Starting from the end of the story, we provide an introduction to the historical background of the soviet occupation of Estonia at the symbol of Estonian independence, the “Statue of Liberty,” centrally located in Freedom Square. On the Soviet tour, we will tell you about dramatic and humorous issues and memories (including pictures from the time), which will stay with us for the whole tour.
Tallinn Song Festival Grounds
Heading towards the Tallinn Song Festival Grounds, we pass the former Headquarters of the KGB at the legendary Hotel Viru and buildings that represent Stalinist architecture in Tallinn. Stopping at the Song Festival Grounds, we will try to give you a feeling of the emotions that filled the stage in the late 1980s when the Singing Revolution took place here and the Estonian people sang themselves to freedom.

Barit our guide gave us a wonderful insight to what life was like in occupied Estonia. A wonderful non-rushed experience.

If you're interested in Soviet history and the legacy it has on Estonia then I would recommend this tour. I was particularly interested in the abandoned Soviet military sites in the forest. Also if you're not fond of crowds I would recommend the winter but make sure you bring a thick jacket, hat and gloves.
