Het beste van Helsinki : Kleine groepswandeling (max 10, 3 uur)
Beschrijving
Onze openbare wandeltour door Helsinki met kleine groepen neemt je mee door de meest iconische bezienswaardigheden en verborgen hoekjes van de stad, waarbij geschiedenis, cultuur en verbluffend Scandinavisch design worden gecombineerd. Ontdek fascinerende verhalen achter de Finse manier van leven, de onafhankelijkheid van het land en de evolutie van Helsinki van een bescheiden stad naar een bruisende hoofdstad aan zee. De must-see hoogtepunten van de tour zijn het grote Senaatsplein, de opvallende witte Helsinki-kathedraal, het bruisende Marktplein en de indrukwekkende Uspenski-kathedraal. Je verkent ook het charmante Esplanade Park, Kamppi Chapel of Silence, en krijgt insider tips over de minder bekende pareltjes van de stad, zoals de geheime binnenplaatsen en eigenzinnige sculpturen die zich in het volle zicht verbergen. Waarmee moet u rekening houden Onze tours werken onder alle weersomstandigheden, dus kleed je dienovereenkomstig. Draag comfortabele schoenen die geschikt zijn om te wandelen, en vergeet niet een regenjas of paraplu voor de zekerheid - het is allemaal onderdeel van de authentieke Helsinki-ervaring!

We had a great tour with Jens. He took the time to give us a short introduction on Finnish history and constantly expanded on it at various stops of our tour. Along the way he also taught us a lot about Finnish culture and Helsinki's surprisingly modern architecture. I found the Finnish library culture especially fascinating and our visit to the Oodi Library is a definite highlight for me. Oodi is not just a traditional library, but also offers other services like computers, 3d-printers, sewing machines, band or meeting rooms to residents. Even without a tour it is definitely worth visiting. (don't take pictures of people) As we had our tour on a sunday, lots of people were visiting the library and we really got the see the living culture of libraries. On Jens' recommendation we also visited the National Library the following day, which is a much more traditional library and definitely worth a short visit for the architecture.
Excellent walking tour- so much information on such a variety of topics. And a great overview of the city and its history. Very impressed with Ellodie…..

Victoria was prompt and kept it moving so we could see a lot of things. She tailored it to my interests and we covered a lot of territory. I never would’ve seen the inside of most of these buildings if it hadn’t been for her knowledge of the city.
