Heather's Helsinki Ltd.

One of the best food tours we’ve been on! Heather was extremely knowledgeable about all things Finnish cuisine AND gave us a great overview of the culture. The tastings were delicious and varied and we left with full bellies.

Heather's Helsinki was the highlight of my brief trip to Helsinki; it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Heather’s passion for food, history, and local culture made the tour both delicious and very engaging. The pacing was great, nice and steady, and the amount of food was just right. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough — it’s a must-do for anyone visiting the city.

This was my first food walking tour in a city and it's a fantastic tour. Heather was very knowledgeable, friendly and answered all questions. The tour was full of knowledge and information about the local culture, language(s) history and of course, the food including the local produce and how it is farmed sustainably. Finland has the highest food standards in the world. Nine different, varied courses and not leaving you too full afterwards. About three miles walked.

Such an insightful and in-depth food tour! I don't want to spoil all of the surprises about where we went and what we tasted, but if you're interested in Finnish food culture and seeing what life is like in Helsinki, you won't regret taking this tour. Heather is a fount of knowledge and the rest of my time in Finland was spent telling my friends "oh yeah, we learned about this on Heather's tour!" She is really flexible about finding alternatives if you don't like something (I got a lovely tart for lunch instead of the normal salmon soup because I really don't like salmon), but also keep an open mind because I tried several things that I didn't expect to like but ended up really liking. Thanks for such a fabulous experience, Heather!

We had such a memorable couple of days with Heather. We started out with a food tour and then booked her privately for a day tour to Porvoo. The food tour was fantastic where we learnt so much and ate yummy things. Our private guide experience was tailored to what we wanted to see and do including the Rock church and Cat Cafe. Heather also taught us how to roll snowballs to make a huge snowman! Thank you Heather, we will always remember this time and you so fondly.

My family and I loved Heather’s Fork in Hand tour around Helsinki! Heather’s knowledge and love for the food, city, and culture shined from the beginning to the end of the tour. I can’t imagine a better introduction to the city and food! We left inspired to taste more of Helsinki!

Loved our food tour with Heather! She was so knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, and especially great with our kids (10 and 13). They’re adventurous eaters and it was nice to see how she engaged with them. We got to see and learn a lot about Finnish culture, food, and history, and we all loved our visit to the Markethall on the harbour.

Absolutely loved it! Such a comprehensive tour— not only do you get plentiful food, but you learn soooo much. Both about the food and where you are walking around Helsinki. Heather is a delightful guide and you won’t regret going on this tour. It was amazing to do this our first day in Helsinki to get a lay of the land and have a foundation for the rest of our trip. Can’t recommend this tour enough!
