Our family of 5 did the transit tour with Mat. We used buses and trams and also walked all over the city. Mat was very knowledgeable and kind. We had delicious berries at the outdoor market. Overall, we had a great time with this tour. Better than what the cruise ship offered.

VERY happy with Happy Tours!
I took the Sustainable City Tour with Anssi as my guide. He was excellent, and his English was fluent. He took me and another tourist all around Helsinki. He really knew the city well and was happy to share his knowledge and love of the city with us. It also gave me an opportunity to learn the city's transportation options. I booked this trip online before my arrival and their staff was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend Happy Tours to anyone visiting Helsinki.
Very doable 4 hr walk with tram rides
Good historical background of city given by our guide Martin. He has good grasp of the architectural developments of the city. Introduced us to local delicacies at the market. Tour covered the major sites to give us a quick overall experience of the city in 4 hours.
