Luxury Hosting & Guiding
WHAT?
Luxury Hosting & Guiding offers guided experiences all over Finland. A guided experience can be a day trip to Helsinki with its sights and restaurants or a nature trip to the beautiful Finnish nature.
Each guided experience is designed just the way you want it.
​
A guided tour includes guiding, hosting, and programme planning, as well as the necessary arrangements such as table reservations, tickets, and transport. A luxury experience is the result of. professional organisation, service, hosting and guiding. Our hosts are always well-trained, knowledgeable and offer help and advice on all aspects of your visit.
TO WHOM?
A guided experience is ideal if you want to explore a particular city, for example between trips, or if you just want to spend an enjoyable day at a particular destination. A guided experience is also suitable for a family, friends, or a larger group of friends.
WHY?
There is so much to see in Finland, but much of it is isolated and hard to find. With our network, we can quickly and easily create the kind of guided experience you want, so you don't have to spend time planning your visit. The cornerstone of our business is a genuine desire to help and to meet the individual needs of all our clients.
HOW?
The Luxury Hosting & Guiding service works by you filling in a request for quote form via the contact page, after which we will contact you with a quote and possible additional questions. Once you have accepted the quote, we will send you an invoice and a schedule, programme and other necessary instructions created for the time of your visit. When your tour date arrives, you simply arrive, and our host will be there to meet you. Your guided tour experience will progress with your host throughout your trip, who will guide you from place to place and take care of all your wishes.
Founder of LHG - Pia Kurkela
Hi, I'm Pia. Founder of Luxury Hosting & Guiding.
I have been working in the travel industry for years.
During this time, I organised many events for domestic and foreign clients. Since 1996 I have been an entrepreneur as a wellness consultant organizing different activities and recreation days for companies.
​
My activities have always been based on well-planned and
organised entireties. I have organised sports and wellness trips for my clients at home and abroad, where I have acted as a trip host.
In the past years I studied for a professional qualification in guidance services. During my studies, I realised that Finland lacks an operator that combines guided tours, tourist destinations, hosting, and all other
services that customers need under one service. I wanted to fill this gap and for this reason I founded LHG.
I want to offer both foreign and domestic customers a quality guided tour experience, where all the details are taken care of in advance and the client can enjoy without extra work.
I implement packages where I can guarantee a good service and a quality customer experience.
