The guide gave me lots of information about the history and noteworthy places to visit in Turku. She was very e enthusiastic and I could see that she loved her work. However, she might want to speak more slowly, as it was sometimes difficult to follow her.
Thanks for your feedback, we really appreciate it. We will also convey your message to the guide herself. Hope you have fond memories of Turku.
