A great day in Estonia

5.00Roman was an outstanding guide and clearly passionate about the history of his beloved hometown. He answered all our questions and shared great stories and information about the city of Tallinn. This was a wonderful way to experience Estonia. The logistics of taking the ferry and being picked up at the harbor in Tallinn were extremely smooth and user-friendly.
Real fun with a great guide.

5.00We had a great experience on this tour. Our guide, Irina, was knowledgeable and provided a thorough explanation of each site that we visited. We had four kids under 10 along for the tour and Irina was incredibly patient with us. Having never visited Estonia before, I knew very little about the history of Tallin. I am so glad that we didn’t attempt to tour by ourselves and instead booked this experience. We left with a deep appreciation of the rich history of Tallin and the hospitality of the Estonian people. 10/10 recommend.

5.00Irene was a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable and switched on to the needs of the group. We had a family with four well behaved young children and her ability to recognize what was needed was exceptional. Thanks Irene for making the tour pleasurable. You have a beautiful Old City.
