Our dedication to the sensitive and specific environment of the Baltic Sea goes deeper than organizing the tours. The sea environment has been part of Juho’s life for years, first as crew member on the cruise ferries on the Baltic Sea and later on by working onboard the international cruise liners. Nowadays boating along the coast of Helsinki is a summertime hobby.
To keep the Baltic Sea environment available also for future generations, Yoo-hoo! Tours makes a donation from each tour to the John Nurminen Foundation and their important work in preserving the Baltic Sea and its fragile ecosystem.
