The tour was really great. We were going to Haapsalu by car, because nobody else registered for this trip on this day, so it was just the four of us and our guide. We all enjoyed the trip a lot. If we would have done this on our own, we would have definitly missed all the nice places. The 49 Euro are deifinitly good invested :-) It was my first trip with Tallinn Travellers and I´m sure that it will not be the last :-)

Description

From a nuclear missile base to a mysterious old manor house, there are many things to discover on a day trip to Haapsalu. Once the resort capital of Estonia, it’s now a hotspot for Finnish spa enthusiasts as well as the favourite town of most Estonians.

On this tour you’ll see Western Estonia’s beautiful nature and coastline, well-preserved ruins of a medieval monastery and Haapsalu’s picturesque promenade. You’ll also get the chance to discover long-forgotten castles and an abandoned nuclear missile base.

Our young and entertaining guides will show you places that you would never stumble across on your own and share personal stories about Estonia from the perspective of the local youth.

All of our day trips are for small groups of up to eight people. You’ll be driven around in a car or minivan.

The Haapsalu day trip was also great, our guide Mart was really enthusiastic and funny, and again had a lot of information about the sights, history and general life in Estonia. Haapsalu might be better during the tourist season, but the big castle there was very impressive (and unexpected). The side-trips were great too, more ex-Soviet sites, some beautiful coastline and countryside, and even a spooky abandoned manor house.
I enjoyed the Laheema National Park and the Western Coast tour on 20 and 21 Oct and can't recommend them highly enough. Mart and Auerilia were enthusiastic, informative and more than happy to answer lots of questions! Their passion for their country and sharing their own personal pespective is clearly evident and if you want to escape Tallinn for the day, this is definitely the way to do it!
