5.00It was a great tour to start a trip to Tallinn with a bit of Estonian history as well. My guide was very knowledgeable and knew everybody along the route. You'll be treated to history, legends, hidden gems and recommendations on museums, food and drinks, basically everything you need as a tourist in a new city. Cannot recommend this tour enough. Thank you Roman!

3.00Experience was good, but the guide probably left before time from the start point without leaving any message though there were only three of us in the group. Viator customer care was very helpful in making him contact me. Had a tough time in locating the guide and joining the group
Awesome Tour
