Small Group Walking Tour of Vana Lugu Tartu Old Town
Overview

Mobile ticket
I'm offering my tour to everyone who wants to connect with the city of Tartu - we walk through the National capital of Estonia, and I share both history, the modern culture, and trying my best to build connections with Estonia. Why? I want to connect with people on my tours, so I keep group sizes small. This creates a more engaging experience for the whole group! I believe in personalized service, and my groups can tailor tours to topics of interest. We keep in contact throughout the tour too! And as always - Pay per fun! The best part is that you tip at the end of the tour based on how much you enjoyed it!

What To Expect
Ulejoe Park
I'll start with the basics: where I come from and why I'm madly in love with Tartu, as well as the tour's goals! I'll share a bit about the Estonian people, their identity, spirit, and fight for Independence, which made it possible for such a beautiful country to emerge and bloom!
Tartu Town Hall Square
We'll hit the road by crossing Arch Bridge and hear about the modern traditions and craziest, as well as talk about its grandparent—Stone Bridge, which was blown up by retreating Soviet forces. Once we reach Town Hall square, we'll talk about Pisa Tower of Tartu and symbol of Tartu - Kissing Couple fountain.

5.00Engaging, funny, full of interesting stories. You could tell he wanted to be there and was passionate about giving a great tour. Shared many recommendations with all the guests, from bars to hikes in nature. Stanislav’s depth of knowledge was impressive. Any topic that guests brought up, he could talk about. We learned so much and enjoyed a nice walk around the city. (Whoever wrote the one star review did a great disservice and should amend or delete it.)
Great Experience

5.00Stas is an amazing host with a great sence of humour and really knowledgable. He even gave us Estonian treats! Getting a tour was a great decision because Taru is a small City and the tour helped us understand the history and decide which parts we'd like to explore further
Very informative and entertaining!

5.00We really enjoyed this tour. It was interesting and entertaining. Our tour guide Stanislav was very well informed and able to combine knowledge with a good portion of humor. Tartu is a city with a very rich history and this tour was perfect to dive deeper into it. We also really liked the side notes and anecdotes, eg about the university prison. Full recommendation!

5.00We love doing walking tours all around the world and this was one of the very best. The guide, Stanislav, combined historical information with modern insights and quite a bit of humor. The two-hour tour lasted well over three hours but we didn't mind since it was all so enjoyable and interesting.
You probably can't experience Tartu more authentic and engaged

We explored everything from the iconic landmarks to charming hidden corners that we never would have discovered on our own. By the end of the tour, we felt like we had a deep connection to the city and its unique spirit—all thanks to Stanislav’s expert guidance.
