Experience
The guided Alexander's tour on Vallisaari Island, just off the coast of Helsinki, offers participants a marvelous opportunity to explore the island's unique nature, maritime and fortification history, and learn about its past as a residence for pilots and the military.
Vallisaari is a tranquil island located near the renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site, Suomenlinna. The Alexander's route on the island spans approximately 3 kilometers, leading visitors through its interior featuring ponds, groves, and meadows, and up hills to the coastline and the island's fortifications.
The tour is designed to be accessible, welcoming everyone to join. Electric wheelchairs can navigate the route smoothly, although for manual wheelchair users, we recommend bringing an assistant for assistance, especially on inclines. Visitors with strollers and small children are also encouraged to join.
During the summer season, regular transportation services to and from the island are available. The journey from Market Square takes approximately 20 minutes. Upon request, we can arrange separate group transportation to and from Torpedonlahti Pier on the mainland.
