Helsinki, Finland
We’re pushing the pedal on our lowest carbon-footprint experience – a bicycle trail that begins in Helsinki, with our first stop being a beautiful old villa where we enjoy a fine lunch. Bellies filled, we ride through the Finnish countryside towards our home for the night – a guesthouse set in the centre of a herb plantation. The guide at the house leads us on a tour where we learn how to grow herbs at home. The next day, we cycle to Porvoo to explore the city at our own pace. In the evening, we join hands with the local chef and put our knowledge of herbs to the test while making dinner together. The next day, we return to Helsinki the way we arrived, or take a bus or ferry instead.
