Visite de la vieille ville de Tallinn et des tunnels du Bastion
Description
Nous vous accueillons dans une visite privée de notre belle et unique vieille ville. Tallinn est l'une des villes médiévales les mieux préservées d'Europe et donc inscrite au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. En vous promenant dans des rues pavées, vous vous retrouverez dans un musée en plein air avec des expositions extraordinaires telles que des raretés historiques et architecturales. À travers des histoires passionnantes, nous vous ramenons au Moyen Âge avec des croisades et des moines, des nobles et des rois, des marchands de sel et des guildes, des chefs et des prisonniers, des maîtres-artisans et des apprentis. À l'époque, l'attaque était une préoccupation constante, donc comme toute ville médiévale respectable, Tallinn a ses murs de bastion et ses passages souterrains. Après une visite à pied un Guide organisera l'entrée et vous conduira à explorer les anciens tunnels du Bastion. Pendant la période soviétique, les tunnels ont été modernisés. Vous verrez certains des anciens équipements restants de cette époque, ainsi que des parties d'installation qui conservent encore un aspect médiéval. À la fin, veuillez admirer l'art de la pierre sculptée.
Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
La vieille ville de Tallinn est divisée en deux zones: la ville basse et la ville haute (également appelée Toompea). Ces deux villes étaient autrefois séparées par des portes, presque comme deux villes différentes. De nos jours, la combinaison de la ville haute sur la haute colline calcaire et de la ville basse à son pied forme un horizon expressif visible de très loin, de la terre comme de la mer. La ville basse (all-linn) est l’une des villes médiévales les mieux préservées d’Europe, également inscrite au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO depuis 1997.
Les mystérieux passages du Bastion, datant des XVIIe au XVIIIe siècles, s’étendent sous Toompea et font partie intégrante du système de défense de la ville, aux côtés de la muraille et de ses tours. Entrez dans les tunnels du musée des fortifications Kiek in de Kök pour découvrir leur histoire fascinante et admirer Tallinn par le bas.

Heivi was wonderful! We really covered all of Old Town and it was a great walk! She's so knowledgeable and friendly and answered all my questions, I highly recommend it!
Hello! Thank you so much for your feedback. Have a nice and safe trip!
We had a wonderful tour with Heivi Pruuli and she was extremely knowledgeable and shared many areas of Tallin which would probably be missed on a large group tour. The pace was brisk and she included a short playground stop for our 9 year old. If joining from a cruise- the tour start location is about 28 min walk or Euro25 taxi ride from the port.
Hello, Heide! Thank you for your feedback. I wish you a wonderful journey in Europe. Best regards to your family.
Met with Heivi outside the Town Hall and she held a clear sign with my name. We were a group of four and had travelled together. Heivi was extremely knowledgeable and also had a lovely sense of humour. The tour was full of very interesting facts with some fun facts thrown in. She made sure we had plenty of opportunities for comfort breaks etc. The tour itself is a lot of walking which is great but be aware it is important to wear comfortable shoes. Some wonderful views. Heivi also pointed out a lot of interesting places to visit another time. Highly recommend this tour.

Hi, Lauren! Thank you so much for your feedback.
Heivi is an amazing guide! We learned so much from her. She is so knowledgeable and so much fun to talk to. Through her, the history of Old Town came alive! I love how she took us to tiny hidden places and explained how special they were. We also loved how she talked of the history of Tallinn, from the ancient to the modern. She is a wonderful teacher!

Our guide Heivi was wonderful! She was very knowledgeable so we learned a ton about old town. This would be a good tour for early in your trip to get the lay of the land and understand the local history.
Hi! Thank you very much for your feedback and I wish you a pleasant journey.
Tour of Old Town and Bastions is a wonderful way to explore the layers of history and hidden gems beneath the surface of the city. It’s more than just a casual walk through picturesque streets—it brings the Old Town’s medieval walls, towers, and underground passageways vividly to life with stories and context you wouldn’t uncover on your own. Our guide, Heivi, was engaging and knowledgeable. She added a personal touch weaving together history, legends, and modern connections that made the past feel alive.
Hi, Joanne! Thank you for your beautifully worded feedback. Best regards. Guide: Heivi Pruuli
