Sauna Tours

Sauna tours of Happy Guide Helsinki

What would be a more natural way to get into the Finnish culture than visiting a sauna after hearing the story behind this unique and healthy culture as well as seeing some of the main sights of Helsinki?

Our Helsinki Sights & Sauna Tour offers you a perfect way to do this by walking in the city center’s harbour area to see attractions and visiting the new, praised design sauna of Allas Sea Pool with a possibility to dip into one of their pools to swim.

Optionally we also have one of our long-time favourites, Sunset Sauna Cycle, available to you as an alternative to get a bit deeper into the local sauna culture. On this tour you will see the city a bit further and fully experience one of the classic saunas of the city, which are traditionally located in the old working class neighbourhoods of Helsinki.

Both of those are prime examples of our sustainable travel services. In 2022 we became official sertified Green Activities and Sustainable Travel Finland responsible travel design provider.

No matter which one you choose, it will surely be something special for you to remember about Finland!
