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.

What travellers are saying
- Mikael AUmeå, Sweden41 contributionsVery cozy place. Went there with my girlfriend for a couple of beers. We each bought a "tasting platter" containing 6 beers on each. I'd definitely recommend that! Great way to try their own beers. Some exciting, some good and some decent.
Good service, and overall a fun place to visit.Written 17 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It tells about the history of Vasa and Osterbotten and they have also many important paintings from the golden age of Finnish painting in the Hedmans collection. Well worth visiting.Written 23 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MoominMamma1Stockholm, Sweden9 contributionsThis is the shortest crossing time over the gulf of Bothnia. 4 hours. Ok ferry but nothing special. If sunny sit outside!Written 6 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Anna J9 contributionsReally exciting environment to see how it looks today but also before when it was a very very shallow lake.
Interesting historia bott local and international.
Very good guidesWritten 13 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Terranova is a very good biological museum. You could call it a natural science exhibition, too. It specializes in local nature, especially the Kvarken archipelago (Merenkurkun saaristo), which is Finland's first natural heritage site on the list of UNESCO. It was a good idea to get to know this exhibition first and then visit Saltkaret (an observation tower, read separate Tripadvisor reviews) in Mustasaari to see these same things in real nature.
Terranova is a modern and well-kept museum. I really recommend it. Besides, it is easy to visit there, because it is situated almost in the city center.Written 11 July 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I would highly recommend Wasa Up to anyone looking for a fun and challenging workout. Special praise to Johannes, I'll definitely be back for more lessons 🙂Written 28 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 967harria18 contributionsClose to the Old Vaasa ruins. If you go to see the ruins, do not miss the church. Used to be a court house. Check the times to get inside. If possible choose a sunny morning/day for the interior. Nice linden alley next to the church. And it is free.Written 30 November 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Christine DAuckland, New Zealand178 contributionsThis car museum is in an old factory. It doesn't look much from the outside but it has some interesting cars and history especially Finnish racing car and rally history.Written 23 September 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AAdeRotteOegstgeest, The Netherlands165 contributionsThis meteor crater is a place of cosmic connection with the universe. Although is is not very spectacular at first, it becomes all the more fascinating if one realises what has happened here 500.000.000 years ago. The information centre is quite informative, for adults as well as for children. Look on the web site to see the opening times.Written 5 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Maria EHärnösand, Sweden122 contributionsExpensive considering the experience was not very satisfying. Jacuzzi was not warm, not a pleasant experience to sit in any one of them. The kids did enjoy the park with its wave machine and water slides etc. It is a rather small water park, and seems to be left to its destiny…not properly maintained. Staff was nice, sauna and showers very good.Written 27 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- JamppaT2009Tampere, Finland18 contributionsFamous location because of a TV program that is popular for people who likes to learn practical hand works!Written 16 December 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- l5anttiHelsinki, Finland762 contributionsRuins are nice but nothing spectacular. Surroundings are pleasant to walk around. Old houses, beautiful gardens and square block city plan are something to watch. Also imperial white church is impressive view. Canal is dried out to small stream. We didn't find the art park which was shown in a map. Anyway this all is free and parking lots are found near the food store and church for a short walking in old residential area.Written 8 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
