The glorious Art Nouveau façade of the Finnish capital, combined with an excursion to lush forests and crystal clear lakes in the countryside, make up a leisurely day tour. Join a knowledgeable local guide who shares intriguing anecdotes along the route of a private excursion.

Admire the grandeur of Senate Square in the heart of Helsinki as you stand in awe in front of the mighty, 19th-century neoclassical cathedral and the impressive Government Palace. Soak up the lively atmosphere among the delightful stalls of the bustling Market Square. Then visit the green heart of Helsinki, Sibelius Park, to see the monument—resembling organ pipes—that was named after Jean Sibelius, a famous composer.

Enter the mysterious underworld of Temppeliaukio Church, carved into the rock. A solemn place of prayer, its otherworldly interior is also home to a popular concert hall. Breathe in fresh air in the fragrant pine forests of Lake Tuusula region, a country getaway of city residents, where quaint villages dot the shores of calm, crystal clear lakes.

Visit Ainola and Halosenniemi, famed for enchanting wooden architecture, to see the museum and former house and workplace of Pekka Halonen, one of the most renowned painters of the nation. Enjoy a take a breaking coffee break in Krapi, surrounded by postcard-perfect rural idyll along the scenic shores of Lake Tuusula. Return to Helsinki via a design center, and see contemporary Finnish craftwork and art on display.
