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.

Well organized Tallin tour - The instructions were very clear and Zoe was quick to respond to all of our inquiries. From hotel pick up to drop off, the whole trip was so organized. We had a private tour with Anastasia who was able to show us all the important highlights of Tallin including restaurants serving local medieval food. Overall, we loved the experience!

Great day in Tallinn - Anastasia gave us a perfect overview of the importance and rich history of Tallinn. She drove us first to see some highlights in the city. And then took us on a walking tour of the old town. I would definitely recommend this tour. It was easy to manage. And a delightful day. Then we had time to shop and have a leisurely lunch before returning to Helsinki.

Great place to visit, bad logistics. - Tallin is a wonderful place to visit! The pickup and transfers worked well. But once in Estonia, the bus that took us around showed up very late, then when we were supposed to meet him again, he was late again. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly but she could not understand us when we asked questions. I would recommend doing this but be prepared for logistical challenges.
