Finland · LUNCH EXPERIENCES IN HELSINKI
A Finnish week has fewer free days than it looks. These 9 lunch experiences in Helsinki justify the slot, priced and timed so the decision takes minutes rather than an evening.
Guided hike in Nuuksio National Park from Helsinki with lake views, a campfire lunch of Finnish snacks, and homemade berry juice.
“it was fun overall. the campfire lunch, local food for lunch, the guide and the nature. we were lucky with the weather too. couldnt ask for more.”
Helsinki national park hike ends with a Finnish smoke sauna, lake dip, and campfire lunch, small group from downtown.
“Alex was a fantastic tour guide! He went above and beyond to make sure that we had a good time and answered every question. Thank you so much for making this trip so special!”
Half-day hike in Nuuksio National Park from Helsinki, with lakeside views, berry juice, and campfire lunch plus photos.
“I really enjoyed being part of this experience. Nikolai was an excellent guide, he was very knowledgeable of the trails, as well as the plant in animal life of the forest.”
Taiga hike from Helsinki to Liesjärvi National Park, small-group with guide, lake-side Finnish campfire lunch, and round-trip transfers.
“This was a wonderful day with Alex. Walking through the woods he pointed out the mushrooms, lichen, and birds around us. He shared information about Finland which is helpful in learning about a country and their culture. He made a delicious Finnish lunch by the lake, salmon and potato soup. The walk back to the vehicle was just as enjoyable-the ground looked like various shades of green carpeting. The nice part is also that the weather cooperated-no rain. No wind either until the end. Perfect day and a wonderful way to spend a day in Finland. Thanks Alex!”
Half-day nature escape from Helsinki to Porkkalanniemi, with a small-group guided walk and a Finnish-style lunch by the Baltic Sea.
“We had a great time walking around and having a nice lunch, it's very quiet and relaxing, and a nice way to switch up our time exploring Helsinki to see something outside the city!”
Snowmobile safari from central Helsinki into the archipelago, with warm gear, campfire lunch, hot drinks, and winter activities.
“Exceptionnel. On est passer par la forêt et on a eu un temps magnifique. Les hotes été très accueillants et conviviaux.”
Snowmobile across Helsinki’s frozen archipelago with full gear, open-fire island lunch, snowshoe or ice fishing, and round-trip transfers.
“The tour was a wonderful experience with a personal touch thanks to the guide. I would recommend it to my friends. It felt like he was taking his family on a snowmobile tour. I never would have thought it possible to experience a 35-40 km tour just 30 minutes from Helsinki. Thank you so much for the unforgettable trip!”
Take a RIB speed-boat across Helsinki’s archipelago, hike an island, then enjoy sauna time and a snack lunch with salmon soup.
“We had such a memorable day today! Olli was an AMAZING guide. He took my husband and out on the RIB boat, which felt a lot like riding a jet ski (without getting wet of course). From there we went to a small island where we got to take in the sights, spend time in a wood sauna, have a wonderful Finnish lunch of Salmon soup (prepared by Olli), and just enjoy the beautiful outdoor weather. My husband and I felt safe and in good capable hands all day. We will never forget this excursion and definitely recommend it to anyone coming to Helsinki.”
Arctic ice hovercraft day trip from Helsinki with warm gear, a guided walk, icy swim suits, and a campfire barbecue lunch.
“Escursione perfetta in tutto: gentilezza e preparazione della guida e dei piloti dell'hovercraft e della rompighiaccio, attrezzatura fornita validissima, pranzo vicino al fuoco in un paesaggio incantato. Imperdibile, vale pienamente il suo costo. Abbiamo trovato il Baltico gelato in una magnifica giornata di sole, incredibilmente bello!”
One list per kind of day, north and south.
