Such a lovely place - Such a lovely place, the old town is full of cobbled streets and outside bars/ restaurants. There's lots to see and do, several steeples to climb a lovely square to sit in. We were there for 3 nights which was perfect, would go again and recommend as a city break.

Our guide was great - This tour for us started out on a shaky basis. We had very mixed up directions as to how to get to our meeting spot and we were late getting there. The tour had left but the guide when I called found us and we continued with them. It was a beautiful city and she did a great job at the end, she escorted us to a taxi which she paid for to get us back to the ship. Over and above what we expected

Wonderful tour! - Our tour guide was Svetlana and she did a wonderful job! We felt more knowledgeable about Tallinn after our tour and very much fell in love with the town. We learned about the churches, the wall, old/town/new town and even some current stories of Tallinn characters. We highly recommend this tour and Svetlana!

Disaster with the app - I signed up the tour on the Viator app, but had to cancel three hours later because of a schedule conflict. Even though I canceled well before the deadline to do so, I was charged for the trip, and the tour organizer tried to contact me to find out where I was.
