5.00A fantastic day, all super organized and punctual. The ruins of the castle are extremely impressive and inside you can literally breathe the atmosphere of time. Ekenäs is also a beautiful town that deserves to be visited, the local pizza tasting experience was a very pleasant surprise that I recommend not to miss (and I say this as an Italian!). Jeff, our guide, was very helpful before we even met at the meeting point and made the day memorable with his expertise, sympathy and simplicity. Thanks to Taiga Times for the wonderful experience!
Great adventure

5.00I did this tour on 25th June. It was really an amazing tour! First we visited Raaseporin linna, the ruins of Raasepori Castle. We got into the castle and got a very good impression of the castle including interesting details. Afterwards we went to Ekenäs, which is a very beautiful old town. We ended the trip in a small pizzeria, which only uses local food. I can highly recommend this tour 👍☺️
A lovely tour of a castle with pizza tasting
