Five stars! - A medieval fairytale come to life. Tallinn’s Old Town is breathtaking, and the tour is a lovely way to learn about its history. The weather can be a bit unpredictable, though!

We booked 2 hour tour in... - We booked 2 hour tour in Tallinn for the last day of our 3 day trip. I wish we booked it earlier. We learned a lot from our tour guide and would be nice to have time to come back to certain places and explore more.

This tour was the best... - This tour was the best city tour of Tallinn we had during our short stay. We took advantage of it due to our 2100 flight departure so it turned out to be a great afternoon activity. Maria was excellent and her knowledge of the city was quite deep. We really appreciated just how well-planned the route was (especially given the cold).

Old town Tallinn - Great being escorted through old town. There are so many “passages” you would miss on your own, even with google maps!

Tallinn Treasures - We had a wonderful afternoon exploring Tallinn with our guide Max. He was very knowledgeable about the varied history of Estonia. Mac kept us engaged with stories about various things we saw like a random truck in a park! Tallinn is beautiful and has preserved its history well.

Did not get the tour I booked, but it was still a good one - When I showed up for the tour, the guy told me that I was going to be on a different tour. It was a general tour of the city. The guide (Max?) was amazing and I had a great time. It was just not what I booked.
