasser; det handler om at føle balancen mellem nordisk design og vild natur, der definerer denne hovedstad. Så forlader vi byen bagud for Porvoos sten. Dette er ikke bare en historie lektion; det er en sensorisk oplevelse. Du vil lugte trærøg og ristet kaffe, mens vi vandrer gennem smalle stier belagt med okkerrøde lagre og middelalderlige huse. Vi kan stoppe for en håndlavet chokolade i en lille butik eller finde et roligt hjørne ved floden for at tale om, hvordan livet her har forblivet så charmerende uændret i århundreder. Ingen manuskripter, ingen folkemængder – bare en sømløs, privat rejse gennem de historier og smage, der gør dette hjørne af verden så magnetisk.

Rejseplan
Katedralen ved Carl Ludvig Engel, der rejser sig på den nordlige side af Senatpladsen, er scenen med nationale og akademiske festlige tjenester og en af de mest populære turistattraktioner. Kirken er en del af Helsinkis Empire æracenter og et vartegn for dem, der ankommer til søs. Det er blevet symbolet på hele Helsinki. Tidligere kaldet St. Nicholas Church og Great Cathedral, blev den nuværende hovedkirke i Helsinki bispedømme afsluttet i 1852. Skulpturer af de tolv apostle beskytter byen mod kirkens tag. Udstillinger på krypten (Kirkkokatu 18), om sommeren også en souvenirbutik Cathedral Shop.
Hvis Esplanade Park kunne tale, ville det have tusind historier at fortælle. Siden begyndelsen af 1800-tallet er par forelsket og adskilt under træerne, der ligger i parken på begge sider. Folk strømmer til parken for at hænge ud, blive set og blot opsuge atmosfæren.
Den verdensberømte komponist Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) monument af Eila Hiltunen ligger i Sibelius-parken. Det blev afsløret 7. september 1967. Sibelius-monumentet, der ligner orgelrør, er lavet af svejset stål med over 600 rør og med komponisten på den ene side. Monumentet er en af Helsinkis mest populære statuer og en af de mest kendte turistattraktioner.
Uspenski-katedralen, der blev afsluttet i 1868 i Katajanokka-distriktet i Helsinki, er den største ortodokse kirke i Vesteuropa. Med sine gyldne cupolas og redbrick-facade er kirken et af de klareste symboler på den russiske indflydelse på den finske historie.
Den gamle bydel i Porvoo er en charmerende og populær destination for dagsture. De snoede gader og mosaiklignende gårdspladser afspejler byens middelalderhistorie. I dag er de smalle brostensbelagte gader foret med charmerende caféer, restauranter, butikker og museer, der ligger i historiske træbygninger i forskellige farver. De røde trælagre langs floden dateres hundreder af år tilbage og er byens vartegn. Byens hjerte er den imponerende katedral på toppen af bakken. Porvoo er hjemsted for 50.000 indbyggere.
Katedralen var stedet for åbningen af den første diæt af Finland den 28. marts 1809, hvor Finland blev erklæret for et autonomt storhertugdømme, med Russlands kejser som storhertug af Finland.

Was picked up from airport and dropped off at my hotel. Everything was seamless cause I had my luggage with me and couldn’t check into hotel till after 3pm. My guide was knowledgeable and showed me all around Porvoo and told me its history. Beautiful old town about 45 minutes from Helsinki. I felt comfortable from the beginning, & loved the tour. We then went yo Helsinki where we saw all the hot spots and Pasquel told me about the history of Finland. Tour with The Guide Father. Great experience and guide.

Perfect day in Helsinki and Porvoo thanks to Sergio. We were met at the port on time and then had the best day in Helsinki. Cruise stops give you the best of, and today was perfect. Porvoo was beautiful and very quaint and lovely. Our driver Michael met us at port on time in super clean Porsche and was the best driver. The day was amazing and will be back for a longer stay thanks to Sergio!!
Thank you very much for your short visit! You welcome back next summer for a longer stay! Best Regards
Excellent tour and tour guide. Helsinki is both small and centrally located, so we were able to see and learn much about the town during our 4 hour tour.
Thank you very much for your review! Welcome back!
Great car and guide. Parvoo is a charming little town but not sure its worth the 45min drive each way. Should have spent more time in Helsinki walking around with the guide.
