Meeting location: Your meeting points are located right outside of the cruise port gates. Private tour operators are not allowed to enter cruise port area in that destination, therefore you need to WALK OUT from the port area. Our guide is waiting you outside the gate.Note that the distance between the ship and the gates varies in different ports in Helsinki:at Hernesaari port about 656 feet = 200 metresat West Harbour about 820 feet = 250 metresat Katajanokka about 328 feet = 100 metresMake sure to be at the meeting point 15 minutes before the scheduled start time. Please be punctual. Out of consideration for the others, the guide and driver will wait only 10-15 minutes after the scheduled departure time to begin the tour. The last thing we want is for anyone to miss their tour.
