Things to Do in Tallinn
Wondering what to do in Tallinn? Start in the UNESCO-listed Old Town — a maze of cobbled lanes, medieval merchant houses, hidden courtyards, and viewpoints over the red rooftops. A guided walking tour brings the legends and history of these streets to life.
Beyond the Old Town, Tallinn’s museums tell the story of Estonia. As a licensed guide at Seaplane Harbour, Vabamu, the Estonian Open Air Museum, the Tallinn TV Tower, and St. Nicholas’ Church, I guide you through the exhibits and the stories behind them.
Have more time? Day trips from Tallinn reach forgotten historical sites, coastal villages, and Estonia’s national parks. Tours run year-round in English and Estonian. For private or custom routes, get in touch and we’ll plan an itinerary around what you want to see.
