Overview

Design, Architecture, arts, lifestyle, and local legends.
We are the only operators making a walking tours on this route. There will be virtually no overlap with other tours.

We start from Oodi Library and end at the Old Market Hall.

Helsinki is divided into historical and modern centers. In the historical center, we conduct the 1st Helsinki Free tour focusing on the history of Helsinki and Finland. This Modern Helsinki Walking Tour shows you the rest.

The Modern Helsinki Walking Tour focuses on the present and future of the development of our Northern smart city and every day of its people. Many less-known sites are visited, and you will gain an impressive insight into Helsinki as a living city rather than a museum.

Highlights of the tour:
-Awards winner architectural masterpieces: Chapel of Silence, Amos Rex, Oodi
-The parliament - Let's see what the protest is about today.
-Design Museum - Classics of the Finnish design
-Iso-Roobertinkatu - The oasis of nightlife in Helsinki
-The Plague Park - Beautiful and popular park with a grim past
-Kasarmitori - Ministry of Defence - Nato and Finnish military traditions.
-Old Market Square and the Helsinki coastline.
