5.00Darius is very friendly and knowledgeable. He told us lots about Finnish history and culture - most of which cannot be found online / from books, but only through a local person who knows the region very well and has close ties with the local community. We enjoyed the trip a lot and cannot recommend it enough.

5.00I arrived earlier than my other organized tour, so that I can spend more time in Helsinki and around. I reserved this half-day tour on Viator way in advance. Darius picked me up at hotel on time and I was lucky, I was the only client! Loved the tour of little Porvoo, it is great to go with guide rather than alone, otherwise you won’t know some of the interesting details and stories.

5.00Darius took us on a wonderful trip to Porvoo. We were picked up promptly at the appointed time at our hotel. The ride from Helsinki took approximately 40 minutes. Darius kept us occupied with historical, cultural and geographic information. The walk thru Porvoo was most enjoyable and informative. We also got in a bit of shopping and a snack at some of the lovely shops. As with other outings we’ve had in Findland…wear comfortable shoes and dress warmly.
Great trip
