Wat je gaat doen
This 2.5 hour walking tour focuses on the architectural history of Helsinki, the styles, the building materials, the main architects and stories about the buildings themselves linking to Finnish culture, the Finnish Nationalist movement of the 19th century and modern day trends. The main point of this walking tour is to do what most locals never do while in the city centre: look up and enjoy the fascinating and fantastic Helsinki architecture.
Other things to note
Rain is common in Helsinki so please check the weather forecast and dress accordingly. There is a fair amount of walking involved so comfy footwear is advised!

I was first introduced to tour guiding by a friend of a friend in an empty karaoke bar in a Madrid backstreet in 2014 and 3 weeks later I was a tour guide.
Fast forward 5 years, and after a brief stint in Barcelona, I find myself in Helsinki, and like many foreigners here, I moved here for love. I quickly found work as a tour guide and nothing makes me happier than showing off what this vastly underrated city has to offer.

The architecture walk with Ed was absolutely wonderful! It was a great route, I learned a lot about Helsinki, architecture, Finnish history and Finland in general, and Ed was very entertaining and enthusiastic. He pointed out many interesting things that I would not have spotted on my own, and I‘m very glad I did this tour! Absolutely recommended!

Ed’s architectural tour of Helsinki was a fantastic way to spend an afternoon. We learnt all about the history of the city through the changing architectural styles. He was engaging, knowledgeable and organised. The tour lasted 2.5 hours and was excellent value for money! If you’re interested in discovering more about Helsinki and are interested in architecture this is the tour for you. (Ed also did our group a special Saturday tour as we couldn’t make his Friday time - what a star!)
