It’s cost us €13 in a Bolt to get here from the city centre and I’m so glad we decided to visit. The weather was stunning and it was a Sunday so it was very busy with locals and tourists. There’s the cutest bridge which you walk across to the island. Once on the island there’s multiple sites to see and explore. There’s a beach, public swimming baths and a museum. They also have many wooden huts and log cabins which are rich with history and culture and they’re perfect for photo opportunities. If you’re travelling to Helsinki for the first time, I definitely suggest visiting Seusaari Island. Whether you use a bike, scooter or car, it’s well worth the visit. Overall, a stunning island with a perfect blend of nature and history. I’d definitely recommend!
We got to see everything we wanted on this great tour. From the Sibelius monument to the open air museum it was a comfortable and informative experience. Our guide Mridul was very enthused and took us to churches and even her favorite coffee house. We would highly recommend this to anyone.
Dear Global, Thank you so much for leaving us these kind words. We are really happy that you enjoyed the tour with our guide- Midrul and the schedule went smoothly. Your review made our day and hopefully we will be in touch again when you are back to Helsinki. Warm regards, Giao Ngo Marketing Agent
