Finland: Savonlinna Opera Traveller Reviews

This was an exceptionally well-organised, all-inclusive week, relaxed and fun but with memorable music events (Kuhmo chamber music festival; two superb operas in the famous Savonlinna castle)and visits to out of the way places, including Sibelius' house. The choice of restaurants was delightful and first class.

I have the highest praise for our two tour guides who remained on top of things throughout the trip while remaining relaxed and fun and caring. The amount of research they had done before the trip, their tireless attention to detail and the choices made for us were exceptional. I felt very safe and looked after and free to join in or not as the mood took me. Given the first class nature of everything on the trip (hotels; restaurants; opera tickets, etc,) it was very good value for money.
