I joined the tour a few days ago on a weekend trip to Helsinki. Unbeknownst to us until near the end of the tour, it was Erin’s second such outing, yet she was extremely informative throughout, showing real passion for architecture, Finnish culture and history as well as sharing her enthusiasm and knowledge with others.
An extremely informative, memorable and enjoyable tour. Thumbs up!
