What travelers are saying

"My wife and I did the six day Lofoten Islands tour offered by 50 Degrees North. The tour is simple, they provided us a rental car, accommodations for two nights each at three Rorbuer hotels scattered across the islands, and a couple of scheduled day tours. Most of the time, we were on our own to see the islands at our own pace. The islands are stunningly beautiful, and the tour planning made our travels hassle free. They even scheduled lunch for us at an organic goat farm, which may sound a little strange for a vacation like this, but that is only because you haven't tasted the cheese. (Best lunch ever!) At our request, they altered the tour slightly so that we could begin the tour in Svolvaer and end it six days later at the airport in Leknes. We can't imagine a more complete tour of the islands in six short days."

What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"First time we (mom and daughter) have done a tour and first time with on the go tours. What a special trip we had doing the 13 day Casablanca to Essaouira Morocco tour (26 Nov - 6 Dec 2023). We started the first 8 days doing the totally Morocco tour and the last few days at our own pace with down time in Essaouira. Jamal our guide led the tour from start to finish and took us safely on a culture filled journey. His knowledge of the country, it’s history and people was informative and inspiring. Every request was “no problem” and delivered with a smile and happy demeanour. Everything in Morrocco was “no problem” and we felt safe and looked after. We were driven in a comfortable coach with enough stops along the way to not feel long by our competent driver Suleman. The hotels, Riad and Dar were extremely comfortable with exceptional service. We would not have had the same experience travelling on our own, we felt as though we truly experienced Morocco. Everything was a highlight for us and we will definitely book another on the go tour in the future. If you wanting to see true Morocco we would strongly recommend doing this tour."

What travelers are saying

"Our family of four, including two adult children, took the Bicycling: Day Trips to Paradise in Canada. This trip is entirely outsourced to the owners of the inn, there are no Road Scholar employees involved in the trip. Two of us have taken bicycle trips all over the world and the bicycling component of this trip was disorganized, haphazard and almost unsafe. We all filled out forms giving details regarding our bicycle fitting months before the trip. On the first day, the leader Stephen, went around the room and asked the same questions and said everyone would get fitted in the morning before we began the first ride. The morning brought a rack of bikes, all different types in various levels of readiness. There were road bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes. The rides were all on paved surfaces and the mountain bikes were heavy and the additional suspension added weight. The bike I received had rust on the chain and rear sprocket. When I asked about it, was told they were waiting for another van to show up with tools and equipment. Once it arrived, they gave me the lubricant to spray on the rust. My wife’s bike would not shift into the high gear on the front sprocket. Instead of adjusting the derailleur, they suggested spraying it with lubricant. Our one son is over six feet and needed a larger frame bike, even though he detailed it in the bike form months ago, there was no bike to fit him. One of the guides, then went home and brought a larger bike that was a full suspension mountain bike for him. The bike was very heavy, hard to control on the road and he felt unsafe. After two days, one of the guides convinced Stephen that they could adjust a hybrid bike to fit him. Clearly there was no work done to prepare the bikes for the trip. Many of the bikes needed adjusting and all needed lubricant to function easily. For every day, there was a tray of snacks placed out for us to take along the ride. None of the bikes had any baskets or attached bags, so if you didn’t bring a small day pack, there was no way to carry the snacks. For lunch on the rides, they brought exactly one sandwich for each rider. Since most of us get hungry while doing a day of exercise, it would have been helpful to have a few extras. On one day, they ran out of sandwiches and one of the leaders that were riding with us did not get lunch. Do NOT take this trip if you are expecting it to be a bicycling trip. We have used VBT and Discovery Bicycle Tours many times over the past 25 years and they are excellent bike tour companies. Lastly, after sharing these details with Road Scholar after the trip, their response was weak at best. After doing the full reviews and having to call them, their response was to give us $200 credit after spending $8000 on this trip. Not only was that insulting, they assumed that I would take another trip with their organization."

Helsinki Tour Selection Trips

  • Consider a Helsinki tour company with multilingual guides - usually tours in Finland are given in both English and Finnish, but often private tour companies can also accommodate speakers of Spanish, German, Russian, Japanese, French, Italian and more.
  • If sustainable tourism is dear to your heart, consider asking about your Helsinki tour company’s commitment to treading lightly on the region you’re visiting. Typically this means your tour will showcase Helsinki using public transportation, walking and biking.
  • Consider the time of year of your Helsinki vacation. In May, June and September, the temperatures are warmer and the days longer. Peak months (the busiest) are July and August.
  • Helsinki food tours are taking off as the city makes it mark on the world’s culinary stage. Ask your Helsinki tour guide for recommendations and advance reservations at their favorite eateries.

Additional details

Weather in Helsinki

Similar to other areas of Finland, the weather in Helsinki can be fickle. Depending on how much of your Finland tour you would like to spend indoors or outside in nature, consider these average temperatures when making plans.

For most of the year, temperatures feel relatively cool, with the warmest temperatures in July, August and then June. In late July, you can expect highs around 75 degrees F and lows of 60 degrees F.

Getting Around Helsinki

While your Helsinki tour operator will likely have the insider connections on the best way to get around the Finnish capital, here’s a quick look at the city’s great public transportation options:

The Ring Rail Line runs every 10 minutes during the day between the airport and city center, about a half-hour ride. A taxi from the Helsinki airport into the city will cost about EUR 50. Another option is the FinnAir bus - complete with WiFi.

Helsinki travelers may purchase a standard ticket from Helsinki Region Transport, which can be used for trams, buses, metro, local trains and the Suomenlinna ferry. Go one step further and purchase a Helsinki Card, perfect for one-, three- and five-day Helsinki tours.

Hop on a leisurely green-and-yellow tram to move about Helsinki on your tour - tickets are EUR 2.50 each.

The Helsinki metro system provides service from Ruoholahti to Mellunmäki and Vuosaari.

Three main Helsinki train lines departs throughout the day from the Helsinki central railway station.

If you prefer to get around by taxi, you’re in luck - the taxis in Finland are luxurious automobiles. Now’s your chance to arrive at your Helsinki destination in style - typically in a comfortable Mercedes or something similar. Be forewarned, however, that Helsinki taxis are not permitted to pick up passengers off the street. Look for the taxi signs at designated pick-up spots.

Get around on your Helsinki tour by your own pedal power. There are excellent bike routes throughout the Finnish capital and bikes are easily rented at several locations throughout the city. There is also a shared-use bicycle program.

How Many Days Should I Plan for a Helsinki Tour?

Most Helsinki tours - on their own- are two or three days, giving one ample time to hit the city’s highlights and get a feel for its character. We recommend adding a Tallinn day trip to your Helsinki visit - it’s a two-hour ferry ride away and well worth the additional time.

What Languages Are Spoken in Helsinki?

You will hear Finnish and Swedish spoken throughout your Helsinki vacation - 12.2% of the population also speaks a second language. Most residents are fluent in English.
