Itinerary
Tallinn is the best-preserved medieval city in Northern Europe boasting Gothic spires, winding cobblestone streets, and enchanting architecture. Once home to wealthy merchants settling from Germany, Denmark, and beyond, Tallinn Old Town today is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike, with restaurants, bars, museums, and galleries bringing much life to this historical city center. Unlike many other capital cities in Europe, Tallinn has managed to wholly preserve its structure of medieval and Hanseatic origin. Due to its an exceptionally intact 13th-century city plan, the Old Town was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, joining the ranks of the world’s most recognized landmarks. Here you'll find original cobblestone streets dotted with medieval churches and grandiose merchant houses, barns, and warehouses many of which date back to the Middle Ages.

Our driver from Riga, Latvia to Tallinn, Estonia was an awesome guy and great to chat with. When we arrived in Tallinn he introduced us to our tour guide and gave us a specific location to meet him. It was also nice because he double-checked that we could contact him (he called my phone while I was standing next to him to ensure the connection worked and I had his contact info). Out Tallinn tour guide was also great and very informative, she was absolutely wonderful! Overall- both driver and tour guide were amazing people and very kind! Highly recommend!!
