    Good mix of experience being on Saimaa-lake and interesting stories about nature and Finnish culture. We saw thousands of tree trunks, to be transported from north to south on the lake, impressive! Happy to see young ospreys too. Excellent excursion.

  • Exciting and friendly

    This experience was amazing! The guide is very knowledgable and can tell you so much about the region and the seals and even further from that about Finnish culture. Unfortunately we booked a time where the seals weren't very active above the water so we couldn't spot any, but still it felt like we saw them as Arto had many pictures and videos and stories to tell. I would highly recommend, but maybe book another time in early summer/spring or late summer should be best.

  • This experience is not to be missed

    This trip was really enjoyable and engaging. Arto was a great Guide, told us several stories about the lake and Finland in general. And the coffee break with music was the icing on the cake. Experience absolutely recommended

    Amazing tour on a ecofriendly, full electric boat that allowed easy talk with the skipper and passegers and to have a chance to approach the seals without disturbing them. The skipper knows really well the history, tradition, culture and the lake itself and he is really kind. A nice cup of tea or coffee with some good live music is the nicest conclusion of this stunning trip. Highly recommended!

  • Cruise with Coffee and music
