En Junio - Julio de este año decidimos realizar un viaje junto a mi novia a 4 países de Europa divido en 7 paradas. Una de nuestras ciudades obligadas era Helsinki por la arquitectura y diseño, no obstante fue mucho más que eso, ya que la cultura, los paisajes y la gastronomía nos enamoraron de esta maravillosa ciudad. Además es importante destacar que este tour con NOMADE Toursim fue por lejos nuestro favorito de todo europa, la calidez, lo profesional y el carisma de Catherine nos hicieron sentir como en casa. Es más ya agendamos para el proximo año ir a conocer Tampere (otra ciudad de finlandia), ya que por tiempo no pudimos, sin embargo Catherine realizo la gestión para que podamos volver y asegurarnos de tomar nuevamente un tour con ella!!This is probably the best tour of a European city that we have ever done!
