Our tour started at 10am. The meeting point was at the Tallinn Tourist info center. There we met our tour guide Kert, and our fellow travelers. The small group style tour is the way to go. Our guide Kert was wonderful. Knowledgeable, personable, and a joy to visit with. And a very good driver. At all of our stops he was quite helpful. Never did we feel neglected. Our lunch stop in Paldiski was great. We had a fun time. We saw a lot, and learned a lot. The day went by quickly. Thanks Kert for the great day.
Very nice trip!

I really liked the landscapes and the cafeteria where we had lunch. The guide was always very kind and empathetic. We also had a wonderful sunny day.
You get to see a bit of everything from nature to Soviet history all in one relaxing day. Kert kept the day interesting.

The day trip was amazing - perfect for anyone interested in Estonian nature, culture and history. We also had lunch at a cozy, countryside-style Estonian restaurant, which was a charming addition to the experience. The tour guides Kullo and Kert guided us throughout the day and did a fantastic job. They were both knowledgeable about the region and its history, and managed the time really well. Kullo was the driver for my group, and he kept us engaged with great conversation and fun facts during the tour. Plus, I was impressed that he speaks Portuguese too and we could chat about other topics - at the end, we barely noticed that time flew by. Highly recommended!
Good way to see the country side.

This is an all day trip from Tallin. We stopped frequently, learned about Estonian history, geography, geology and the communist occupation. Koolu, our guide was very knowledgeable and answered our questions in a very thoughtful manner.
Great Tour

The tour guide did not show up. The meeting point was in front of the tourist information office. One of the employees there called the operator of the tour. The woman who answered the phone said they had neglected to arrange a guide for us! I did at least receive an email shortly thereafter indicating that a full refund was being processed.

We arranged for a private all-day tour to explore the highlights around Tallin. Our guide, Sten, was the best guide we have ever had. His logistics were perfect, and we were able to enjoy everything we wanted to see with plenty of time to enjoy all. Sten had encyclopedic knowledge of everything - culture, history, wildlife, geology, military history, and food. We especially liked looking for fossils at the base of the coastal cliffs and hiking up the cliffs around Rummu quarry. He was an excellent and safe driver. We even had time for a nice lunch at a lovely cafe that Sten recommended. Above all we want to thank Sten for going way beyond his duties because he helped us with a first aid urgency (something from the days before and not a result of anything we did on our tour). The entire day was absolutely beyond our expectations.
Beautiful countryside in Estonia
