We saw ALL of the top tourist attractions, and more. Even though Paulo is not from Finland his wife is, and he has an... More

We had booked Paulo's Tours long before reaching Finland, - in part, because of the excellent feedback on TA. Second, we wished to be educated about the country not simply taken to a number of photo opportunities around town. Paulo gave us an excellent insight into what makes the Fins 'tick', their history, culture, art and social structures. Yes, he... More

We came from Scotland to spend a weekend in Helsinki. Paulo knows so much about Helsinki and it's culture and he is very passionate and enthusiastic about what he does. He took us to amazing places and we all had a great time and shared some good laughs. More

We emailed Paulo from Australia to organise a tour, he was extremely efficient and called us to confirm the details. We were met at the airport and taken to the hotel. After a couple of hours rest, we were off on our day tour. Paulo is very knowledgable and we saw all the highlights in Helsinki and Porvoo. It was... More

Went on a tour with Paulo after others on our cruise organized directly with Paulo. He even rang me in Australia from Finland to arrange payment and explain the tour and to put my mind at ease. It was an excellent tour to porvoo as well as all the sights in town. The rock church opened for the first time... More

Paulo knows every corner of Helsinki, as well as the stories behind them. Honest and candid about them and also gives his own unique/satirical insights on life in Finland. Very helpful with the local knowledge. Thanks to Paulo and his spacious van "Big Mike" for providing us 2 wonderful and interesting days touring Helsinki and Porvoo - 2 short trips... More
