About Aleksi

I grew up in a city rebuilt almost entirely after 1944, so I still point out to viewers which buildings actually date from before the war, since there are very few. On camera I stand on the exact line marking the Arctic Circle and explain what changes there through the year, from constant daylight in June to weeks without a sunrise in December. I studied local history and worked one winter at Arktikum before guiding full time. I keep the pace steady and let the light itself, whatever it is doing that day, set the mood of the call.

How reviews work

Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking". We check reviews before they appear and publish positive and negative ones alike; we remove only reviews that break our rules (insults, personal data, unrelated content). Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
