We loved the tour had and are so thankful we booked a private tour and did not go through the ship! It was easy for our small group to tell our guide we needed more or less time somewhere and ask questions based on our particular interests. When we wanted to make one extra stop, it was no problem. The guide was informative and passionate about Estonia and told us personal storied and things that we never would have learned in a big group. We are SO glad we found this and were able to book it for our day in beautiful Estonia!

Description

Your local guide will lead you into a captivating world heritage site with its maze of cobblestone streets and fascinating stories bound to feed your curiosity with endless knowledge. The heart of the city is a lively hub influenced by centuries of tradition and unique Baltic Sea culture as an ancient merchants port.
The itinerary continues with an introduction of historic and modern Tallinn as you stroll on narrow streets following the fortified town wall and lookout towers. The centrally located Town Hall Square, still a vibrant gathering place for many cultural events held throughout the year, is home to the only preserved medieval Gothic Town Hall in the Baltic and Scandinavian region. You will also cast a view on the tallest spire in the world at the time of it’s construction which belongs to St Olav’s church and Tallinn’s only fortress church, Niguliste, founded by German merchants in the 13th century. The upper old town, also known as the Toompea Hill, treats us with even more enchanting views of beautiful coastline and a medieval city straight out of a fairy tale. Highlights along the way include the Estonian Parliament and St. Mary's Cathedral.

Great experience!
We had a great experience. The tour guide was excellent and was capable of answering all of our questions and had great insight in Tallinn’s history. We had a lot of fun. It was great to see the old local restaurant's and shop’s. We tasted good beer.
Short tour in Tallinn old town
We booked our tour with very short notice, but anyway we got it. The guide, Eva-Maria, was super. Her stories about places what we visited during our tour, were interesting and succulent. Visiting Tallinn I highly recommend Eva-Maria and her company, you will get a memorable experience.
