Our sustainability work

We are committed to providing experiences responsibly – for both our guests and the environment. In May 2025, Cajsan Helmi was awarded the Good Travel Seal certification, which you can learn more about below. We are also in the process of applying for the Sustainable Travel Finland label, contributing to the goal of making Helsinki the most sustainable travel destination in the world.
