Highly recommended to visit and stay for a few days
A very well preserved and restored old historic town surrounded by the original ramparts. Cobblestone roadways with very limited vehicle traffic. There is enough to visit to fill three to four days. Restaurants and cafes are aplenty. We really enjoyed staying in a collection of old buildings converted into a hotel.

Enjoyable, informative walking tour
Svetlana was a wonderful tour guide. She took us all around Tallinn’s Old Town, answered our questions, and gave us suggestions on places we could visit after the tour, taking into consideration our time constraints.

Victor Was A No Show
No one was outside the gate and outside the port to meet us. We waited until 10:40 AM and no one showed up. we caled the telephone number given to us for the local travel problems and the answer was that this phone number was not in service at that time. We called multiple times. This is to request a full refund since no one was out outside thePort and no one was answering the phone because the phone was not in service.
Operator response
Dear Max,
The group was in the place on time, they waited for you, guide was calling you by cell, Whatsapp and sending messages. Your phone was not reachable so the tour started without you.
Despite the fact we did all in our power to reach you, we have fully refunded the tour that you did not show up for
We will be happy to give you a discount for one of our tours when you are back in Tallinn again.
