In Helsinki, we arrange high-quality walking tours, culinary and bike tours, and exquisite wine tastings. Tietoa Vino Toursin perustajasta ja omistajasta, Maddalenasta:

Matkailu, viini ja ruoka ovat DNA:ssani. Kasvoin kahden kulttuurin välissä, äitini on helsinkiläinen ja isäni italialainen, ja jo nuoresta iästä lähtien olen saanut matkustaa paljon. Isovanhempani ol

ivat kotoisin arvostetulta Valpolicellan viinialueelta ja ruoka ja laatuviini ovat todennälöisesti tästäkin syystä aina olleet lähellä sydäntäni. Tämänkin vuoksi lähdin opiskelemaan viinimestariksi, josta valmistuin vuonna 2014. Asun lempikaupungissani Helsingissä jonne perustin myös yritykseni, Vino Toursin, joka erikoistuu tarjoamaan aitoja kokemuksia Suomessa, Italiassa ja muualla Euroopassa. Olen auktorisoitu Helsinki (ja Porvoo) opas ja tarjoan ruokaretkiä ja kävelykierroksia neljällä eri kielellä (suomi, englanti, italia, saksa). Perus nähtävyyksien lisäksi kerron retkilläni kivoja tarinoita ja paljastan mahdollisesti myös joitakin Helsinki-salaisuuksia.

Some information about the founder and owner of Vino Tours, Maddalena:

Travel, wine and food are in my DNA. I grew up between two cultures, my mother being Finnish and my father Italian, and from a very young age, I travelled a lot. My paternal grandparents were from the Italian Valpolicella wine region, and quality wine and food are close to my heart, so much so that I became a sommelier in 2014. I live in Helsinki, my favorite city in the world, where I started my company, Vino Tours, specialising in offering authentic local experiences in Finland, Italy and the rest of Europe. I am an authorised Helsinki (and Porvoo) guide, and I offer guided food and walking tours in four different languages (Finnish, English, Italian and German). In addition to the well-known sights, I make my customers fall in love with Helsinki by letting them in on some of the city’s best well-kept secrets and stories

Now some well deserved eat - sleep aaand repeat. 😉

So yesterday I received my first gold medal for my guiding skills 🤩
Apparently I was ranked by my cooperators clients as the best local guide together with the guide from Alsace. Quite an honor, right? 😊🙏🏼

Danke Christiane & Co. 😘

Happy Birthday my favorite city Helsinki 474 years old today!!!!! 🥳💜🥳

Guiding in the area (2 tours) where the city was originally born is today even more meaningful than usual! 😉

10/06/2024

People tend to ask me a lot about my favorite spots in - here pictured one which can be found in the area where Helsinki was founded and also where the Finnish side of my family is from. The neighborhood is still called which translates into English as old town.

Wanna know more about the area and see the spot? Book a tour with us 🤭

Thank you to the lovely clients in the picture during our walking tour as part of their company recreation day. Until next time! 🙏🏼😍

And sometimes I am asked to customise special tours like this one - a pub/club hopping tour for 3 different groups, twice on a Tuesday and once on a Saturday. This is the last of my groups and we had such fun exploring and dancing the night away even if it was a Tuesday, which is probably the quietest night of the week! Thank you for joining, I had a blast! 🤩🥳

12/04/2024

Did you know that all my tours are designed keeping in mind what I would like to see on a holiday in Helsinki? This is why in addition to some of the most popular sights, I have also added authentic local experiences like cool residential areas and urban nature.

Happy International Women’s day!!! 🌷🌷🌷

Helsinki’s history is filled with strong and fearless female characters! Just to name some: Wivi Lönn, Tove Jansson, Miina Sillanpää, Cajsa Wahllund, Aino Ackté, Aurora Karamzin, Eila Hiltunen, Aino Sibelius, Maila Talvio and pictured one of my favorites, Signe Brander 😍

Signe was the first professional museum photographer in Finland and especially known for documenting urban and cultural change in Helsinki early 20th C. Even though a female photographer was not a rarity during the era, there were only a few working as city photographers. Signe took a total of 907 pictures of Helsinki between 1907-1913. 💪🏼

Greetings from the ! 🤤

Here one of the delicious dishes during the food tour:
Fish plate including whitefish, vendace, salmon, whitefish and rainbow trout roe, archipelago bread and butter and traditional Finnish wild mushroom salad - all except the salmon (and the lime!) are locally sourced!
So why include (Norwegian) salmon to an authentic Finnish food tour? Well, salmon is apparently still the most popular fish that people in Finland put on their plate and seems that there is not enough Finnish wild salmon available! 🧐

Nevertheless, our food tours are as authentic as it gets so gather your group and let’s rock the best city together! 😍😍😍

28/02/2024

The big friendly giant (guide) and her lovely customers from Chicago on the today! 😅
Thank you guys for joining! 😍

The big friendly giant (guide) is tired but happy! 🙏🏼

21/02/2024

Happy clients - Happy guide! 🤩

What a successful it was again today with this pleasant couple from Germany! I need to say, I am very lucky to have such nice clients all the time - makes my job always easier 😉😅

Danke vielmals für die tolle Gesellschaft und hoffentlich sehen wir uns bald wieder! 🙏🏼

This is the best version of a fusion Tiramisù I have ever had - ”Lakkamisu”! Lakka means cloudberry which is the main ingredient of this lovely dessert. Where to eat it? At Ravintola Saaga 💕

Ps. Do you know the meaning of the word(s) tirami sù and its history?
It means pick me up and it comes from the Treviso (Veneto) dialect, “Tireme sù”, Italianised into Tiramisù in the the 20th century. Historical records state that Tiramisù originated in a brothel in Treviso in 1800 and is was offered to customers at the end of the evening in order to reinvigorate them before returning to their wives.
This would seem to be the origin of the Tiremesù, a natural Vi**ra from the 19th century, served to customers in a brothel 😉🤭

And this is what a FUN looks like! 😉😉😉

Merci beaucoup to my super nice guests from Brussels! 😍

How fun it was to explore my city with these Italian men for 2 days! On the first day, we focused on central Helsinki and its culinary side with local dishes and beverages like #napuegintonic #cloudberryliqueur (and many more).

Reading Finnish words is a skill that I like to teach to all my non-Finnish clients.

Greetings from #marjaniemensiirtolapuutarha! Allotment gardens, also known as community gardens, have a long history in Finland, going back to 1917. An allotment garden consists of a group of plots – as few as a dozen or as many as 300. Finland’s 60 allotment garden sites contain a total of approximately 6,000 plots. Gardeners grow a wide range of plants including potatoes, carrots, berries, tomatoes, herbs and apple trees. Most plots also contain rows of different kinds of flowers and ornamental plants. In many community gardens, every plot includes a small cottage. For the most part, allotment gardens are considered public parks. You’re free to roam the paths on your own during opening hours. The plots themselves are private areas though, so you need permission to enter them. The simple life of growing your own vegetables and staying in a small cottage provides a chance to relax and take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. Marjaniemen siirtolapuutarha ry with 320 small cottages, is located in east-Helsinki and was founded in 1946. #visitfinland #thisisfinland #myhelsinki

I bet YOU would LOVE to be here too! 😍😉

PASSION FOR Travel and wines

Vino Tours and more was born out of love for travel, wine and food in January 2016. The main idea of the company is to offer authentic experiences in Finland, Italy and the rest of Europe. As an authorized Helsinki guide, Maddalena, the owner of Vino Tours and more, whose roots are both from Finland and Italy, offers guided walking and food tours in four different languages. Maddalena is very knowledgeable about her city, and in addition to the typical sights, she will also let you in on some well-kept Helsinki secrets and treasures. Wine has always had a special place in Maddalena’s heart; it flows in her veins. Her paternal grandparents were from the Italian Valpolicella wine-area, and she got to know about wine already from a young age while living in the northern regions of Veneto and South Tyrol in Italy. She also completed a sommelier course in 2014. Now she arranges relaxed wine tastings for wine lovers and wine trips to Italy and other European countries. Some of her clients include Munskänkarna and St Wine and friends. She has also been cooperating for many years with the tour operator Profumo d’Italia in arranging cultural and gastronomical trips to Italy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vino Tours and more syntyi tammikuussa 2016 rakkaudesta matkustamiseen, viinin ja ruokaan. Yrityksen ajatuksena on tarjota asiakkaille ainutlaatuisia ja autenttisia kokemuksia sekä Suomessa että Italiassa.

Auktorisoituna Helsinki-oppaana Vino Tours and more:n omistaja Maddalena, jonka juuret ovat sekä Italiasta että Suomesta, tarjoaa opastettuja kaupunki- ja ruokakierroksia neljällä eri kielellä ja tyypillisimpien nähtävyyksien lisäksi hän näyttää mielellään myös paikallisia helmiä ja Helsingin salaisuuksia.

Viinillä on aina ollut erityinen paikka Maddalenan sydämessä ja hän maistattaakin niitä rennoissa viini-illoissa. Maddalenan suonissa virtaa viini, sillä hänen isovanhempansa ovat Italian Valpolicellan alueelta ja hän pääsi jo hyvin pienenä tutustumaan viinien maailmaan vietettyään lapsuutensa Veneton ja Alto Adigen alueilla. Hän myös kouluttautui viinimestariksi vuonna 2014.
