Excellent day trip with Paul ! - We had an unforgettable full-day trip to Laheema National Park with Paul! Our journey began in Tallinn's Old Town and took us through breathtaking stops, including stunning waterfalls, a historic captain's village, and a charming fishing village. We also enjoyed a lovely lunch at a seaside family restaurant. Paul's deep knowledge and passion for the region, along with his excellent English, made the experience even more enriching. The countryside was beautiful, and we would highly recommend this tour over and over! The 7-seater minivan was in excellent condition, and Paul’s expertise truly shone throughout the day.
Thank you, Paul!

Tallinn First Stop! - Paul is an amazing tour guide. If you have a thirst for knowledge of the area this tour will satisfy. Whether you find yourself in Tallinn for business or pleasure either the day trip or food tour is highly recommended to orient yourself to the culture. I learned so much during my tour which gave context to everything I saw and experienced afterward while in Tallinn. Paul also does corporate tours if you need to coordinate a custom tour that will create lasting bonds and understanding of this amazing region. Many thanks Paul!

Needed a few modifications - This was a good trip but wasn't aware there was so much walking! The guide gave us a wealth of information. We were group of older women who could not physically do that much walking. Our guide did make some adjustments to help us with the accommodations.

Abominable attitude - Since Saturday I warn about the dishonesty of this organizer. He planted us as recently as Saturday, August 17 and remains unreachable. The Tallinn tourist office turns a blind eye to its practices. I asked Get your Guide to remove the tour from their catalog. Especially don't book. I'm not the first.
This man owes me money and I will leave my comments about him all over the web.:(

Useless - No one picked us up and the tour operator did not respond to contact from our group nor from Viator. This appears to be an issue from this company based on other recent reviews. Do not book this.

Ghost society, to flee! - Nobody at the rendezvous! The tourist office informed us that this company no longer gave any sign of life, no longer answered the phone, and that every day people found themselves, like us, victims of the failure of this operator. To be absolutely avoided!

Scam ALERT - Nobody came at the meeting point. We were waiting with a family that have also booked the tour with this company, the only difference is that we did it through Viator. We hope to have our refund through Viator asap (it’s been 2 days and we still don’t have news from Viator, and of course, neither from the company) because this was definitely a scam.
This company was deliberately posting and unposting the ad. That was a red flag. The day before we send them a message, nobody answered. Second red flag. Nobody picked up the phone. Nothing.
Please don’t book anything with them.
