    As you drive east from Helsinki, listen to your driver-guide share fascinating stories about Finland’s history, landscapes, and local life. Arrive in Porvoo, a medieval town on the Porvoo River, known for its cobblestone streets, colourful wooden buildings, and iconic red riverside warehouses.

    Explore the Old Town on a guided walking tour, visiting the Porvoo Cathedral, a 15th-century Lutheran landmark, and the J. L. Runeberg’s Home, a museum dedicated to Finland’s national poet. Enjoy free time to shop, relax in a café, or take photos of the charming scenery.

    Optionally, stop at the Brunberg Chocolate Shop or have lunch by the river (at your own expense). On the way back to Helsinki, make a short stop to enjoy the natural surroundings. End your tour with a drop-off at your chosen location in Helsinki.
