Lovely lady and excellent tour
"Anna showed us all the best bits of Helsinki and told us so many interesting things about Finland its peoples and history. She was smiley and engaging, kind, thoughtful and responsive and also gave us great recommendations for things to do in our own time. You could not go wrong with her. A real joy to spend time with her"

Tasty food and tastier tidbits
"Ruth was wonderful! Her language skills were amazing and her food choices were spot on. She tailored the tour to what we wanted to see/eat/ had already seen and let us take a "bubbly" break vs a coffee break. She's very personable and knowledgeable about history as well as local food and architecture. We loved our tour and 100% recommend Ruth."

Anna is the best
"We had a wonderful time with Anna and learned much about the history of Finland and its relationship with Russia. Anna has the best personality and was an absolute joy to be around. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn more about Finland or Russia. A very sweet person!! "

Perfect guide for me
"Tommy met me on time near the train station and we began our tour. He speaks clear and substantive English so our conversations were very free flow. He understood that I was very tired as I had just come off a 13 hour flight and was on a layover. He paced the tour knowing this. He showed me things I would never have discovered on my own or in a big tour group. We discussed Finnish history, architecture, contemporary issues and other subjects. His ability to figure out what I wanted to see and hear about made it a terrific tour. I just wish I had more time that day. We ended up back at the train station on time and he made sure I caught the correct train back to the airport. All in all, the tour felt like a leisurely stroll with a new friend rather than a guide trying to rush. Kudos for Tommy. I recommend him highly."

Anna is the best guide ever!
"With many Withlocals tours, I strongly recommend Anna and her vast Helsinki experience. Her complete knowledge of Finnish, Swedish and Russian history made the tour a lasting memory. Additionally, she allowed and answered every question we had with a smile that never ended. Anna checks all the boxes for a wonderful day. "

Correction to Previous Review
"Our tour was wonderful. Anna knows so much about the history and culture of Helsinki. Anna was incredibly kind and gracious. She encourage questions and made sure to add a hint of humor to her responses and explanations. When our tour was over she made sure we knew how to make it to our next destination. Anna is the best! Our previous review incorrectly stated we were in Estonia. "

Kurzweiliger und interessanter Rundgang
"Uns hat die Tour mit Tommy sehr gut gefallen. Er hat uns die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten Helsinkis vorgestellt, uns die Stadt und Finnland näher gebracht und hat uns darüber hinaus auch noch individuelle Tipps für unseren weiteren Aufenthalt gegeben. Wir können Tommy als Guide jederzeit empfehlen. "
