"We did the Withlocals Helsinki Highlights & Hidden Gems tour with Anna, and it was a great way to start our time in the city. Anna was knowledgeable, warm, and especially good at reading what we were curious about and building on it in the moment - she answered all of our questions, expanded on certain ideas, made connections across history and culture, and shaped the conversation in a way that felt genuinely tailored to us.
As we walked, she shared clear, useful context on Swedish and Russian influence, Finland’s path to independence, and how those histories still show up in Helsinki today, along with thoughtful observations about where the city and country seem to be headed. It never felt scripted; more like a smart, ongoing conversation with a friend.
We saw major sites like Helsinki Cathedral, Senate Square, and Uspenski Cathedral, but the Central Library was a real highlight, both architecturally and as an example of how much Finland invests in public, shared spaces and its people. The hidden gems were genuinely fun, such as Art Nouveau buildings with animals and trolls, a former bank turned coffee shop, and small local stops we never would have found on our own.
Overall, the tour felt personal, well-paced, and grounded in real insight. If you want an introduction to Helsinki that’s informative, engaging, and tuned to your interests, book this tour and ask for Anna!"
"Anna’s 3 hour talk and walk gave us a great insight into Helsinki - new and old.
We spoke about Helsinki today , the politics and social outlook - some of it embodied in the new multifunctional library building.
We looked back over Helsinki and Finnish past events and ties with Russia whilst walking through the town.
Very informative and much enjoyed by us all."

"Our group of 6 cruisers met Tommy for Highlight of Helsinki 3 Hour City Tour and were so glad we did.
Tommy tailored our tour to start and finish at places convenient to us and to make for an easy walk back to our ship shuttle bus.
We visited so many interesting places but the highlight was the library of all places - what a world class facility.
Tommy was full of plenty of interesting facts all expressed with good humour and knowledge. He kept a pace that was comfortable for everyone.
Absolutely recommend."
