Amazing tour experience - Start to finish such an amazing tour! Communication was very easy getting to and from the ferry and finding our guide in Tallinn. Every stop on the tour was beautiful and our guide was super knowledgeable about the history of Estonia! She was also very patient and helpful taking our pictures to capture the memories. When the tour ended and we had time to ourselves to explore she left us with great restaurant recommendations. We got lunch at Olde Hansa, the food was amazing! We had plenty of time to shop and explore before going to our pickup location which was also very easy to navigate. Once returning to Helsinki we had an issue with our taxi leaving before we could find it. We were able to contact the company via text (how we were told about both taxi pickup info) and she was extremely helpful finding a new taxi, things happen and it was not her fault at all but she was very helpful and apologetic. They had me send the taxi receipt to reimburse that ride. A great company to work with, and a great city to explore!

A great way to see Tallinn - Everything was so well organised. From the moment the booking was made to the end of the day trip, it was so well planned. Our guide took us to places we wouldn’t have seen had we just walked around and knew her city well. Tallinn is a beautiful city. I can recommend the company and this tour.

Visit to Tallinn is a must - A day trip to Tallinn will crown your visit to the Nordic countries. It is a charming city with lots of history. Our guide have a fascinating count of the life under the Danish rule on the one hand and the Russian occupation on the other. Old Town has been beautifully restored and has architecture rivaling that of France. The tour was well organized with seamless transportation. I highly recommend Vegan Restoran V on Rataskaevu 12, for lunch.

Day Trip to Tallin - Tallinn is a beautiful city. The ferry boat to and from Tallinn is very comfortable. The guide, Julie, was knowledgeable, but she seemed a little rushed. What made the trip amazing was Zoe from Helsinki Tours. She kept in touch with us during working hours and off working hours, to make sure the hotel pick up was adequate and so the pick up from the port upon our return. Everything worked like a clock. We strongly recommend this tour. It was an amazing day.

Amazing Helsinki > Tallinn day trip - This was a group tour where we were the only people who booked so it turned in to a private tour around beautiful Tallin. All transport was included: hotel > ferry > destinations > ferry > hotel... and was communicated perfectly. Not once were we worried. Dasia, our guide was fluent in English, happy to answer any questions and so engaging. Her knowledge of her home city was 2nd to none. We had the best day and didn't feel like the 13hr day that it was. Tallinn itself is a wonderful city and without Dasia's info we would have missed so much and not had the experience the destination deserved. Would 100% recommend, it's not to be missed!

A must do while in Helsinki! - An awesome day trip from Helsinki into Tallinn. The tour includes a round trip ferry ride which was on time and pleasant. Once in Estonia, our guide was great. He had a deep knowledge of the history of the country and was very approachable. We toured Katherine's palace and the local park which were beautiful. After that we went to old town and toured several churches and through the stone streets eventually ending up in the town square. This area is absolutely stunning and full of history. At the end we had several hours of own time where we could grab lunch and tour around a bit on our own. A really great day which was run exceptionally well.

Nice day in Tallinn, smooth transfers! - We enjoyed the day in Tallinn! Hotel pick-up to start the day was an excellent feature, and we did not have any issues with the ferry trip either. We were in line early enough to grab a seat on the boat (it does seem that the ferry line oversells the trip), and even joined in the Bingo game! We met our guide Julia easily, and boarded a small bus to begin the tour. It turned out the the "three hour" tour included a visit to Kadriorg Park, a nice feature that we had not been expecting. Then we headed to the "old town", but it felt as if we were rushing through the tour there - and also that we had plenty of time overall. Our guide seemed to be in somewhat of a hurry most of the time, and often had to stop to allow the slower members of the group to catch up. There was plenty of time for some shopping and lunch at a very relaxed pace (plenty of interesting - though somewhat overpriced - outdoor spots from which to choose). Meeting place for the return to the boat had been clearly described, so there were no issues with the return, as we were again lucky enough to find a seat, and watched the Olympics during the return trip. Helsinki Tours easily handled an issue with a taxi problem upon our arrival, directing us to engage our own taxi, for which we were promptly reimbursed. Overall, I would say we enjoyed the day, but it felt a bit overpriced considering our rush through the tour, and the amount of time you are actually on your own. But if you want stress free transfers, I can recommend this tour.
