We asked for an authentic Finland experiences...

Finland | May 30 - Jun 8, 2025

Location great! Staff was lovely. Bedding good- all very clean Mattresses need replacement .

Amazing breakfast! Had local Finnish musicians playing on Saturday night.

Alex was so accommodating, knowledgeable and fun-Easy to talk to and be with as well. It was our 1st full day and we went out to this beautiful area with the freshest air. Alex pointed out many things along our trek and put together a fabulous lunch for us.

Anna Marie is so knowledgeable about Finnish history and her strong connection to Turku. It was a rainy morning but we had a full tour. The hotel has well made umbrellas and the rain was not an issue. The tour does take more than 1.5 hours - realistically 2-2.5 hours and we walked fairly quickly with some inclines. Wear supportive sneakers!

Matti was a fabulous guide- full of information and guidance given in a thoughtful way. He to us to a mixed public sauna on a gorgeous clean lake. I can’t say enough about our experience. It was an enlivening experience!! Bring your sauna shoes( flip flops are fine) and don’t eat only a small meal or snack, if needed, before heading out.

This was a lovely boat ride even though we didn’t see any seals. Our guide was very knowledgeable and did his best. It became a bit rainy and the seals don’t like the rain! The lake is beautiful and did see ospreys. Lots of binoculars available on the boat.
