Overview

Our small group walking tour of Tallinn will take you through the city’s most captivating sights and offer spectacular views of one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval towns. Discover the rich history of Tallinn’s Old Town, hear fascinating tales of knights, merchants, and monarchs, and learn about Estonian culture, traditions, and the local way of life.
