• Good value and flexible structure, but activate your WhatsApp for communication with the tour operator

  This is a very good value for a four hour semi-private driver tour, which included drive by around major Helsinki sites, stopping briefly for photos at a few he recommended and others whenever we asked to stop. Porvoo is a charming village and a contrast to the city and there was one hour to explore on our own after being provided a drive around orientation. Finba, our driver and guide, was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Finland and the locations we were visiting. He explained that the vehicle had been rented that morning due to the company’s van requiring service, but it was ample. Important note (particularly for Americans like me who generally don't use it) they rely on WhatsApp so I did not receive the day prior notification of pickup time and although all Viator emails come through to my Inbox, this tour operator’s email went to spam. We have discovered that in Europe WhatsApp is essential and have now turned on notifications from it. It was not a big issue because when I phoned the tour operator he answered immediately and confirmed our pickup time. Overall, this is a very nice relaxed semi-private tour at a reasonable price compared to what you would pay for exclusive and customized private guide services in most places.

  Tour guide wasn’t very knowledgeable and sights we saw were really not worth the visit. Guide driver ran a red light and I had to stop her a second time from running a red light. Tour was a bust.

  The day trip of Helsinki and Porvoo is well worth it. An amazing experience. Finde was our guide and his knowledge of the history of Finland and the numerous landmarks was exceptional. His great sense of humour made the trip even more enjoyable.

  Our tour guide Finba was excellent. He drove us ariubd the sites of Helsinki and gave us important information about its history, he was open to giving us more or less time as needed.

  

  

• Nice outing to Porvoo

  Overall a pleasant outing, nice to be in a private car with just the three of us and the tour guide. Porvoo was great and nice to be able to spend a little time there. Finnbar was great in letting us decide when we wanted to get out and walk around and when we didn't, with an older person in the car. Only a couple of minor issues, the app said the event was 8AM-10PM (but it's only 4-5 hours long), so we prepped for an 8AM departure and went to bed early and didn't see the 10:24PM whatsapp message saying we'd be picked up at 10AM. Then through no fault of his we get a message at 9:55AM saying pick up would be delayed half an hour (turned out due to a flat tire). Finnbar was also great in dropping us off at a different dropoff than our pickup.

• Great tour!

  We spent more time to and from and in Porvoo than we expected. It is a small cute town with not much to do there. I would have preferred learning more about Helsinki and Finland in general. That being said, it was a pleasant 4 hours.
