We had an enjoyable Learning experience with our guide Anastasia. She was attentive, accommodative, friendly, with good command of the English language, and we easily understood her explanations of the places we visited.

We had a private walking tour of the old city in Tallinn, which was a real treat. Our guide Sergei was friendly and knowledgeable, and the tour was well planned and historically interesting.

A three hour waking tour of Tallinn with related transport. The guide was friendly and helpful, and waiting for us on arrival. I have two elements of gentle feedback: It was very expensive for what you get. We could’ve organised it ourselves for much less (we learnt that afterwards). Also, there was too much emphasis on going into shops known to the guide. We didn’t go for shopping but for history, art, culture, architecture and views. Would’ve preferred a slightly different emphasis and more than 3 hours for paying almost four hundred pounds for two.
Magical town

Our guide was fantastic. She took her time and showed us many special spots we would have missed if she wasn’t there. We loved the shopping and many fabulous places to eat. I would go again.
Great guide, poor tour organizing

Guide Irina was great! But the tour never mentioned it was a full day walking tour… even from the dock to town they expected us to walk when every other operator was taking a bus/ coach. We booked our own taxi to get there with the guide Great place to go but definitely not worth the price
Delightful historical tour

Leaving later on a Sunday means less time for souvenir hunting after the guided tour. Erina was a great source of historical knowledge and suggestions for dining options. Our jet lag meant eating on the ferry was not good to save time for our own wandering. Eat before arrival if taking a later ferry
Very good

Learning the history of Estonia from a local was powerful. What an incredible story and beautiful place. I’ve been to over 30 countries and this is truly unique.
Great experience overall

The tour overall is very good. It was raining in the morning and we met our driver at the hotel Kamp (should be in our hotel due to our mistake). There is direct communication via whatapp. The ferry experience is really good and the ferry has many comfortable chairs with many dining and drinking options. There is a big shopping store on board also. It is as like mini cruise experience. Our local tour guide Jelena is very nice and knowledgeable. She went with us about 2 hours, which seems shorter than expected 3 hours. The old town is amazing given the rich history of Tallinn.
Enjoyable

The city is beautiful. The guide was well informed and made visiting the city a well worth while excursion. I saw a plethora of sites and views of the city. The guide gave a great deal of history and detail.
