    Alex was an excellent guide. I had booked a group tour but was lucky enough to have Alex all to myself. She was engaging and informative.

    Elena was a fantastic guide, imparting a huge amount of information in a short period of time. We covered a lot of ground at a reasonable pace, so be prepared. At the end of the tour we had a sense of the history of Tallin, along with a good orientation of Old Town. This is not an in-depth tour, there is too much to see, but does give you a good idea of where to come back to and spend more time. Well worth it.

    Excellent tour of the old town! Very informative and well paced. Max (tour guide) was incredibly knowledgeable with an excellent sense of humour. Very aware of the group and gauged the pace of the tour accordingly. Super highly recommended.

  • Guided Old Town Tallinn with Alena

    Our guide Alena was wonderful. She explained everything we saw in much detail and tried to keep us out of cold winds and into some sunshine when she could. We toured both the lower and upper areas of Tallinn and even had time for a quick visit into the Orthodox Cathedral as parishioners prepared for Orthodox Easter. At times, she had to think to find the English to describe what we were seeing but she was very friendly and helpful regarding where to locate food and drink options in Tallinn as well. We found the tour to be an enjoyable learning experience.
