Tip from tour guide
Scandic Meilahti is just a four-minute drive away from Meilahti Arboretum. Ullis (a fellow tour guide) and I had an amazing time exploring the beautiful private garden and the unique 31-year-old special group garden in Puolarmaari. We were mesmerized by the sight, touch, taste, and fragrance of countless remarkable trees, bushes, plants, and flowers. The people we met along the tour were more than friendly, and they shared stories about their lives and passion for gardening.
