★  What’s Included

My service in English includes:

All the typical activities Finnish people go to nature for, like picking berries, foraging mushrooms, hiking, swimming and snowshoeing. You don’t need to book them separately.

Relaxed schedule for your stress-free experience. We can go when it suits you and stay in the destination for a long time. In 2019 my average time from picking up customers to taking them back was 11 hours.

Privacy and personal experience for you or your small group, on small footpaths. I only do private tours for 1 to 4 people.

Clothing, shoes and other equipment you need in any weather, any time of year. You will only need clothing you’re comfortable to be in your home or hotel. All the outdoor clothing, shoes and equipment according to the weather are included. You can change your clothing inside, in a warm place.

Items you can borrow are:

• Waterproof rain jacket, trousers, shoes, gloves and a hat to keep your whole body dry.
• Warm jacket, shirt, trousers, shoes with ice spikes, socks, gloves, beanie and scarf for cold weather and winter.
• Waterproof backpack for your personal items.
• Summer hat, socks, headlamp, small towel, sit mat and insect protection.
• Walking poles and snowshoes.

Food and drinks for the day from traditional Finnish ingredients that tell the story of what people have eaten in this land. While walking we have snacks and cold or hot to drink depending on the weather, then we have a lunch and tea or coffee, in a shelter if needed, after which we have snacks for the rest of the day.

Transport from your hotel or Airbnb to the destination and back. You will see the landscape change from city center to suburbs and to forest. Drinking water and small snacks are available all the time.

Guiding on small footpaths that take us to really beautiful places, only some locals go to these places. We can have the peace and quiet that Finland’s nature is all about. Guide’s services also include telling you about Finnish nature and helping you in every way possible.

1-on-1 with me, a friendly, open and caring Finnish person. Ask about anything, talk about anything.

Internet connection for the time you are with me.
