Our guide’s passion for Turku Cathedral and Castle really shone through. The private car made the trip super comfy, though I wouldn’t mind an extra 10 minutes at the cathedral gift shop. A brilliant intro to Finland’s roots!

Turku’s medieval market was a fun surprise, and our guide patiently answered all our random questions. Maybe a little more background before arriving would help set the scene, but this was a solid day trip.

Turku Castle blew me away—those dungeons were chilling! Only gripe: we zipped through the market a bit too fast. Still, VIP car transfers and our guide’s warm humor made it a day to remember.
