I am especially comfortable doing private, thematic, or customized walking tours with small groups, but I can also handle bigger groups both on foot (with a microphone and loudspeaker), as well as by bus. I also do accessible tours for wheelchair users, tours using public transportation (e.g. from the cruise ship port, max 8 people), and stopover tours (pick-up from airport using train or bus). With my Finnish-Iraqi family background and my interest in history, languages, and cultures, I am an ideal guide for international and multicultural groups and visitors. I am also glad to conduct tours for families with children. In terms of my academic education, I have degrees in Theology and Polish language, as well as pedagogical competence, all from the University of Helsinki. Besides guiding, I am also a teacher and a non-fiction writer. As a theologian I am exceptionally competent in terms of tours exploring the religious side of Helsinki and Finland, and I am happy to lead and host church groups, ecumenical groups and/or pilgrimages. I can accompany groups to other towns (like Porvoo) or plan a pilgrimage or study program in different regions of Finland. I can also show visitors around Vantaa, the airport city and my hometown, or Espoo, famous for the national (and reindeer) park Nuuksio. Medžuslovjansky. Prizyvaju vsih Slovjanov na prohodku v Helsinki na medžuslovjanskom jezyku, ktory jest razumlivy priblizno vsim Slovjanam bez učenja. Dobro došli i do videnja!

Lenita Sandell
Lenita Sandell – authorized tour guide of Helsinki (+ Suomenlinna and Hanko) After having worked for more than 20 years as an Event Marketing Manager at Nokia, in 2022 I started doing events as a freelancer/external Nokia employee. In addition, I became an authorized tour guide in Hanko in 2020 and in Helsinki in 2022 after my studies at Perho Business College. If your customers want to book a guided tour in Helsinki and its surroundings, that’s where I can help out! I love to show the groups the beauty of our capital and make it a different and unforgettable experience. In 2023 my tours included among others several business customer groups from Europe, Asia and Middle East. In addition, I took many German speaking cruiseship passengers on a city/boat tour in Helsinki. The bus or walking tours can be held in English, Finnish, Swedish, German and Spanish. In March 2024 I became an authorized tour guide of the fortress island of Suomenlinna, which is needed in order to take groups there. A typical Helsinki city tour takes 1.5 – 2 hours, but it can always be customized to suit the group’s wishes. Interested to find out more? Feel free to contact me on my mobile or by email.

I offer calm, slow-paced walking tours in Helsinki and Finnish nature for adults, seniors, couples and small groups who prefer depth over speed.

With a background as a hotel and restaurant entrepreneur, I bring a strong sense of service, people understanding and attention to detail. My guiding style is calm, clear and engaging. I also integrate photography into my tours, helping guests capture meaningful moments, not just quick snapshots. My clients are often travelers who value personal connection, quality and a more thoughtful pace. You are warmly welcome if you are looking for something more personal than a standard guided tour.
