Guided tours

We organise public guided tours in Finnish on weekends and, from early April to the end of September, from Wednesday to Sunday. Private guided tours are also available upon request for groups of up to 25 people. During the tour, you will discover the rich history of Tamminiemi, the former home of Finland’s presidents, with a special focus on the years when Urho and Sylvi Kekkonen made it their home.

From June to August

Public guided tour in English every Saturday at 13.00. Public guided tours are included in the price of the museum ticket.

From late June to August we organize public guided tours in Finnish from Wednesday to Sunday at 11.00, 12.00, 14.00 and 16.00.

We do not accept advance bookings for public tours. Each guided tour can accommodate 20 people. Groups may book a private guided tour, as we cannot accept groups on the public tours. The group size of a private is 25 people.

It is also possible to explore Tamminiemi independently outside the guided tours. Our expert guides can be found at our exhibition facilities and will be happy to answer any questions.

Choose your preferred tour from the selection below. You can book a guided tour in Finnish, Swedish, English or German. You may choose only one language per tour. The group size of a private tour is 25 people. Groups of more than 25 people need to book multiple tours.
