It’s a good half day trip where you get out and enjoy nature but still have time to do other stuff too! Totally worth it.
Excellent hike through the National Park with beautiful views of the Baltic Sea. Our guide prepared an excellent finish campfire lunch.
It was a great trip. Guide Patricia was very welcoming, great guide showing us all kinda if berries, explaining everything. The group was small which was just perfect. Delicious food Patricia made. So overall a fantastic trip with a great landscape and we saw a couple of deers.
We had a great hike with Patricia. Sie had very much interesting informations about Finnland and the sourrounding area we we were in. Also she cooked a great delicious finnisch meal on the Fire for us, and there were salmiakki and gingerbread too. Espacially the diamond shaped Salmiakki were great. The nature was stunnigly beautiful. We went also on a Tower for Bird watching and we saw many deers. Also small ones very close by. We would book the tour everytime again. Thanks to Patricia!
Great fun, easy hike through stunning scenic forest to the beautiful Baltic coast. Minimal climbing so very accessible for all. Our tour guide Szabi was so friendly & knowledgeable and cooked us a delicious camp fire lunch. Highly recommended trip.
My family and I had such a great time! We are very outdoorsy people, and Szabi and Emma were very knowledgeable about the flora around where we toured. We had fun while also learning a lot, and exploring the rocks at the edge of the sea was our favorite part. The snacks in the middle were awesome, and the tour was the perfect length for us to have fun and not get too tired out. We had a group of six with two guides, and our guides were kind and easy to talk to. Szabi helped my grandma along when we had rough terrain, and Emma was a great conversation partner and was very helpful with navigating and cooking. We had so much fun!!
This was a truly magical experience! Our guide was kind, so nice and knowledgeable! The tour took us through splendidly beautiful landscapes. It wasn’t too difficult to walk by and the surroundings were stunning! The lunch by the campfire was such a treat, with local and tasty food! A truly delightful Finnish experience!
This was hands down, THE BEST TOUR EVER! My mom and I ended up being the only ones on it and Patricia was our guide. She was absolutely the best guide we've ever had! I've been to multiple countries and done numerous tours. She was wonderful in communication, making sure we were going at a good pace and the food was great! Patricia was very knowledgeable and well traveled herself which made for excellent conversation. The scenery was so incredible and it was nice to get out of the city. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone and I would not hesitate to book a different tour if she is our guide!

Beautiful walk of 5.5kms. Very nice guide and gives a lot of explanations along the way. BBQ at noon with local food. Guide always listening.
Thank you very much for your kind review! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the tour. We hope to see you again! Wishing you all the best. -Szabi
