Kullo (hope i got spelling right) was fun and good to be with through the day. Made the experience fun for all. Lunch was at a lovely restaurant- good choice by Kullo. Knowledge of nature and his child like enthusiasm is refreshing
The participants in this tour were five people: myself traveling alone, and two couples who spoke English. I'm not very good at English, and I couldn't understand all of the driver's explanations, but he explained Estonia and Latvia very politely. I am very satisfied with being able to travel from Tallinn to Riga while visiting tourist spots that are difficult to visit alone. The photos taken at the border are treasures. Thank you very much.
Our guide Laura was entertaining and informative. Loved the sightseeing breaks enroute. Highly recommended.
We had a fantastic guide for our sightseeing transfer tour from Tallinn to Riga. Enjoyed all of our sightseeing stops and was pleased to travel with a small group in a van. Well worth the money.
Our family, including 3 generations, had an amazing day with Matiss as he took us from our hotel in Riga to our Airbnb in Tallinn! We felt like we were traveling with a family member! :) We stopped at the beautiful Vitrupe Beach in Latvia, enjoyed a nice hike through the dune pine forests and Tolkuse Bog in southern Estonia, share a yummy lunch in Pärnu, and enjoyed terrific conversation all throughout. Matiss is a great ambassador for the area! We highly recommend this transfer tour!
This is a great way to travel between cities with some sightseeing along the way. We got to visit castle ruins, other towns and get some nature in at the sandstone cliffs. Lots of good info and it was fun. Price point was right. Recommend it!
I loved the sightseeing trip from Tallinn to Riga. The driver / host was very personable and did a great job sharing his country. I much preferred seeing the country side and the stops along the way. Granted, this type of trip / excursion is not for everyone. Those needing entertainment and fast paced excitement might be bored, but those wanting a deeper dig into Estonia and Latvia will enjoy the day.
Great tour where you got to see a little bit of everything. Castles, nature, small towns, bobsled facility and ate at a great brew pub for lunch. Kullo made the trip fun and interesting. And we got transportation to Riga!
nice itinerary. although the itinerary says trip is 12 hours. Our trip completed in 10 hours. I am wondering if any stops were skipped or not ?
Hi I am sorry for the difference! Actually, nothing was skipped. We changed the itinerary a bit last year and crossed the border at the new location, which saved us some time. However, with a 10-11 hour tour, the main key factor is road works and lunch, which sometimes helps us save time but sometimes takes a lot of time away :) Last year there were so many speed limits due to the road works that the tour was ca an hour longer :( So we have communicated the tour to be rather longer than shorter so that people won't book anything for the early evening :)
We had an amazing day! Kullo was knowledgeable, passionate, enthusiastic, and engaging. Our day with Kullo was the highlight of our trip!
