Helsinki Tours in November 2026

The start was rocky with the cancellation of our flight over to Finland but after that everything went well. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable. My most memorable experience was seeing the Northern Lights. I missed not seeing snow but it couldn't be helped.

Nancy Thomsen, our tour manager, was awesome! Loved learning about Finland, local food, and traditions. While excursions were limited due to lack of snow we still had a great time. Certainly the highlight of the trip was our good fortune to see a magical display of the Aurora our first night in Lapland. A truly once in a lifetime experience.

We had some hiccups on flights and the unusually warm temperatures eliminated any snow activities. But our tour manager made adjustments and it was a great trip. The Northern Lights alone were worth the trip. Still enjoyed learning and seeing Helsinki. Finding out about the management of the dog sleds was enlightening. Horse carriage ride was fun as well.

. The trip to Scandinavia was fascinating. The highlight was saying the northern lights! was professional, friendly, and informative. The hotels were excellent, and the breakfasts were outstanding. The dinners were mostly good, with a few exceptions. We had an excellent bus driver as well!

It was an enjoyable trip for me and my family. All the bookings, information and documentation through My Trip of the app were fantastic. The hotels were good well located at the heart of the towns/cities for easy commute and shopping etc. The breakfast were good except in Moxy Bergen Hotel -where the breakfast was very limited with hardly any variety. Just a few suggestions to make the trips better :- 1. The pick up drop from/to airport were arranged but the driver details were given too late - at Copenhagen only after landing we got the driver name phone. In Helsinki, we were never given driver name and phone. The driver reached for pickup about 10 minutes late - I was speaking to the local agency on the number given but they refused to share the details. 2. Also, the pick up at Helsinki was two half hours before our flight departure and we reached airport just 2 hrs before the departure time. That day the security queue was few kms long and we almost missed our flight. You should always drop passengers at airport 3 hrs before departure. 3. Due to a hurricane in North sea, we were not taken to Aarhus on the Day 2 and then onward to Stavanger by road/sea and missed the sight seeing completely on the Day 3. We should have been compensated with some other sightseeing in other locations as time was sufficient and on a few days there were plenty of free time. This was a little disappointing. 4. Tour Director Andre was fantastic with his involvement, interaction and guidance. Would be happy to travel with him again in the coming years. 5. But Tour Director Mercedes - starting from Stockholm To Helsinki - was not upto mark on her job capabilities. Her English speaking was extremely poor, she was not much involved with the group and guidance was poor. Also her knowledge was found to be poor atleast from her English narrations. Hope you will take steps to improve the above. Look forward to travel with Europamundo again in some other European locations in the coming years. Thank You All the best

I like the itinerary , we got to see the aurora x 2 However, the excursion prices are too expensive. I am aware there’s not enough snow to do snowmobile and snowshoeing so it’s ok. The City on the Move with Fika and walk in the Forest should have been free. I also have a problem with the dinners . For those of us who don’t want to eat reindeer and fish , there should be other options .. maybe sandwiches. The hotels are nice. I like and . They’re both excellent in what they do. I felt safe.
