12 presidents' guided tour of the Summer Residence of the President of Finland.
There are guided tours of the gardens and estate everyday in the summer - but this 'the 12 presidents' is a special tour to commemorate Finland's 100 years of independence. The tour is on Wednesdays only - at 1pm - and available in Finnish, Swedish and English.(13€) It was really interesting and informative - with snippets of information about each of the presidents and their time at the summer residence. No need to book ahead - and groups are divided to be 35people or less. Note the gardens are open to the public (free) on Friday evenings 6-8pm only.

Nice park but too little history!
The park is beautiful and the one-hour visit was entertaining - even too much, as we would have wanted to hear more about the history of the summer residence and the Finnish Presidents, rather than their cats and dogs. It was clearly targeted to the families with kids coming from the Muumimaailma... :)

Beautiful but not so big as one would expect
We participated an hour guided tour to this park, for 13 EUR it is quite expensive to my taste. The tour was good and professional, but I was somehow expecting a lot bigger park. The park reminds me of central European castle parks, but even smaller. However, there are a few photo spots one should visit.
