A Private Day Trip from Helsinki to Turku

About this activity

Travel back in time on a private full-day trip from Helsinki to Turku, Finland’s oldest city and former capital. Enjoy a comfortable ride with your friendly English-speaking driver through scenic countryside before discovering Turku’s rich history and charm.

Begin at the Turku Castle, a 13th-century fortress filled with grand halls, dungeons, and exhibits that reveal Finland’s medieval past. Continue along the Aura Riverfront, where cafés, historic ships, and museums line the scenic waterway — ideal for a peaceful stroll or photo stop. Experience everyday Finnish culture at the Turku Market Square, bustling with local vendors offering fresh produce, flowers, and crafts. Finally, visit Forum Marinum, Finland’s National Maritime Museum, to explore maritime exhibits and admire historic ships moored nearby.

Your driver will then take you back to Helsinki, ending a memorable journey through Finland’s history and coastal beauty.
