Not universities, but polytechnics / universities of applied sciences (UAS). Academic universities do not offer tourism programmes as such... tourism and hospitality studies are generally taught at the UAS's.

There seems to be at least this one offered in English...

...but the snag is, that for all the UAS Master's programmes you need three (3) years of relevant work experience after your Bachelor's...

The university Master's do not have that requirement, but see above - they do not have such programmes you're perhaps looking for either, not even in Finnish. (Not that you couldn't maybe work in the field of tourism with say a Master's degree in entrepreneurship or such like... depends. But they do not do special "tourism programmes")
