Be prepared for the cold...

4.00Be prepared for the cold wind especially if sitting outside. You also might want to see about getting the headset, as it was very difficult to hear what was being explained.
It does what it says on the tin!

4.00Despite the biting, cold wind, the trip around the archipelago of Helsinki was worthwhile. The recorded commentary cut out now and again - Norman Collier-esq- but overall, I enjoyed it. I went at 11:00am on Sunday 26th April, and found the staff pleasant: especially the blonde haired lady who met, greeted and served us throughout the trip (she may have not been working there too long but was really great). Actually, she was lovely and I’ve added an extra ratings star because of her warmth and affability 🌟
Fantastic

5.00It was great experience! The fee was really normal. One hour of beautuful visit the capital of Finland by the sea - length enough. Very nice excursion. Great history to be heard.
Great Cruise
