Good half day tour from Helsinki. Pickup and return were seamless. Our guide was really good and give us an overview of the history of Finland as well as Porvoo. An interesting old town with many buildings now converted to shops and cafe's. The Church was a particular highlight. You have about two and a half hours in the town - including about an hour on the guided tour - which was just about right for us. the Chrich was particiularly intersting

Our tour guide was professional, very courteous with very detailed information about Porvoo. We enjoyed our time at Porvoo with her during the walking tour. The logistics of this trip is you are transferred by vehicle from Helsinki to Porvoo, where you meet your tour guide. Tour length a bit misleading, as it includes the transfer to/from Helsinki, which is ok, with only about 90 minutes at most at Porvoo, so no time for shopping, eating or quick recap of the highlights of the tour. But, as a snapshot of the town it is ok.

a long trip for a samll, old town. Not really worth the time going to and from. But at least we have done it and now we move on.

Cute little day trip out of Helsinki, but not a lot to see in Porvoo
