What are we going to do
Helsinki; the city where things work, and public transportation is no exception. It works flawlessly and is ranked among the best, not just in Europe but in the world. Helsinki also has one of the oldest tram systems in the world that dates back to 1891! In the city centre areas, trams are the first choice of the locals when it comes to transportation. In this tour, you will visit various parts of this beautiful city that would not have tourist crowds and you will enjoy it like a local, by using the famous tram system of Helsinki. We will explore Helsinki with local transport to get a fancy and easy-going authentic experience. You will discover hidden locations that you wouldn’t find in standard tour itineraries; places full of secret parks, beautiful cafes and pubs, flea markets, great views and needless to say impressive architecture. In addition to all of these, you will get to keep your day ticket after the tour which is valid for 24 hours.
About Emek - the Doer
I am a city planner with a master's degree in Urban Policy Studies and a PhD student (Urban Studies/Social Policy) in University of Helsinki. I wanted to combine my love for Helsinki with my knowledge and research about the history, culture and planning of the city and share it with a wider audience so I became a professional tour guide!
