Amazing private tour - Tatiana was the most wonderful guide! She really knew her stuff and guided me through Porvoo with knowledge and grace. It is most definitely a private tour and was fun to get to know the towns history. Additionally, she gave some great recommendations of where to go/what to do in Helsinki as well after the tour was over. I’d give her 10 stars if I could! She was great!
