Reviews for Finland summer activity vacation, Hämeenlinna to Turku

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
We really enjoyed everything about our vacation. Some standout moments include kickbiking around Tampere, overnight in the glass-roof cabin, the boat trips, the scenery everywhere, and the food.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Look closely at the itinerary to understand what you will be doing each day and where you need to be. It was all very well organized. Keep an open mind about some of the accommodation (the beds were a bit small for the kids at times). For biking activities, spend some time to study routes and make sure you are GPS-ready for them.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Absolutely. We ate in restaurants, stayed in local hotels, and travelled around using environmentally-friendly modes of transportation. We intentionally chose this vacation for these reasons. All trains and buses were on time.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
It was great, and our contact at the operator (Riitta) was always responsive and helpful. We've never done anything like this before and no one wanted to go home at the end of the vacation.Jeremy Parker review 8 Aug 2023

Really enjoyed the cycling trip round the archipelago, but also just fitting into Summer Vacation life in Finland - saunas, swimming in lakes, etc...2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Just relax - vacationing in Finland is very easy; food, transport and accommodation all great.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
It was really nice to travel round on public transport and bicycles, etc, which did feel like a more sustainable way to travel. Nice to also support local hotels which made it feel like a really bespoke vacation. Brilliant also to have local guides for the tours - such interesting and friendly people!4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Brilliant - just need to head back for Winter visit (planning underway!)Holiday Reviews
