Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Highly recommended guided trip
    Had a fantastic private kayak trip under the expert guidance of Tiina. The initial briefing was thorough but swift and the paddling itself was stunning.

    The four of us all have different levels of experience and everyone enjoyed it. 3 hours was just about the perfect duration.

    The facilities on land are also great. Clean, secure etc.

    Would highly recommend this excursion to anyone wanting to see the beauty of the islands around Helsinki.

    Best day ever!
    Absolutely wonderful experience on the Helsinki archipelago snow mobile tour.

    Kenneth, Anders and Henrichs were so friendly, helpful, and full of knowledge and wonderful stories about this beautiful Country.

    Also, we can't thank Kenneth and Wifi the dog enough for welcoming us into their home life.

    If you want a fun experience that takes you to the most beautiful and peaceful place on this earth THEN DO THIS TRIP!!! Worth every penny.

    Friendly summer fun
    Had a perfect time with my party at Hakuna Matata, Helsinki. Very friendly staff, got great advice and all my questions answered before kayaking on Töölönlahti Bay. Had the feeling the staff really wanted us to enjoy and have a good time. And it is so cool to observe the city center from the Bay.

    Bengtskär and Turku archipelago excursions
    I attended Bengtkär lighthouse and Turku archipelago trips and both of them were very well organized and showed the best of Finland. Bengtskär was a magical place not only because it’s an amazing building but also due to its fascinating history and hundreds of eiders nesting on the island. Food was super delicious and fresh at all restaurants we visited during excursions.

    Sailing in Turku archipelago was really fun and we had even chance to compete against each other. Relaxing in sauna and jacuzzi were well deserved after the exciting competition.

    I can warmly recommend Norman Travels, since they have selected very good destinations and high-quality partners for their excursions.

    Heaven
    It was such a peaceful experience to spend a couple of hours paddling around Seurasaari; I would do it again in a heartbeat. Kajus was very friendly and helpful in getting us started. My thanks go out to him for a truly unforgettable experience!

    SUP paddleboarding in July
    I went there for a paddleboarding newbie experience. The young staff were nice and helpful, the equipment seemed new and we got the necessary information on paddling techniques, do's and don'ts. The experience was fun and very reassuring. The place is close to Sibelius monument and Seurasaari.
