"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."
"First, I want to say what a terrific guide Ruth was! As soon as we booked this tour, Ruth reached out to ask questions about us, where we were coming from, how long we would be in Helsinki, and if we had anything specific we wanted to try.
I let her know that we wanted to try everything and anything that would be eaten by people in Helsinki. Ruth did not disappoint. We tried reindeer, bear, elk, whitefish, salmon, as well as local pastries and chocolate.
Ruth took us to places that locals enjoy, and told us the history of the food and the businesses.
As we walked from place to place she pointed out historical buildings and took us inside some of the buildings to show us additional, beautiful architecture.
Ruth was a wealth of knowledge about Finlands history, too. We never felt rushed and were able to linger at restaurants and continue conversations before starting off for another establishment.
Don’t hesitate to book this tour, and ask that Ruth be your guide!"
"Ruth was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who was well prepared with information and brochures about what we were seeing with her and recommendations for later.
Her food tasting were excellent and we went back to some the next day. She effortlessly modified the tour for our walking ability and pace.
The tour was so much more than a food tour with ‘tastes’ of history and local life. "
