Helsinki: Stones & Slices – Raasepori Castle, Ekenäs Old Town & Pizza Tasting

Your day begins in central Helsinki, where you’ll meet your guide and set off toward Raasepori Castle. Built in the 14th century, these atmospheric ruins are perched on a rocky outcrop, surrounded by peaceful countryside. You’ll walk through centuries-old stone corridors and learn about the region’s medieval history.

Next, take a short drive to the charming coastal town of Ekenäs (Tammisaari). Dating back to the 16th century, this town offers quiet streets lined with colorful wooden houses, seaside views, and a laid-back vibe that feels a world away from the city.

To round off the day, enjoy a curated pizza tasting at YLP! – Your Local Pizza – known for creative seasonal toppings and local ingredients. Rather than ordering one dish, you’ll sample a selection of their best flavors, shared among the group.

This is the perfect mix of history, culture, and modern Finnish food in a single, easygoing day.
