Estonia Tour Packages

Welcome- Tallinn
- Tallinn welcomes you, an endearing medieval city on the coast of the Gulf of Finland.
- The capital of Estonia deeply surprises everyone who chooses to explore it - with one of the best preserved old towns in Europe, unique ethnicity and pure nature.
- The viewpoints on the hill are the best places to admire panoramic views over the terracotta-roofed old town and the Baltic sea.
- Today, Tallinn astonishes tourists with an amazingly complete medieval old town, especially in terms of defensive walls and towers that kept their authentic appearance since the 16th century. Narrow streets wend our way to the low town with the heart in the Town Hall square, its houses honed as if they were from a toy chest.
- Nearby we appreciate Holy Spirit Church with its 17th-centuryBaroque clocks, their clock face still telling the right time.
- We pay a visit to St. Nicolas’ church that hosts a museum, marveling at the Gothic and Northern-Renaissance art masterpieces. Looking at all this medieval abundance, the fact that Estonia is one of the most digitalized countries in the world is not the first thing that comes to mind.
- And this is just a start for your surprises in Estonia!
- Return to Hotel and Overnight stay at Hotel.

Tallinn & Outside
- Breakfast at Hotel.
- We begin with transferring ourselves from the medieval centre to Kadriorg, a Baroque neighborhood, famous for its green parks and villas of wealthy Estonians. But its main highlight is definitely Kadriorg palace and garden – the largest palace and park ensemble in Estonia. We stroll through the manicured park, some of its trees more than 200 years old. In the park we also find the Presidential palace, standing in front of the Kadriorg. The alley leads us to the Gulf where we are captivated by an enormous monument of a bronze angel with a cross. Here we find out that the monument was erected as a tribute to Russian sailors on the warship ‘Rusalka’ (‘Mermaid’) that sank in1893.
- To complete our image of the city, we delve into Kalamaja district, an eclectic neighborhood that recently has become the hippest quarter of Tallinn. Adjacent to the sea. After the independence Estonian youth decided to bring life to the district by transforming the rundown Soviet-era structures into trendy cafes, artsy galleries and contemporary cultural spaces. There vamped district is now one of the most happening places in Tallinn.
- After the city tour you have free time to explore Tallinn on your own.
- We advise you to visit the exceptional maritime museum Lennusadam, probably the most high-tech museum in the Baltics. For art lovers Kumu museum of modern art would be a real treat.
- Return to Hotel and Overnight stay at Hotel.

Estonian Coast
- Breakfast at Hotel.
- It’s time to explore some of pure Estonia, and the rustic Estonian province would be the perfect choice.
- At the outskirts of Tallinn we uncover Pirita convent’s ruins, a magnetic edifice of a female monastery. Once the biggest monastery in Livonia, built in the 1400s. Just next to it, stands the new nunnery opened in 2001 with the help of Finnish Order of St. Bridget and erected in quite a contemporary and unconventional style, strictly-lined and flat-roofed. Pirita Convents’ complex impresses us with an unusual composition of the new and old.
- Afterwards, we offer you to get closer to the everyday life of indigenous people, so we wander further, to coastal villages of the Viimsi peninsula. In the Viimsi open-air museum we familiarize ourselves with the traditional life of coastal communities. Ambling among these wooden farmsteads, uncouth boats docked by the beach and rocks by the shallow waters makes you feel like you are in a postcard, embraced by peaceful seashore ambiance. On the way back we make a stop by Pirita beach, where you will have some time to feel the sand and enjoy the Baltic breeze, peering at the expressive skyline of Tallinn.
- After coming back to Tallinn you have some freetime at your disposal.
- Return to Hotel and Overnight stay at Hotel.
