Step into the living history of Finland with an exclusive private journey to Turku, the nation’s medieval capital and oldest city. Beyond the modern rush of Helsinki lies a realm of cobblestone squares and towering legends waiting to be rediscovered. Your expedition begins at the monumental Turku Cathedral, the mother of all Finnish churches, before winding through the atmospheric Old Great Square. Experience the city’s pulse along the Aura River, where historic riverboats dock against a backdrop of 19th-century architecture and the avant-garde lines of the modern library. We’ll delve into the local soul at the vintage Market Hall and trace the water’s edge to the formidable stone walls of the majestic Turku Castle. This isn't a rigid itinerary; it’s a seamless, curated immersion into the true Finnish spirit, navigated in the quiet luxury of a private vehicle with a personal guide who brings the North’s oldest stories to life at your own pace.

Turku Cathedral
Turku Cathedral, situated on the hillock of Unikankare, is Finland’s National Sanctuary. Dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Finland’s first bishop, St Henry, the church was consecrated in 1300. The Turku Cathedral is considered to be Finland’s most valuable historical monument.
Turku Castle
Turku Castle is already over 700 years old and one of Turku's premier attractions, located at the mouth of Aura River. In many exhibitions, style interiors and special occasions, the castle's eventful history and times are presented. A defensive bastion, a majestic court, a prison, an administrative center, a storehouse – the role of the castle has varied throughout the ages, but it is certain that many dramatic events have taken place here.

Very disappointed as I expected to see the castle depicted in the review title. This picture IS NOT Turku but Olavinlinna castle at Savonlinna....The advertisement is false and misleading and I wonder how many of the publications from the sponsor are authentic.
